After Ms. Throckspartle sent down males, all players on last RBA World Cup entry were female. Most likely, Ms. Throckspartle will not be appointing any males next time 'round, either. So while RBA appreciates esteemed human comrades' motives in establishing a sporting event for females, RBA regretfully will not have players to spare for tourney.

Ah but the age old issue of who is better en or Women?
Men can pee standing up of course!

Theres no Doubt Women cant play Well in Sport but if you had a Team of Men vs a Team of Women id hope the Men would win.
Of course RP dosent work like that.

Since you don't seem to understand that the WC is multi-gender, I highly doubt you'll earn many future votes for WC hosts...

OOC-- Until women are allowed to compete against men in RL sport, we won't know, will we?

And a quick glance through the various historical WC RP threads will reveal that, not only have NSWC squads been mixed-gender for a long, long time (as LE has tried to point out), some squads, such as BA, are mostly or all-female. Though I like HC's RPs, I fail to see the point in having a women's WC. Maybe a women's American Football tournament... that'd be something new.

Just my two cents. Feel free to proceed.

I realise what LE is saying and i dont mind Women participating in the WC just like i dont mind your Apes or Whats his names Goats or Stars Dwarves or My Romanians and Hobbits.

I dont see a problem with A seperate World Cup and im not asking to exclude Women from the present World Cup.

Believe it's Danica Patrick. And she's doing quite well competing against men. Though more to the point, I'd like to see the WNBA dissolved and the players drafted into the NBA proper. Don't think the men in charge would ever let that happen, though.

Whatever it is, I can say with confidence that the EWCC would never take this under its list of affiliated tournaments as there is ZERO gender-block in the WC proper.

Olivia Breem, Claire Briscoe, Vanessa Carpenter, Jenna Raven and Cherry Garcia, to name but five, the first three of whom are in the World Cup Hall of Fame.

So is Eileen Dover, though, so I don't know how much water that statement holds.
