What makes men's basketball more popular than women's basketball?

In: Basketball

[Edit]

Answer

Men are more interested in sports than women are. That said, men are more likely to watch other "alpha males" play basketball. Women are not exciting enough to men. When it comes to sports, men like to watch other men unless it is a feminine sport like synchronized swimming.

Answer

The ball is pitched faster, hit further and the players run harder. In general, the level of athleticism is higher with male athletes. It's just more awesome to see what some of those male players can do.
