Girls are allowed to play football.

I would agree with the physical requirments. If a guy who's ~210lbs like Priest Holmes has his career ended (not officially, but realistically) by a hit from 272lb Shawne Merriman, think about what would happen to the average sized woman. It would be hard to find a woman big enough (and fit enough) to take the punishment most football players do.
I'm speaking only on the professional level though. There was a girl on my HS team.

No they shouldn't. I'm all about woman's rights, but it's not fair to throw a girl on a football field and tell the guys to hit her. The guys will take it easy on her and it would cause all sorts of problems. No guy wants to put a huge hit on a girl, even if it is on a football field. If woman want to play football, start a women's football league.

No, I mean I don't know any girl old enough who would like to do that. I know some kids who are girls who would like to, but not anyone at the right age, so what's the point of letting girls play football if they're not going to even try?

Yes. If they are up for it, definitely. Once they have the helmet on, a guy wouldn't be able to tell the difference either way.
Personally, I have known 2 girls that have been on football teams. Both were really good too!

They should not play with men, because it's too dangerous. There should be a girls only football league.

I think that girls should be allowed to play football cause girls are tough and they can surprise you boys.

They should be able top play in high school and college. If they weren't allowed to, that would be against the law and the girl can sue for discrimination.
