A 6th grade girls team from Kentucky was set to go for the year-end championship tournament, but was told they were banned due to fears boys teams might ‘retaliate’ if they lost to the girls team.

    Boys Basketball Team Kicked Out Of Girls League Championship After Defeating Girls Teams.

    If this headline would look like that and you would react differently, regardless of how you have reacted to the original, I think there is something wrong with you view.

        Explain why.
        My position, where hypothetical girls and hypothetical boys teams are being kicked for the same reason should be treated the same is I think the default one. If you think I should react to one of the headline different, tell me a reason, because I may not know one.

        At their age girls have a significant height advantage over boys.

        It’s literally the same thing, unfair biological advantage.
