Because the sexist walls continue to crumble. And that’s something to celebrate.
why is any specific gender, in any arena of business, supposed to be guaranteed a job in that arena?

Not really arguing anything. Just said that baseball has traditionally been a man's sport, which it has.

Umpires don’t play.

I've read enough of your posts to know you are stupid (anyone who repeatedly uses elipses doesn't know how to write), but now I see you're also a [shirt]ty woman hater. There's no reason to believe men are inherently better umpires than women. The only reason there hasn't been a woman umpire before now is the backwards thinking you just exhibited. It's not about being guaranteed a job. It's about opportunity. Not a difficult concept.Goldfan wrote: ↑07 Aug 2025 09:08 amIt all about destroying the Patriarchy and really nothing to do with Equality.
