Co-ed soccer: Should it be a thing?

[VGmaster9]

I'm only referring to FIFA soccer, with domestic club soccer and international soccer. There wouldn't be any need for women's tournaments and can compete alongside the men in theirs. Still, men and women would have to play in separate teams in the Olympics. I'm sure it'd make for a great mixed gender sport.

soccer shouldn't be a thing.

I think its a good idea. Women and men should be able to play alongside if they want to. If they want to only play with their gender that's fine too, but it should be up to them.

My co-workers participate in co-ed soccer and frisbee-golf. Sure, why not. Seems like it works out fine.

I will continue to not watch either way.

I think co-ed sports should be a thing, even if males have a biological advantage, doesnt mean there arent females that exist outside their average strength/agility classes.

If you want to keep things 'fair', I second feelwell in that women and men can still play their own league by sex.

Sports is probably one of the few things I feel that could use a discriminant between gender, because on average males do carry a strength advantage, so in that regard its rather a useful separation, and not (entirely) based on sexism (even though sexism arises anyways, because people)

My jr high had co-ed teams but didn't let them practice together during recess

Why not? And why not other sports, too? I've known many a girl who can kick a guy's ass, this way and that. But in Soccer? Yep, that's a no-brainer.
