Women in men's professional sport leagues

[RACooper]

Sure why not?

In the case of Wickenheiser, she could hold her own in the men's games, and she can throw a mean check (at least according to my younger brother who played against her this year). However it was the off-ice pressure that finally did her in.... everyone focusing on that fact that she was a women playing in a men's league, instead of her actual playing level.

I know at the intramural level here at UofT most of the contact/athletic sports as ktsnake put are intergrated men and women (except hockey so far); but not a the inter-collegiate level yet (for the most part). So all the teams I've played on intramurally included women (waterpolo, rugby, ultimate frisbee, and basketball), and as long as they came out to play, I have no problem with it.
