Why do guys think girls are not good at football????

Question

well i played tackle with a bunch of guys and they were like dont u want 2 hand touch and im like um..no. i can take it. i ended up being the only one like not hurt..(someone got a shoulder dislocated!) and s they would barely tackle me except once i had the ball.....it was really fun but still.......i say im not bad....

Answer 1

you know in actuality woman should be better that guys in football only because woman have better hand to eye coordination. But when you factor in the physical aspect of the game its just not going to happen. Men's bodies are just bigger, stronger and for the most part faster than women.

And if you want to kid yourself and think you can take a hit from a 200 lbs linebacker coming at you at full speed, hey more power to you....  

Answer 2

I don't think that.

Answer 3

because Girls break so easily.

Answer 4

because once you get into high school guys begin to put on a lot of weight and girls just can't get strong enough.  I honestly don't think a women could ever play any positions in the nfl besides kicker and that would even be a stretch

Answer 5

Because girls arent build for that kind of contact, and I dont play tackle with girls because Everytime I do i touch their b***s and they start complaining.

Answer 6

girls arent big enough to play football seriously

Answer 7

Since boys are brought up not to injure girls in any way they would feel like a d**k if they tackled u and you got hurt

Answer 8

idk y guys think that but ive had guy (who was on varsity football) tell me i can throw a foot ball really well. maybe because its like the only sport that ONLY guys play. cuz mostly every sport is for girls and guys.

Answer 9

I personally don't think so. In fact, we once had a Girl on our JV Team, but she eventually quit. But she ran over a lineacker, and boy did he get made fun of! No, Girls have as much competitivity as boys, but the basic stereotype of girls is that they don't want to get down and dirty and break a nail.. oh please...

If you want to play, take advice from Nike.... JUST DO IT.

Hope that cleared it up a little.

Answer 10

They were afraid of hurting you, so they only half-heartedly tackled you. Or else they weren't all that good. I think it was a little of both. I assume you're probably a kid under 13 and don't realize how different high school, college, and pro football are from playing with your guy friends in the backyard. If I was playing football, and I tackled a young woman who was maybe 5'10" and 165 lbs, big for a girl but still small for a guy, and she was laying there in tremendous pain, I would feel bad. It's only natural. For reference, I'm a big dude at 6'0" and about 270 lbs (and I promise you it isn't all fat).

I'll give an example: In a classic Big 10 football showdown between two conference powerhouses, Penn State and Michigan, in 2006 a Michigan defender knocked Penn State quarterback Anthony Morelli unconscious. Most of these defenders were the same size as me. And Morelli is 6'4", 220 lbs, and currently playing in the NFL. Morelli was a good, but not great quarterback, but definately no pantywaist (would often try to run straight through the defense if no recievers would open, and you get hit HARD that way). In case you're wondering, Penn State lost that game 17-10. And I'm pretty sure you're not as big or tough as he is to take those kinds of hits.

I'm not trying to belittle your athleticism or scare you here, but I'm just trying to tell you why they don't allow girls in the NFL or college football. Playing football with guys in the backyard isn't like actually playing football.

Answer 11

because yo were good because you can not touch girls so they would not

Answer 12

We say girls are not good because no girls play and if they do they will get hurt. Boys are tougher than girls it's just a fact. A girl has an advantage if she plays football with boys because the boys don't want to hurt her.

Answer 13

I dont care if girls play, because I will just keep running everyone over

Girls are meant to play no highr than high school, but if they want to play I have no problem with that, but in the past years in my league girls have been injured a lot

Answer 14

i know....i play tackle tackle football and im not the one who gets hurt...besides id say im pretty good....haha =D

Answer 15

Whether they are good or not, tackle football against the girls is a lot of fun!  

Answer 16

Guys have genetic advantages:

a) stronger bones and tissue

b) superior muscle strength ( NFL defensive tackles bench around 500)

c) superior size (most NFL linemen are between 6'3-6'8 and weigh 300lbs.)

d) superior speed (many tailbacks and defensive backs run sub 4.3 40-yard dash)

e) hormones that stimulate athletic competition

f) superior lung capacity and endurance

g) superior motor reflexes

h) no menstrual cycle

now all that being said, of course there are lots of girls who can kick alot of guys butts in pickup games. But as far as playing at the top level, they just have a significant genetic disadvantage.  

Answer 17

Becuase guys like that are irogant pricks... you should be able to do whatever the guys do... guys like that will eventually learn that girls can do what guys can do, but girls can do it in heels lol (heard that quote on tv)

Answer 18

if guys want to play real football then girls cant play because they are so.......so......breakable.
