This is literally an attack on boys.


The reason title IX requires the same amount of money spent on women's sports as on men's sports is that girls shouldn't be deprived of the advantages of sport - leadership and accomplishment. That being said, if you allow girls on boy's teams then you must ipso facto allow boys on women's team. Subsequently, it would be interesting, for example, for an episode to have the entire Bulldog's women's basketball team at the school replaced by the 10 male players who didn't make the men's team but could physically outplay the women. Cause equality. Of course that would generate all kinds of hate as those women who were replacedd would be denied the opportunity to play, no matter how badly. IOWs, who ever Bella replaced on the football team at QB has been cheated of the opportunity to learn the benefits of sports. Any woman who has a son can see this, I suspect. Any woman who doesn't see this is raising a daughter who be quite likely to be a future unhappy bitter woman with no chance to find a "good man" thanks to her programming.

It's true, Title IX is reverse discrimination. Well, yes and no. But kind of.

If there are sports teams in the same sports for boys and girls, it's not much of a big deal. Basketball teams, volleyball teams, track, etc.

Each gender has a fair opportunity to compete against their own gender in a specific sport.

The problem comes when there are teams in differing sports solely for each gender. Field hockey is one. Softball versus baseball is another. Football is an obvious one. Ice hockey is another common one. Girls are allowed, encouraged even, to try out for the male team, while on the other hand, it is highly frowned upon for boys to try out for female teams.

But you're right, if males decided en masse to try out for a girls softball team, and the team selection process was done fairly, the team would end up being majority boys, if not completely boys. Likely, there would be an uproar and the boys would be discriminated against, because "It's not fair."

Title IX is in place to try and solve a problem of fairness, and its very existence does create some unfairness.

There are occasions where boys try out for, and play on, girls teams. Field hockey is one of the ones I can think of. From many years ago. But I'm sure it happens every year, somewhere.

Maybe you post things like this because being "attacked" is your fetish, hmmm?

I agree with you completely.
