Where's rockyroad? He usually chimes in here with a very well worded opinion that girls' and womens' games AREN'T easier than boys' and mens'. They are two different games. Refs who do the highest levels of men's ball aren't automatically qualified to do girls' or womens' games, they are only the best at the men's game. A ref can be good at both, can be the best at both, but being great at one doesn't make him or her any particular skill level at the other.
Thus, it's not appropriate to think of working up through the levels of girls' games to the "highest pinnacle of achievement, boys' games". If you don't like girls' games, fine. Don't do them. But don't degrade them by acting like they're just "training ground".
JR, when the OP very clearly states (no implication or hinting here) that girls' games don't get the best refs, he's being misogynistic and patronizing. When I point that out, I'm not being misandryistic, just realistic. OP thinks girls' games are LESS, LOWER, SUB. That's degrading to girls and women, and doesn't speak well of OP as a man. Nothing I said puts "men" down.
I don't have a problem with lots and lots of men, but you seem to take any comments by me about some men personally. But then, as you say, nothing changes, does it?
