Should women be banned from men's football?

The world football governing body, Fifa, has ruled that a leading female Mexican footballer should not be allowed to play for a professional men's club. Maribel Dominguez had signed for the Mexican second-division club Celaya which would have been a first for football in North and Central America.

However, the Fifa executive committee has said that the division between men and women in the sport should be maintained. Do you agree with the Fifa ruling? Should women be barred from playing men's football?

Of course there is an argument that it would then allow men to play for the womens teams. How can you ban one and allow the other?
