I understand where you're coming from, and race based leagues is a good counterexample.
That said, I think it's important for young girls to be able to look up to people "like them" to enable them to participate in sports.
It would be kind of a bummer if the Olympics was almost entirely men competing, and the signal was sent to all girls that sports aren't for them.
