The US Women's National Team hero laughs at the idea that she should address the fact that little girls growing up now can lose the chances she had when they have to play against males.
Put into the context of just how big the biological differences are, by including details on how the women's national team performed when they wanted a tune-up versus a Dallas FC under 15 team. And that versus their results for the whole year against other women's national teams.
This is not to disparage women's sports. They're a beautiful thing that help teach the same great lessons that sports participation teaches for boys and young men. But the reality is that even the best women soccer players on the PLANET know perfectly well that a way to "punch up" is to simply play against exceptional regional boys teams.
But when politics gets in the way, reality is ignored. In fact questions that beg the obvious conclusion are not just ignored but laughed at dismissively.
So much for being a hero to little girls who want to play soccer.
