Mixed sports where the teams have a mix aren't the same as mixed sports where it could be a team of women against a team of men.

They are all open to all genders? No mens/womens comps? Swimming is strength related, possibly ultra long distance running?

I think you've got a handful of sports where women can compete - equestrian, shooting, ultra long distance running and swimming. The sort of events that take strength out of the equation.

My point was about other things than sports where there is no physical advantage. Can a women write as well as a man - of course she can no muscle mass needed.
I frankly can't see why you would allow M->F to compete in sports it just makes no biological sense.

Cubicles in changing rooms and toilets in Britain tend to be full length unlike in the US, so in some places you don't know who is next to you. I've been told already that a lot goes on in there I don't want to know or think about.

Originally posted by northernladuk View PostQuestion for the ladies to resolve a discussion me and my better half were having. She says womens changing rooms tend to all be cubicled already, not like blokes ones where you just doff off. She thinks the future is mixed changing rooms with everything cubicled. She's got a point but I still think that will put a lot of women off using them, specially at first until people get used to it. Even in cubicled changing rooms a woman isn't going to feel comfortable when the 5 a side blokes arrive. She disagrees.
Would the members of the forum that identify as female be put off by mixed changing rooms?
The only places that I've used that doesn't have cubicles are gyms and sports centres. Unless you are swimming you can just turn up already changed and go home in your kit.
In shops in the children's section and some swimming pools they do have family changing cubicles. So you expect parents with opposite sex children using them.
