    Why not. I think they can make the call as well as men and should be able to run down the field as well. I don't know about getting pushed around by a player though.

    I'll admit I was surprised when I saw the question and thought - I can't imagine this is even a question anymore.

    Of course female referees are fine - I can't see how it matters in the least.

    Isn't the real gender barrier that men and women don't compete against each other on the football field? Or the lack of mixed-gender teams? Not to mention gender-separated locker rooms and showers. Let's break down all those barriers :) Also, we need gay and transsexual cheerleaders in skin-tight shorts.

    Please no, on that last sentence. That would ruin everything good about the game.

    I believe they will do a great job. I think they should have mix sex Refs for all sports.

    It's called gender equality. Women have all the same rights men have, and to practice otherwise is discrimination and illegal under the law.
  • ktbates... John Wa... 2012/08/08 13:53:58
    ktbates2929
    no kidding society is not way too feminized they just now made a movie w/ male strippers & society still doesnt want a woman to be president.
  • John Wa... ktbates... 2012/08/08 18:30:10

    I would (like to) believe that society made their choice of presidents based on more then just gender based factors.

    And if I remember right, it was her own political party that shot her down, not america as a whole.
  • Twinky XZQZQ 2012/08/08 13:00:15

    Yeah you're right it's shocking - society is nearly 50% feminized! It's going too far!
