Should Women Be Allowed to Play Football?
January 30, 2018
According to the Debate.org, 83% of voters said that females should be allowed to play football and 17% said that they shouldn’t. Not all men are built stronger than women. Women can be built stronger and tougher than men. There is a saying everyone is built different which can even mean females being stronger than men, so why can’t they play football?
I’ve been playing football for four years and let me tell you I love the sport. I play outside of a team because I love the sport so much. I think that boys and girls should be allowed to play it. I didn’t get to play this year because my parents don’t want me to get hurt, but stick with what you love I wish I could have tried to play more. Although I kept begging, and got to play an extra year because I stuck with what I loved, you should try!
Many people say woman shouldn’t be allowed to play football. Many reasons are girls get hurt easier than men. Several say it could bring the team down with skill. I don’t think because if a girl is the same skill as a boy on the team how would it be any different than him being good and her being good. Men are more physical than woman. An average man is built stronger than a female in this case football would be more of a man’s, although there I strong woman.
Most sports are there Is a boys and girls league for example like baseball I softball. Have you ever seen a boy playing volleyball I have! Why can’t girls play football! I think that if a lot of people don’t think girls should why do men play volleyball? Maybe we can make a girl’s league for football like how there is for softball and baseball. Why not a girls and boys football league?

Girls SHOULD be allowed to play any sport, one it’s basic rights and two they can do anything that boys can, they may not always be as strong but that doesn’t mean anything. You be you and don’t let anything or anyone stop you.
i’m female myself thanks

I play football for my high school. I can say yes it is hard but it is amazing. The people i play with might be bigger and stronger but that makes me work 3 times harder because i know that i can have the same strength as number 11 if i work harder. I stay an extra hour or 2 on the field to practice because I’m going to get better. Never let anyone put you down. You can do whatever you put your mind to. You got this!

I think women and girls should be allowed to play football. You would think that if you try out and your good enough you get to play. Sadly not all people think this but I personally believe that if you are a girl, tryout for the team, make the team, and get your chance to show the boys that you got skill.
BTW I am a boy

I feel that Girls should be allowed to play football and i’m a guy. All I’m saying is girls are strong and they can do anything they put their minds too, but what if somebody like me a 5’11 linebacker 190 hits a female full blast coming off a slant route. Is a female really ready to get hit like this? Or a female linebacker going heads up with a runningback can they handle get hit like that. But lets be honest here are some female football players that would absolutely give some men the business. Like females are just as capable as men at playing the sport. It’s really just a mind thing if you think about.

i am a girl turning 13 in a few months and i love football, but the sad thing is…..is that my mom wont let me play.. she thinks i could get hurt.. i just think its not fair.. i mean i get it how she is over protective but its my dream i really want to do this..and a lot of people are sexiest and think that girls/women cant handle it. but i think wrong. Girls/women can do the same things as guys can do.And for you people who think that is wrong than YOU are wrong. I may be young but i am smart when it comes to these things. I am raised to know these things. I truly believe in my beliefs. I just wish this could change.
If people disagree with me than its fine. but please read this…. hopefully this could change some thing.

Hey everyone as a girl I really don’t like football but I am very interested in cricket. In my opinion, girls should definitely be allowed to attend in the playing of professional football. Many girls tend to have a lot of fun and even if I try it I am sure I will be able to succeed in enjoying like other fellow football players. Thank you, warriors, for letting me share my response.

No women should not be allowed to play football in levels above 7th Grade football, many male football players have their whole careers ended in a brutal and gut wrenching way. Also by no means at all are Football Players average males. These guys spend most their week weight training, they are the pinnacle of human strength and skill, a woman can never reach that level of performance and power, it’s simple biology, men have more muscle mass and even if a woman somehow manages to get to that much muscle mass, the male would still be levels beyond her simply because of his testosterone. In conclusion watch a 5’4, 170 pound female try to tackle a 6’3, 245 pound male. It’s simply murder
