I wouldn't disagree with any of the above. The issue in part however
Is when there is the call from those in the women's game (Megan Rapinoe, Toni Duggan, Alisha Lehmann) to have equal pay to the men's game, and I think everyone here is intelligent to understand the problems with that. So when those calls are made,.the quality of the football will be scrutinised.
As always with these things, it's a vocal minority and media making all the noise on both sides. Most people I know enjoy watching women's football and accept it for what it is.
