Re: Are all girl FIRST team counterproductive to the philosophy of FIRST?
i like being on a co-ed team jane, but i wouldn't mind having an all girls team either. It sets them apart, and shows that girls CAN do things by themselves! i don't think its fair to start an all girls team at, for example, a school that is co ed, and has no other team, but starting an all girls team, when there is already an existing team wouldn't hurt anyone. I see both sides of the story, and have gone back and forth on this feed, because i feel both ways. For me, the biggest part of being an all girls team would be that you wouldnt have sexist comments from guys. I am a girl driver, and its hard to deal with the comments from the guys, but i proved that i was good, and so they stopped, where as an all girls team wouldnt have those kinds of comments.. it depends on how you look at it, but from being a girl in first, i dont neccisarily agree or disagree
