Today, my parents made me quit a school team that I absolutely loved, because women "aren't supposed to play sports." and were worried that if I stayed on the team, I'd develop a manly physique. FML

It's cases like these where it's acceptable to stand up against your parents. I know that people around you agree, and look at these comments. Don't quit. Be yourself OP.

Tell them you love the team, and the game! Put on your big girl panties and tell them!

I'd say they already know, just care more about op being their version of "attractive".

Well then. You'd think that parents would think differently by now, it being the 21st century and all. What sport were you playing?

Ah, parents. Always stepping all over their children's lives. This is why I'm glad mine are supportive, instead of destructive.

Go talk to your counselors. At least they can give your lovely parents an earful
