Just the facts.
Gender is totally different than any other classification. This is the reason there are totally separate leagues for basketball, baseball (or softball) track and field, and swimming to just name a few. Most of these sports are separate because Men in general are stronger and faster then their female counterparts. And because football requires power and speed and it also helps to have some natural physical ability (do not see too many women that are 6'5", 230 and can run a 4.4 forty). The truth of the matter, most boys cannot play football either when you get to the HS level. Either they are not big enough or not fast enough. Usually it is hard to see the field if that is the case.
So if this young girl is big enough, strong enough and fast enough she should play. But if she is just as strong as the people in the position that she is trying to beat out for that spot, then she better have more desire and a better work eithic. Because if I was stronger and much faster than the people on my team, I might still be playing football (and a couple other sports as well). It is not all about gender. Peace
