Well Rocky, I have worked both Men's and Women's basketball in my career. I have attended NCAA Rules meetings for both genders. I have current officiating friends that are women's officials. I know officials that work D1 on both sides. I have talked to these officials about this and many other subjects. They philosophies are different. The fact that they use different language and bullet points to say what is important tells me they do not view the game the same. Also the President of one of my association constantly talks about Women's college and has shown NCAA tape over the years and they have different philosophies. I even work for a college assignor (I once worked for another guy that also assigned both) that assigns both Men's and Women's basketball and he talks a lot about the differences and he does not put Men's and Women's officials together during camp so the officials will not call the game differently or use different mechanics.
I do not understand your obsession with having to always validate your opinion as law or the only answer.

I do not need a button to tell me who to listen to and not to listen to. I have not worked a single college game with any of these people, nor attended any camp with these people as well. It is sad that people cannot stand up for what they believe in but have to have people on an internet site (who I have never met) back me up.
Peace
