I wouldn’t be surprised if that occurs. Google Wimbledon tennis or any grand slam. Always lands on the women’s tab as default. Not even the wife watches the women’s tennis. Btw objectively I would think men are generally smarter if one was inclined to do such testing. 😉

well I wouldn't knw if one of the sexes is smarter than the other on average, but it is pathetic that when a situation arises that might demonstrate a difference, it is subverted. as for female tennis players, football players etc payments. why wouldt the payments be based on the gate income for the matches? after all it IS really show business.
I know. We are either in a capitalist society or communist. Sure, throw some extra to the girls to take into account physical limitation’s, and as a father of girls, if they can make ok living in pros sports great. but in the long run something going to give - some sports won’t make enough to pay everyone at the same level. Then I expect Governments, federal or state will chip in (bail out)(womens ministers). No male player is going out on a limb calling it out - particularly when they may already be on 10x the average worker eg football. Individual sports will be ok as their is only limited numbers in both sexes that make the money. Most just get by.
"Google Wimbledon tennis". I did it, and this time I got mostly men's pictures. I do know what you mean though - in general women's news dominates.
However, I use Bing as my default engine (because google as a company makes me puke), and "wimbledon tennis" made it look like a women's tournament, with snarling, athletic women dominating, with the public clinging to their daily results.
Apart from men/women, the google result was much superior to Bing.
I use brave as a browser. Though still google while brave develops their search engine. We can go deeper, and say you cannot find results in google that are considered “alternative”, conspiracy or whatever. It is quite alarming. For example research negative to covid, many other topics the Gov /MSM don’t like.
As a software developer I'm always interested in these discussions, and have tried many browsers and search engines over the years. My setting of Bing as the default balances several factors, but is always subject to review - and the recent "Wimbledon" search was a black mark.
When I've tried alternatives to the big two (google and bing) in the past, I've quickly given up because localisation has been weak, being centred on the US, but checking Brave I see that it's done a good job there.
Yes, getting around "shadow bans" on information can be tricky, and, in my observation, is getting harder and harder with Bing.
DuckDuckGo was first suggested to me about 10 years ago, and I've tried it several times but each time it's been poor for "localisation" and seems to be built for the US. When I search "Thai restaurant" I want to find the ones near me, not in New York.
Some people may like this because it means DuckDuckGo isn't collecting user info (as it promises) but for me practicality wins.
For normal use I recommend google or Bing because they've put so much $$$ into great search and a dynamic user-interface. Google is slightly superior, but Bing is good enough for me.
The problem with both of these is that their results have a left/woke/feminist slant which is not admitted and not quantified. I was quite surprised by Bing turning Wimbledon into a women's tournament! They also collect huge amounts of data about you, which again is unknown and unquantified.
Sometimes I've been able to find information with DuckDuckGo that I couldn't get from google or Bing. I'll also try Brave in the future.
@Charlie - that's very interesting about DuckDuckGo and "disinformation"! I'm seeing the usual suspects among friends and relatives talking more about "disinformation". It's the next wave, and terrifies me.
DuckDuckGo had been a long time favourite. Mid last year they vowed to cut down on “disinformation”?!. So Many of us moved to Brave. Firefox is another option.

Thanks for the tip on Brave.

I've been told to use DuckDuckGo but haven't really tried it very often. Have other people any experience of this?

Just flick through the channels on your TV and compare how many female presenters there are compared to males at any given time.
