This question has been bothering me for sometime now. And I want to know what everythings of this and why they have their opinion. I want to play pro football but everytime I try I get pushed away. Do you think woman should be allowed to play in the NFL?

I think that if a woman can play football and she is just as good as a man then yes they should be allowed to play. I think it is about time that men stop being so sexist we don’t live in the 19th century anymore. If woman can join the marines then YES woman should be allowed to play. If you have tried to tried joining the NFL with out success simply because you’re a woman maybe they are scared to get embarrassed that a woman can play better then them. I also think that if the NFL would allow women to play the sport then it might boost its popularity even more. It is correct that there is an all woman’s league but unfortunately they don’t get paid anything at all to play the sport. Money comes from their own pockets to pay for everything including their equipment. A lot of woman work 2 jobs raise a family and still find time to go to practices.
I think that either the NFL allow woman to play or recognize them in their own league and set something for them so that they can get the recognition.

Sorry not trying to be sexest but women can not go in the NFL.Men are just naturally much more athletic than women.Men are stronger,faster,bigger,and have better stamina than women.Also men have more dense bones and bigger muscles.Men are meant to play football.I would like to see a woman take a hit from a 250+ pound linebacker moving at 18+ mph.They couldn't,the woman would be knocked out or severaly injured.You can't just be anybody and make the NFL.You have to be a MAN and be a freak of nature.A woman who is a freak of nature still couldn't make the NFL.There is a reason why the NFL has and will never have a woman.

to play in the NFL you have earn a spot on a roster. is there any woman out there that can run faster, hit harder, block better, catch a pass better that a man that is of NFL caliber? football is a violent game at any level and i don't think that a woman is physically able to withstand the punishment that is meted out in an NFL game. Your question was "should women be allowed to play in the NFL. My answer is this. A woman should be allowed the opportunity to pursue any dream she has, but she must earn her dream. if she can compete with the men at the NFL level the fact that she is a woman should not keep her out.

They are. There is no rule against it.
If a woman can be a 300 pound lineman (or lineperson) I do not want the coach that doesn't take the best available players.

We should be allowed to do whatever we want. Although I wouldnt play football,it gets a little ruff. Anyway men have been saying women are not as good as men at lots of things for a long time and we keep proving them wrong.

No....I don't believe they should....Women are, on average, smaller and more fragile than men. They would get hurt much easier when they get hit at full speed by a 240 lb. linebacker! If women want to play against each other, then they should start a women's NFL.

No way a woman would never make it in the NFL. Its a man's game and a woman would never be able to be that strong fast or tough without taking steroids.
