for religious reasons. they are entitled to follow their religion. just as everybody should be. the day we revoke religious freedoms is not a day i want to see. did anybody ask the women if they wanted to take part? i assume they don't because they are muslim too and they also follow the same religion. you wouldn't expect a christian to do a run on a sunday, or a jew to do one during shabbat.

So do you think muslim women have a free choice about wearing the burqa, undergoing FGM, etc?

Nobody's brought it up yet, perhaps I would. It's not just jewish men either, it's muslim men as well (islam and judaism have more in common than either would like to admit), and used to be fairly common in UK with no religious connections, less so nowadays. Still done routinely in USA I believe.
Can't remember who said "The male organ is not something you can cut bits off willy-nilly"

Can you ask your parents to explain the concept of a public forum?

Dunno what you are on about ?

Women weren't allowed to race competitively at higher levels until around the 1980s. God knows how bad the village fetes were back then.

Someone needs to tell you something, something about the concept of a public forum.
Your refusal to accept the etiquette of a public forum does not change the concept nor the etiquette.

How's that stammer going? Does it only happen when you're under stress?

You have failed to understand my comment.

You appear to have some sort of vendetta going against me, that suggests you're stressed.

Nor me. I don't like scammers neither. Especially those that try to blag that they're owed money when it's obvious that they're not.

That's just ****ing stupid.

Before criticizing the event, it's important to understand the full context.

If the event was initially planned as a male only race, and later women sought to participate, then the eventual decision to allow only girls under 12 might stem from a logistical decision.

Children under 12 are not focused on romantic relationships, as it's not something that is relevant or appropriate for their age and they haven’t reached puberty or developed those interests.
