The "wussification" (first letter changed to keep it clean!) of America continues!!! "Beginning in September, at high school sporting events in New Jersey, telling opponents they “throw like a girl” could be a civil rights violation that ends up on the desk of the attorney general as part of a new policy announced Wednesday by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association." Article here: www.theblaze.com/sto ries/2013/06/21/new- jersey-bans-trash-ta lking-in-high-s 4951

If that phrase is banned..that exact phrase...just change it up:
 
You throw like a female
You arm is opposite sex-like
Go take your skirt off and throw like a man
You don't throw like a boy
Nice arm...Sally!!!
 
Girls can throw a ball and throw it well with strength and perfect form. This "throw like a girl" phrase has been around forever to jab at other boys, like boys have done since, uhhh, FOREVER.
 
What's next? Someone says "your momma wears Army boots" is going to land that someone in jail in Rhode Island?????

@jax, I doubt it since women are now allowed in combat roles and there is no shame in wearing those boots.
 
Of course, there's no shame in being a girl either. People who say those things as insults are small minded misogynists. And yeah, we live in a misogynist society and women can often be just as misogynist as men. It doesn't make it right.
 
At the end of the day, those types of comments speak much more about the type of person that says them than the person who is out there being an athlete. 4951

@KellyG:
 
No it doesn't. They are jabs, that's all. Nothing more. Nothing Less.
 
It doesn't say a thing about anyone. Goodness Gracious!!!!

They are said as insults. Do you not understand that? It's pretty textbook stuff here. 4951

You'd have to be an athletic male to understand. Are you?

@KellyG:
 
There are many reasons why I'm single and I'm 100% certain that is not one of them.
 
Then again, what's another one on the list gonna hurt?

I understand tht a lot of guys who says those types of things are incredibly threatened by capable women and that is why they use those insults. They question their own masculinity and equate female accomplishment with threats to their "manhood" and so utilize those types of insults as a way to keep women from competing. the acceptance of that kind of thinking is going the way of the dinosaur because real men don't need to degrade women with such nonsense.
 
And if you honestly think that those insults are merely jabs at a man's performance, you are woefully naive.

@KellyG:
 
That's incredible because I know of ZERO athletes who feel this way.
 
@Fallon:
 
It's pointless to explain. She has never been a male athlete and never will be. How naive of me to even think she understands.

@KellyG: I know a lot of women who say this have low self esteem and have trouble admitting they will never hold a candle to a man. Did you see hiw stupid that sounded?
