Is it really throwing like a girl?

After reading Throwing like a girl By James Fallows, it had brought back some memories of when I used to play T-ball and we would have to throw the ball to a different base. The team was a co-ed T-ball team so all of the guys would pick on the girls on how they would throw. Growing up I had started to hear that phrase all the time and not always throwing like a girl but playing a game. I feel that society has changed its ways of viewing sports and that the how the guys play sports is the "correct" way and the way the girls play is "incorrect". The truth is said at the end of the passage, "Everyone has to learn", no one is born being able to do things correctly, we weren't born being able to walk we had to learn how to do that, then learn how to play sports. No two people play the sport the exact same way, and no two people learn the sport the same way, everyone is going to be different and that is what makes the games better, because everyone has a different position and different ways of learning how to play those positions. Those different positions help make the games more successful and each person helps contribute to the win. Everyone has to be open and trusting to others on the team that the way they learned is a way that can help the team. No two people learn the same way but I believe that both of the ways they had learned work just as well as a different way someone learned. More books are being written on the “correct” way to throw a ball and these books are becoming more and more read by sports fans.
