I believe that this conjecture is true. The women's U.S. soccer team has won colossal more medals and championships. The question that I wonder is why are the men more important? Well, they are paid to show up, even if they loose they get paid, but not with girls. To me, this sounds extremely injustice for the women soccer players who do much more than the men.

I agree 100% (plus strong use of vocabulary!)

Women are very powerful and deserve the same respect as men do.

Did you know that even sports pay woman unequally? In this text the author shows how USA’s women’s soccer team is getting an unequal pay. The author uses the difference in pay, how they are the best team in the world, and finally, hot the women’s team is the more valuable team.

First off, the difference in the women’s pay compared to the men’s pay is a big amount. In the text the author states “They claim they were paid nearly four times less than players on the U.S. Men's National Team...” and “It says that the women are paid $30,000 each for making the World Cup team, while the men are paid $68,750.” This shows me that there is a difference of $38750, but the women also claim that they are paid nearly four times lees then the men. Also, the women are being paid for less even if they are making the world cup. In conclusion, the USA’s women team is being paid less than the USA’s men’s soccer team. The author uses details that show the lack of justice for the women’s soccer team. The author talks about the phenomenal difference in pay, how the women’s team is the best, and how there is no true reason for the unequal difference in pay.
