poeple say softball is for wimps actuly it real;ly hard to drive a bigger ball and the pitchers can be fast and its hard to get the ball from outfiel to second or thrid. So people should watch a game and see what its really about .POeple should stop calling it a game 4 lesbos

I am a male & i have play in both adult softball & baseball leagues. Both require some skill. I have hit a baseball out of the park quiet a lot but have been unable to do so with a softball. I might hit it off the wall but never out.People think because the ballis bigger it is easy to hit. Not so. Because the ball comes in at a high angel you get a lot of popups. A for catching I have seen a lot of broken fingers catching a softball without a glove.Both gamesare fun & I am not considered a wimp. I also played semi pro football in the Atlantic Coast League.Got $55 a wk.1965-68.

Probably because a softball travels slower and it takes less athletic prowess to catch and hit.
In Chicago they have a local variation of 12 inch (circumference) softball. It uses a 16 inch softball called a "Clincher" which is it's brand name. It travels even slower though the air than a standard 12 inch softball and requires no mitt to catch and it's great fun for people who like to have a casual picnic game without busting a hamstring lol.
In fact, some baseball leagues in Chicago will play a Clincher softball game on the end-of-season picnic.
As a kid I was VERY athletic and preferred to play Clincher softball over 12 inch or baseball. Who cares what stupid people say anyway lol. The very act of saying softball is for wimps pretty much says it for me.."I will go over there and play with the friendly people....you stay here".

It think it's because you can play with women. You know there are a lot of men that are too sexist for their own good.
