I watched my brother's high school hockey team play a team with a girl on it, even though this other team had a separate girls hockey team. Now, after hearing many arguments on this issue, I guess the girl does have a right to play on the boy's team.
However, if that is the case, all the guys who were not able to make the team, should be able to play on the girls team.
However, feminists want it both ways. They want girls to be able to play with the guys, but also want as many girls playing these sports as possible since they know that if there were no gender classifications in physical sports like hockey and football, that at least 90% of the players would be men, due to inherent physical strength and physical aggression advantages.
This is wrong. Either prohibit girls from playing on guys teams, or get rid of gender classifications for sure. And if they get rid of gender classifications, what the number of female athletes drop significantly.
