How much more are the men's medals worth than the women's in the olympics?

Question

I know that the men's medals are worth more than the women's (duh), but how much more?- 2:1?3:1?

Answer 1

Surely you must be joking....

They are the same!

Answer 2

Hilarious question... but I have to say that the 2008 Olympics has made me very happy with the improvement of Women's rights.  As a 20 year old male, it took me way too long to jump on the Women's rights bandwagon.  But watching the American women dominate the competition really makes me proud.  It just seems like the ladies are playing a lot harder and fierce.  They are much more fun to watch.

Keep kicking *** ladies!  You're earning us lots of medals and making the USA proud.

Answer 3

The same medals are given to male or female athletes.....maybe you're talking a bout from a moral standpoint and you dont wanna open that can of worms..

Answer 4

Your kidding right.  You are an idiot!  This is 2008!

Answer 5

I say they're worth the same.  One medal is one medal.

Answer 6

You're joking... right?

Answer 7

The same dude.

Thank god, there is no gender/racial/social discrimination in the olympics.
