On this issue, I voted Yes, though its not something Id likely use.
The inclusion of Women's Leagues in OOTP would not detract from the Gameplay in any way for those that dont want it, but would benefit those that do want it.
I enjoyed A League of Their Own quite a bit and respect the history of baseball, including womens baseball.
If you are someone that dismisses the fact that there was a Woman's Baseball League, do you also dismiss the fact that there was a Negro League? Which is an intergral part of Baseballs history. How can you dismiss one, and not the other?... and how can you possibly dismiss any part of history?
This is a valid point. But this particular poll doesnt prioritize the issue, it simply asked if Women's Leagues were something people wanted.

You could make a pretty sound argument that the game the AAGPBL played was closer to MLB baseball today than MLB baseball prior to the 1890s was.
