Why are all sports not formally co-ed? Both women and men on the same pro team.?

Question

logically, without giving reasons that could be used the same way, to segregate people of different races or homosexuals.

Different races often have a variety of physical norms, should when say, than that people from Peru because they are typically small, are not allowed to play Pro Basketball?

FYI I am not asking for opinions but real reasons that could not be used to excuse any segregation.

If thats "fair" than tell me why there are not two basketball pro teams,
One for 5,11 feet and under.
And tell me why they can't decide if its fair are not even allowed to try out?

Answer 1

thats ridiculous
i would love to see a female of anysize and athleticism play football possibly as a wide reciever and let her catch a 5 yard slant and as she catches the ball have brian urlacher or ray lewis
rip her friggin head off if any girl ever did make a good play it would embarrass the guy and she would be destroyed from then on out and the only way it would happen in the first place was because they would lay off and let it happen cause they are afraid to hurt her.
heck lets just let midgets and blind paople play professional sports too they could use the force
and thats the truth

Answer 2

Can you see Lebron James or Kobe Bryant trying to hustle some offense against a couple of ladies? Can you Layla Ali trying to box with Oscar de la Hoya?
I'm a female, and even I understand how bad an idea that is. It simply isn't the same as racism or homophobia. You can take two guys of different skin color and match them up, and they are equally strong. You cannot take any female, no matter how athletic, and expect her to seriously compete in the NBA or the NFL or anything else.
And what is this about, if Peruvians are small they can't compete in the NBA. What, should we force teams to draft them, knowing that they don't play as well, just to be nice?
As much as we try to be fair to everyone, the fact of it is, if you can't do it, then you can't do it. Equal opportunity means everyone gets a fair shot. But if you have a shot, and you prove that you're not strong enough, then what else do you want?

Answer 3

They normally have different strengths as far as physical. Don't say well that shouldn't be used. Yes it SHOULD. Because a group of women playing a group of women is FAIR. Why should they all be co-ed as oppose to having seperate leagues as they currently do? I notice no arguement in defense of what you are asking for.

Answer 4

I don't know.
