I grew up in a pretty rural area in the south in the 80s and 90s. And if a girl wanted to play a sport and there was no girl’s team nobody gave a shit if they played on the boys team. If I were to go back now those same people would lose their mind over the idea.
A lot of them claim that they’re fine with girls playing on the boy’s team because somehow the boy’s team is open to everyone (Air Bud rule) but the girl’s team is just for “real” girls because they have an inherent disadvantage. And this is from people who claim to be feminists.
