No one said that they would be forced into girly events. Misty is a gym leader, May and Dawn do contests, which many boys do in universe, and from my perspective is way more difficult than battling gyms. Iris trained dragons. Serena is the only one who's really been pushed into a girls-only goal. The problem has mostly been giving secondary characters something different to do from collecting badges. Gender isn't the issue.Problem there is, why should the girls just be relocated to the girly events? It got especially bad in XY where they literally invented a girls only event for Serena to take part in. It honestly feels a bit condescending towards girls by putting them into stereotypical roles in the series when they’re allowed to have roles at all.
