"I don't like females playing tennis. . . ."

When I think of the long list of female tennis players (including Billie Jean King who ate Bobby Riggs alive back in 1973), I find that this statement boggles the mind.

And then, of course, there is figure skating: hard on the knees. Both of my sisters were champion figure skaters, and from time to time they found that their knees were sore after a long practice session working on jumps.

And then, of course, there is ballet dancing: very hard on the ankles, and many ballerinas have developed micro-fractures in their lower legs. . . .

Poor fragile females. They should be packed in cotton and not allowed to move, lest they injure themselves

(My first fencing teacher was a woman. Small build, quite feminine, but she could walk through doors without having to bother to open them.)
