Same with most sports activities….individuals who haven’t any idea of bodily tradition, understanding of the DRASTIC distinction between women and men concerning power and energy manufacturing within the second of efficiency or who simply by no means carry weights or play sports activities don’t perceive this and perhaps by no means will.  Maybe they only ignore actuality interval. I have no idea, I favor to err on the facet that folks considering there is no such thing as a distinction in possibilities of accidents when males play in opposition to ladies are simply bookish nerds with zero expertise with sports activities, full contact actions, or any actual makes an attempt at coaching their bodily potential.

Volleyball is definitely the game I’ve probably the most private expertise with. I performed volleyball recreationally in undergrad, and was in the summertime volleyball league at Fermilab throughout grad college. That’s not the identical as prime aggressive play, but it surely’s one thing I perceive. The league I performed in was blended gender, and certainly, blended gender volleyball is commonly performed within the U.S. and elsewhere. I simply watched some right here to refresh:

Men are usually bigger and stronger than ladies, however there may be nonetheless a protracted historical past of aggressive mixed-gender sports activities – like blended doubles tennis and mixed-team volleyball. These have been round for a lot of a long time.

In coed volleyball, there are guidelines for equity and for security – however it’s nonetheless true that ladies are sometimes hitting again a ball that has been hit by males. According your security argument, coed volleyball ought to have an unacceptable degree of damage such that or not it’s banned, no matter any transgender points. I do not see any motion for such, although. I see plenty of such tournaments being held with no controversy.

I can not discover from fast search any concussion charges for coed in comparison with single-gender volleyball. I’m not claiming that I do know the speed is identical. But I additionally do not assume it is going to be off the charts as you declare.

Hey intellectually dishonest shitbag groomer, this incident the place the feminine participant was injured WAS NOT A COED VOLLEYBALL GAME. It was a recreation the place a organic male was declared a feminine due to bullshit transgender politics. Go discover some place else to inform your lies.

  There are co ed beer pong groups and darts competitions too for sofa potatoes to get some train.  Bringing a rec league up in an try and make a comparability tells me you might be as clueless as I stated you might be.    You even undermine your personal level by saying there are particular guidelines when blended….

There are totally different guidelines in event coed video games. However, the accident proven in your unique submit may legally have occurred in an ordinary event coed recreation, with a male participant spiking the ball which strikes a feminine participant midway again within the courtroom. There is a variant referred to as “reverse coed” the place males gamers cannot be up on the internet to spike, however that’s much less widespread. In my submit, I gave a hyperlink which reveals event play (not rec league) the place precisely these performs occur.

Hi, jeff37923. Sorry if I wasn’t clear. I used to be not claiming that the sport within the unique submit was coed.

My level is that coed volleyball video games are widespread, and generally (although not all the time) have the scenario the place a male participant can spike the ball that’s obtained by a feminine participant. This is related in estimating the dangers concerned in video games.

Jhkim is making good sense.  If boys taking part in in opposition to ladies in volleyball do not commonly injure them, there is not any motive for somebody to count on that letting this boy play in opposition to ladies was placing them in any hazard.  It may properly have been an entire fluke, the ball hit at simply the worst doable spot, and never an inevitable factor.  It’s volleyball, not boxing; getting smashed within the face by your opponent will not be an anticipated final result of taking part in.

That stated, the group with the women ought to have had the choice to say no to play in opposition to a boy in the event that they felt uncomfortable or in danger from it.  I’ve no objection to ladies competing in opposition to boys, so long as they go in knowledgeable.  Girl desires to play baseball?  Sure.  Football?  Great.  If she will take the hits, extra energy to her.  Same for boys going into ladies video games, as long as everybody agrees beforehand.  But they need to have the proper to not agree.
