Question

Why aren't there as many women jockeys?

Answer 1

As a matter of fact, I'm a girl and when I get out of college I'm going to be a racehorse trainer, just because I'm too big to be a jock. There's a site called woman on the horse or something like that and it's all about female jockeys! In fact, there's quite a few out there! I personally think that the reason there are more guys is because people are kind of sexist and sports like that they think "women can't handle it." That's bull....there are girls like me out there who LIVE for thrills! In fact, I know a guy who is a TB trainer and I've come to the conclusion that he's sexist cuz he wont hire me! (Boys my age, yeah! But not me....never seen a woman besides ME in that barn. My goal is to let him see me sometime in the future with my derby winning horse)

:D
