The local badminton league has no women's league but has a mixed league and a men's league.
For those not immersed in the world of badminton, mixed is essentially a different game to the 'levels' version played in men's / women's leagues.
I don't particularly enjoy playing mixed and would much prefer to play on the men's team.
The local league rules allow women to play in the men's league however the men's team captain has stated that women will only play on the mens team as a last resort (ie when it's that or not get a team out at all) because apparently it would be humiliating for men to play women (and lose ).
So yes...I am being unreasonable to think I should get the same shot at the men's team as everyone else?
