Pretty Good for a Girl
In my last post I told you how I learned to play ping pong better by playing in college against some very strong players. I lost a lot of games in the process, but I learned to serve fast and consistently, and how to block back a slam. I could not dominate the table for a whole evening, but I started winning games.
I liked that the guys treated me like everyone else even though I was the only woman who played.
One young man was new to the dorm games. After I skunked him, he put down his paddle and said "You play pretty good ping-pong for a girl."
I beat him as badly as a man would have done. His comment showed that he was a poor sport, and resented being beaten by a woman.
He deserved my response. “No, you play pretty good ping-pong... for a girl."
There are still some men that do not like competing with women and do not like losing to us. Don’t let them make you feel bad about your success.
Play safe and have fun.
