      Listeners complain about male baseball announcers also, don't make it a gender issue. Some people like some announcers more than others. A lot of announcers are annoying whether they are male or female, the radio announcers for the Yankees, one male and one female are both sometimes annoying for different reasons, I listen for maybe an inning or so and then switch to the Mets game if they are on.

      Whats interesting is your ideological perspective is part of the Occult movement for a New Age based on Occult beliefs, but its propagated as individuals fulfilling their "true will". "True will" of the individual is the name of "Thelema". Hence, you seek to abandon all religions, all prophets of God, all family, foe the sake of the individual will.
      And lo and behold, the global capitalist world ordwr and economy is based on that same principle. What a coincidence

    Men have been coaches, officials and announcers in women's sports forever and this is considered normal and natural so it seems only natural and appropriate to go the other way. Change is hard. But it's happening as slowly announcers, officials, coaches and front office personnel are adding women. The key will be making sure that women don't demand the absence of men in their sports as they are welcomed into men's.

    Still so sad to see that the default setting for so many people is to hate on those they will never meet and will never know. And to hate on those who are superior to them in every way. Sure, female voices take some getting used to but that's not because they are weak or bad. The challenge is going to be how to legitimately criticize a bad female announcer just as men are. There are lots of men that shouldn't be calling games.

We’re always going to be stuck with sexist misogynists.
