Hello All,
I am currently dealing with a dilemma with my daughter where I had to move her over to a softball league versus keeping her with boys in a baseball league. Where she was currently excelling, but society tells her that she can’t play baseball and she needs to play softball. Granite I have another son close to age, and he plays baseball, so I am not one-sided here.
My dilemma I fully understand that there no women players playing in the MLB which is a male-dominated sport. But why? I know that their softball leagues and the All-American Gils professional Baseball League during the war to help baseball keep in the public eye in skorts. I am sure some of us watched the movie “A League of Their Own.”
The fact of the matter I that we are in the 21st century and the fact that my daughter is recommended to move to a softball league because she is a female and she should be playing with other women versus boys. My thoughts are if she can keep up with the group and is better then some of the boys I fail to see the issue.
I fail to see if women can play the post and where women are not required to be as strong or as fast as males should the this not be baseball? I feel that this sport should integrate women or start their league where they are not required to pitch underhand and can adhere to the same rules and regulations that males play. I genuinely wonder why society has not pushed or excepted that women can play baseball and not just softball.
what everyone’s thoughts?
