Should Girls Be Allowed to Play in Boys Football Teams?

My niece watches football all the time and wants to be a professional football player, How do I explain to her that women can’t play football in mens’ football teams?
She wants to play for teams like Packers or Steelers.

@ Coolio, Are you INSANE or are you joking? She will get KILLED if she gets tackled by a pro football player, most of them are like 300 pounds and over 6 foot tall

    Well there was a girl who kicked on a football team that i was on in highschool, she started varsity and we still had other boys who got beat out of the position by her.

    We were a good team too!
    We also live in Nebraska so you know we take football seriously, we have nothing else to do.

    I dont have a single problem with it as long as she doesnt take my position.

    If it’s possible, she can try joining a women’s football team to satisfy her passion, but I wouldn’t recommend her to join the men’s football team. As you said, she might get tackled by a pro football player and get hurt easily. Let her know that while it is her passion, sometimes she would have to prioritize her safety and that you are genuinely concerned for her too.
