They forfeited a game because there was a girl on the other team? Oh geez.

As a Catholic school we promote the ideal of forming and educating boys and girls separately during the adolescent years, especially in physical education.
Our school aims to instill in our boys a profound respect for women and girls. Teaching our boys to treat ladies with deference, we choose not to place them in an athletic competition where proper boundaries can only be respected with difficulty.

Yeah, nothing fosters respect quite like isolation from that which you are suposed to respect. :P

I think I remember reading about a study that showed that kids raised in single-sex schools for most of their lives were actually more sexist than the ones that were co-ed.

Isn't that pretty much the actual goals of these schools then?

I wonder how far back in time the Catholic church wants to go?

Far enough that women are property, witches & fags can be burned at the stake, atheist stopped pretending to be priests to molest kids, and the pope was the undeniable leader of the Western world.

There are a number of ways, though my favourite is simply to take them by surprise. They're just walking down the street, minding their own business when suddenly, WHACK! Penis to the face.

Not too far though.

That said, I've stopped trying to anticipate what people around here want a while ago, I've found it makes things smoother.

You should've seen the comments on the Yahoo article for this.  A lot of "OMG DOUBLESTANDARD!" comments about how "you know how girls would get if boys tried to join a girl's volleyball/softball/basketball team, so girls shouldn't be allowed on a boy's baseball team." 

Except it doesn't really work that way. Law requires schools to allow girls to participate in traditionally male sports if there is no girls' team for that sport at the school.

I think it might depends on where you live, or there is a a double standard if schools aren't required to allow boys to participate in  traditionally female sports (i.e. gymnastics).

Happened in my middle school.  I like how they got all quiet and shit when I called em out on it, too.

^ If by respect, you mean "paying them a backhanded compliment," sure. I'd like to see them try that with Franken Fran (the girl in your avatar).
