Opposite sex coach

Results | Messages
We hear a lot about equal rights for men and women in all professions. One occupation that has come under criticism from feminist groups is coaching. 98% of male sports teams at the high school, college, and professional levels are coached by males, and greater than 50% of female sports teams at the high school, college, and professional levels are coached by males. What I'm interested in in this poll are the opinions of people on the potentially uncomfortable and embarrassing situation of having an opposite sex coach.
