Yeah, that's right. Matt and I were talking about this while in Montreal.
I'm not hispanic, why should I be called a shredita?
All male footbaggers should thus be called shreditos.
Shredito!

I don't mind if other women identify themselves as shreditas. I don't think I've ever identified myself as one because I don't like the term shredita. I told one of my friends that female players are called shreditas and he asked, "Doesn't 'ita' mean mini?" I don't know, but I don't feel the need to have a separate title. As far as I'm aware, female jugglers and basketball players are just called jugglers and basketball players.
BUT, I wasn't around when Shreditas.com was created so I don't know what the scene was like. Maybe women wanted to have their own title. I do know that when I found Shreditas.com I was amazed that there were female players (I had never seen any before) and that they were good.
I don't want to sound like disliking the term shredita is saying anything against Jane or her ex-site.
