Why is racism wrong but sexism right (in sports)?

3 points

You know I had planned a long argument stating we aren't really equal, but I got to thinking. Women can train harder than men to achieve the same level of fitness as them if that's truly the case. Certainly some men come to the game more adept at the sport, than others, but through training they all find a way to roughly equal things out. I think women should be given that opportunity if they want it, and can achieve it.

Women are already training harder than men and they have not even come close.

I disagree that no female is better than any male counterpart in sports. More importantly I disagree than no female can be better than any male in sports.

Same with black men in athletics.

Same with East-Asians in ping-pong.

Humans are a sexually dimorphic species, that is why many sports are separated by gender. It's not a matter of one gender being better than the other, it is simply the recognition of their differences.

Using that logic why don't we separate the work place, or the schools? Since, to a lesser degree, these are competitions.

Black people are better at running, Asians are better t ping-pong and white people are better at swimming, whilst brown people are better at cricket.We jsut 'ignore' these 'differences' right? ;)

You are nothing but a sexist bitch! Stop acting like a femmmist!

Because... Women are generally incomparable to men when it comes to sports.

not trying to deflate females, but women are less strong, in general, as compared to men.

while colour of the skin of a person doesn't decide whether they're stronger physically than a person of another colour.

i think that makes sense. o.o

White people are physically weaker than black people.

that is debatable. indians are black when compared with white. and they're not very strong when it comes to most sports.

there are many cases of the black people being more agressive, but i don't think that case works everywhere.

it probably depends on how a person trains, how much effort he/she themself put in the sport etc.

Some people think it's weird to touch the other gender.(in wrestling, football...)

It is hypocritical. Here it is 2015 and there are no female MLB players and no female NFL players.
