Leave Women's Football Alone!!!
You are very invested in this and I understand your emotion. Good for you.
But THERE IS a load of irrationality surrounding this hyping up - a disproportionate and pretentious one - and people will continue pointing this out. Other than that , I'm not claiming the support and hype are itself wrong. It's the same people who are claiming to be 'just supporting' women's football who are sometimes bringing out the comparisons with the men's game. One recent example is the claim that the prize money needs to be equal to the men's game. What?? The men's WC is a world wide event - not remotely comparable to anything else. What rational basis is there for equating the reward for both, other than it being a political gimmick? Just like any other field - for example music - you deserve reward and hype proportionate to the objective level of excellence achieved - the entertainment and quality generated, not exclusively 'relative' to what other people in your field are achieving.
Its not a disproportionate amount of hype. Its the pinnacle of womens football, its the only current major football competition happening on the planet. People are attending these matches because they want to go, not because they have been fooled by some media hype or gender/politics agenda. They are going because huge numbers of them play or follow the game. They are going because the support for the womens/girls game has grown massively. You must have missed whats been happening the last 20 years.
Now you divert attention to someones claim that the prize money should equal the mens prize money. So one or two people are making that claim and all of a sudden the whole entire womens football scene means less to you???
You keep moving your goalposts to justify your view. You didnt address a single thing I mention, you just pivoted to another issue. Tremendous effort.
