Everyone is titled to their opinion.

So I’m not gonna disagree with what you said because it’s your opinion.

The only place in life today were boys and girls, men and women are separated in any type of competition whatsoever is sports.

You get in the work field and the women are complaining because they’re not getting in certain positions. They want equal chance at everything in the work field.

I’m old now but the laws were in place that they had to equally hire anybody who applied for a position in the work place.

I was right out of college and I saw help wanted sign in a athletic shoe department for women. I applied thanking hey what a great opportunity for me to meet and be around women and sell shoes. I was told I could not work there because I was a man.

So if we want a president senator congressman that is a female. Why do we have softball fields and softball‘s at a different type of game why don’t we all just apply for a basketball team and whoever is the best makes it.

I wanna watch the best sports I can watch. ESPN now owned by Disney which by the way ruined ESPN continues to cram down our throats as viewers women’s professional sports.

I want to watch the best sports I can watch and it’s not women’s professional sports.

If you’re gonna have sports divided then divide them men and women.

If you’re going to have men and women play on the same team and make all women and all men play the same game.

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard a woman can do anything a man can do.

As an athlete there are plenty of women that can out run me.

I think the point of the article was missed by this comment. Our current guv and legislature waste lots of time making laws to address non-existent problems solely to pander to a political base who they fear may throw them out in the primary. Personally I like women’s basketball and softball as a spectator as do many others. The fact their games get on non-primetime tv surely does not mean these sports have taken over the media. If you listen to OK sports talk radio you will not hear anything about women!s sports
