Women don't support women. Period
Ask anyone's wife who is her favorite wnba player and sit and wait..

Because people actually go to NBA games. People don't go to WNBA games. Salaries are direct results of how much money teams make.
No one cares about the WNBA it's a niche & a small one. Highschool football in just Texas has more people that care about it then the entire WNBA.
I mean I don't even give two shits about basketball or honestly sports period but I know millions do and markets set pricing based on demand. The WNBA is about as in demand as used personal hygiene products. Sorry, not sorry.

That's got nothing to do with women not supporting women. If someone's wife doesn't watch it, it's because the WNBA isn't entertaining or interesting enough to watch. Just because women playing doesn't mean that all other women owe them attention.
