Well it seems as if there are more differences between men and women sports than I may have initially realized. In shot put, men also use a shot which is almost twice as heavy as the shot women use. Maybe, it’s just me. I have been a tennis fan for a long time and the fact that women have always only played best of 3s is something that has always bothered me. Something for me to consider, anyway. Thanks all for your input.

They should play best of seven
Women use a different size basketball, different size softball.
In coed rec leagues for soccer i know you need at least X number of girls on the field at all times (like min of 3), kinda making the assumption all men are better than girls so it's an advantage if you have 0 girls on the field.
No contact in lacrosse for women (rule thats been in place for like 124yrs)
No 4-women bobsleigh, its just 2. Pretty sure it's because the thought originally was they couldn't push a 4man sled

Ok, fine, best of nine.
It's definitely a controversial topic. Looking over Nielsen ratings over the last 20 years for tennis, Men's tennis still tends to draw more, but there have been MANY times where women matches out draw the men, including huge finals. It's definitely closer than many think.
Part of the women appeal, is sex. I know that several years ago when women tennis was on the rise, the WTA suggested asking the women players to wear skimpier outfits, and they were slammed pretty hard for it. If the women want to wear something skimpy, they should, but they shouldn't be asked to by the association to sell tickets.
Also, I think Djokovic was also partly slammed that particular time, because it was an awkward interview. He did make a comment suggesting that women also "have to deal with their hormones and all kinds of different stuff", which many thought was a little offside.
All 4 of the tennis majors pay women and men the same payouts, and have for some time now. I also would prefer to see the women play the best of 5 sets. If that was the case, it would certainly be harder to make the case that men deserve to be paid more.

They should clearly play the same number of sets in my opinion. If the men continue to play 5 then the women should as well. If 5 is the right number of sets to balance out skill, endurance and keep fan interest for men then it should be for women as well.
I assume the distinction is based upon history and a belief that women could not handle the "rigour" of playing 5 sets?
I do not follow a lot of Tennis but I do follow Athletics (Track & Field) which has a similar history of restricting women to certain events. Up until 1972 women did not run anything over 800m in the Olympics and only recently have they added women's pole vault and steeplechase to the Olympics and World Championship. The multi-events are still segregated by gender with the men competing in the decathlon and the women in the heptathlon (7 events). The Hep was picked because of a combination of reducing the events and a belief that women could not pole vault.
Anyways, back on topic, play the same number of sets, and pay the players based off a formula that focuses on TV revenue and ticket revenue (similar to the NHL's HRR).
