These standards are even more stingent than those found within other traditional fundamentalistic religious groups. Why I remember growing up playing volleyball against a female team, in a Nazarene youth group. Sometimes even, this one transgendered girl would even play on our team, eventhough she's biologicly female. And if women are not permitted to exercise at all, they will tend to become overweight. So I feel that all people should be allowed to play with each other. I mean it's not like they're going to be making out with each other, or even dancing together. Both of which many strict conservative christian groups would forbid. All that they want to do is just have some fun, not make love. Oh, and P.S. The male team in the news story won 7-0. So, way to go guys! ;) (Just kidding all my female readers.)
