Guys thinking they can do things better than girls

"No one really gives girls a chance because they think they are going to suck." Really. Where is it you aren't being given a chance? Title IX ensures that in high schools (at least the public ones, the vast majority) have at least as many athletic programs (often more) for females as males. In college, much the same occurs. And don't even try telling me WNBA players do not get a chance to practice :D. "See if it was the other way around and guys wouldn't be given a chance you would probably be as pissed off as us girls. " As a matter of fact I am not "given a chance." It has nothing to do with gender, I simply was rejected every time I asked my parents if I could compete in organized sports (notably football). You however are apparently in ice skating, which I presume is your sport of choice. So it IS the other way around, at least in our cases. I'm rather pissed off of course, but mostly about other things. :D "Its not fair that everyone thinks guys can do everything better. We can do everything just as well. And any girl could beat a male in martial arts if they tried." Contradiction. You say "just as well" and then say "any girl could beat a male," implying both equality and superiority at the same paragraph, and providing zero evidence for either. Find me a woman who can fight Fedor Emilianenko to a draw and I'll concede the debate. Fair is notoriously arbitrary, but so far the evidence points toward males doing sports (which are not of course everything) better the majority of the time. "In your last argument you spoke about Marion Jones. If males were caught doing steroids I'm pretty sure that alot more of them would be sent to jail then females." I don't see your point. Males are caught doing steroids, some of them are sent to jail, but mostly the suppliers. Marion Jones is in jail because she plead guilty to perjury, not on steroid charges. I am of course opposed to anti-steroid laws (for either gender) but that is a different debate. The reason more males than females take steroids is because steroids happen to work better with fewer side effects in male bodies. Why? Because they (some of them) are male hormones. Hmm, becoming more male improves sports performance, that's odd :D. "And as for the evidence for soccer and figure skating, its called watching tv! O o my gosh." Every time I have watched the world cup (the only soccer I watch) the quality of play is better on the male end. I don't watch figure skating. In any event, "TV" is not admissible evidence. Show me numbers, show me facts, don't just pretend a certain medium acts like you are right., because TV as it happens only shows what it wants to show, and is rather unscientific. You have provided no evidence through this debate, and the entire history of human evolution (e.g. males evolving to do most of the athletic tasks such as hunting, females evolving in a manner more consistent with having to account for children) makes your claim rather extraordinary and therefore requiring extraordinary evidence. This does not mean it will always stay this way of course... women and men are athletically closer to equality now than they were 100 years ago, and in the future may be more so. Individual women should do whatever they are capable of, and for some of them that may involve the same sports as men. But there is no reason to believe, and plenty of reason not to believe, that men and women collectively are exactly equal in athletic ability.
