Yes, but I don’t think they play on the same teams at that age.
Does he shower with the team?
Remember Bobby Riggs? He made women's tennis what it is today by putting on a show.
Women could never actually compete with men on a tennis court or most any other sport for that matter.
I might get in trouble for this but...A couple weeks ago I toured the GE jet engine plant in Wilmington, NC. As I marveled at the machinery and engineering I whispered to my host, “Men did this.” He knew exactly what I meant.
I love women but it was men that built this country. There was a time when men went out to build things, buildings, bridges, railroads and a lot of it was done to impress women and probably half of it would not have been accomplished if it were not for women. Notwithstanding, men did it.
Best chefs-men. Best authors-men. Best musicians-men. Best artists-men. Best doctors-men. Best scientists-men. Best mathematicians-men. Best athletes-men. Best engineers-men. Best architects-men. Best soldiers-men. etc. etc. etc.
The other thing that struck me during the tour was the attach on the achievers that is taking place in this country. And any attach on achievers is an attack on men.
While, I guess the divide between the US and Europe is even deeper than I thought.
We have 2 teen boys. They would NEVER play sports of a team for girls.
And I can’t think of a single one of their friends that would, either.
