Is this the only time people collectively support Women's sporting events?
Just a strange observation.

the Olympics are the only time every 4 years I even consider watching sports like figure skating, curling, skiing, etc - be it men or womens.
how often is there ever a time that the public even knows when they should be collectively supporting or rooting for a womens hockey team, bobsled racer, cross country skiier, or some other sport (men or womens) that doesn't have enough exposure for us to care?

We watch curling all the time - both men's & women's teams.
I was in Montreal a few weeks ago for the Scottie's tournament of hearts (national women's curling event). It's not as widely supported in Ontario / Quebec or further East but curling is huge in the prairie provinces.
If we had a women's wnba team I'd totally watch

Figure skating is a fucking joke. When is there not a judging scandal?

the womens curling final was exciting. so much emotion there. Especially when sweden screwed up that final rock and handed it to Canada. The mens final was just a bloodbath and just really not that great.
Womens figure skating reminds me of Jerry Springer. Jerry! Jerry!
Tonya Harding, crooked judges, and fixed results.

Could it be because none [that I know of] have modelled for Maxim?
When UFC finally introduced women, Rousey and Tate almost instantly posed for Maxim.
