I love how they frame it , the female is always a "girl" and the male always a "man" . One of the repub candidates here ran an ad that said her Democratic opponent wanted to let men go into the locker room with your little girl. We have to push back at this framing.
I'm going to add, when I was a kid, like 9 or 10, I played softball with the boys as did other girls. Because I was skinny and long legged I ran faster than the boys. I also hit straighter with good arm strength from playing on the monkey bars so much. So I don't see the big deal.
