Have you ever played a sport?

Female athletes are programmed to believe they cannot compete with men. One of the many reasons why they believe this is the fact that there are different leagues and sports for boys and girls and men and women. If you don't think that watching a woman compete against and beat 1/3 or 1/2 of the greatest male golfers in the world would be empowering* to female athletes and their supporters, then we have come to the point in the conversation where I have to conclude that you don't know shit about sports.

*And you should watch the interviews of the men who played with Michelle Wie after she consistently beat the hell out of them off the tee.
