CMV: In women's basketball, the hoop should be lowered.

It's a matter of fact, that, on average, men are taller and stronger than women. This is perhaps the main reason that most sports are divided into men's and women's leagues.

The WNBA has been around for almost 20 years now, and for its entire existence it has been sadly, comically unpopular. While there may be many reasons for this, I think the biggest one is that women's games are much less exciting than men's games. While both divisions have a heavy focus on fundamentals and smart playmaking, men have the added bonus of being able to execute ridiculous, awesome slam dunks. Women, on the other hand, have layups. So. Many. Layups.

An easy fix, I think, would be to lower the hoop for women's games. With a lower hoop, women could enjoy the same hoop height to player height ratio as men, enabling them to pull off sick dunks. In my opinion, this would make women's games more exciting, making it more fun for the average viewer to watch and increasing the popularity of the sport.

What's wrong with my thinking here? Change my view!

EDIT: If any female basketball players read this, I'd love to hear what you think!

Would gyms and playgrounds need to be equipped with baskets of two different heights?  Although this change could be made at the Olympic and professional level, one of the big reasons for basketball's popularity is how easy it is to put up the same size and same height basket in cities around the world - whether you are in a fancy gym or a remote schoolyard, a basketball hoop is the same.  Players learn to shoot at a 10-foot basket, and it would be extremely awkward to have women play with a shorter basket in organized competition while having to playing with a taller basket on the playground.

Women's soccer goals are the same size as men's.  Women's tennis courts are the same as men's.  Having one universal standard makes a sport much more accessible to everyone.
