I like this idea for one simple reason...the cost of grade school has EXPLODED because we have to maintain the two, relatively equal money pools for each sex.
Put these all together and then the women will ride the bench in every single sport, BUT they will be allowed to play alongside the guys!
The only girls who will get playing time are those who are TRULY gifted and can outplay the boys...but they will be “on the team” and “in sports”.
“The only girls who will get playing time are those who are TRULY gifted and can outplay the boys...”
Not sure here. We live in a world of competition. But the excuse was for the opportunty to compete because there were no programs for the girls. When they started opening up funds to create girls’ only programs are they not discriminating? Another problem was the same funds were being used so it also effected the boys’ programs with less expense being applied and in some situations programs either not being created or others removed. If the girls are in it for the competition, then compete with what is provided. And I agree with you in that if they have the capacity to play, then they will get their chances. But school sysems if they are to do the job complete cannot cut funds to create earmarked programs for certain people that already may be provided. Do we cater to the rich or race based or religious based programs. That’s the ret And if the program is going to be provided, then it either is coed or both genders get one. Then we’ll see how much the federal government is going to shell out for activities that are in a vast majority of the cases not being considered for a profession.
And besides, the equal rights amendment only guarentees equality for both genders. What’s more equal than competing coed...in all sports provided?
