[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 660497, member: 39190"] SA women generally aren't into sports as much as most 1st world countries but I suppose we are only barely a 1st world country if at all. You won't hear anything about the women's world cup here. Literally, not a single mention on even the most obscure media source. I noticed on the Common wealth medals table as well that SA 'd lie 3rd overall if you take out the women's medals for every country but drop down to 15th if you take away the mens' medals. C'mon, SA women, step it up! I have to say it is more a cultural thing than a testament to our women's abilities. EDIT; Although maybe it has nothing to do with the 1st/3rd worldness of the country as I see Nigeria have 0 gold for the men but 6 for the women.. [/QUOTE]
