Let’s look at the facts…

Girl playing on a boys basketball team = PLAYING UP

Boy playing on a girls basketball team (or Jamie Nared playing on a girls team) = PLAYING DOWN

So allowing Jamie to play on a boys team is allowing her to move up a class and become a better player.

You simply cannot compare this to a guy playing on a girls team.

And by the way – if you read the blog post above, they didn’t have a problem with her playing in the league until she scored 30 points in a game. All of a sudden, there was a gender rule.

So it’s OK if girls compete on guys teams, but not if they make them look bad?

That’s where the problem is my friends.

But then again modern feminism isn’t about equality – its about seperate rights above and beyond.

Forget ego, forget esteem. If a daughter could beat my son at basketball – great. My son should practice more. But please feminists — stop pretending like there isn’t a double standard!!

Should she be allowed to play with boys – absolutely. But by saying this you are only confirming that boys basketball is better than girls basketball. Is that really the message that you want to send to the other millions of girls with big dreams to play basketball?

Just so you know, in 47 states, the high school sports associations ban boys from having the same rights as you want to give her.

That includes not only when the boys are bigger than girls, but any boy at any time – even when boys are smaller in middle school.

Why does she make GMA when she has to live under the same rules the boys do? Why is the fact that a girl is subjected to equal rights a major news story?

Double standards anyone?

Please tell me how a girl playing on a boys team is detriemental to boys? (because the obvious ego-issue)
