I remarked that the system would ultimately fail for most institutions because of the lack of revenue generated by sports outside the big three (football, basketball, and baseball) and in particularly women's athletics.
Your argument isn't quite correct. While it's certainly true that a successful athletic program needs good revenue generating teams, it also helps to have the others. For example, it has helped LSU in football recruiting that oh, they also happen to have a great track team. Lots of top athletes are multisport and want something to do when they aren't playing football.
BTW, baseball is not a revenue generator at most universities.
And yes, your girlfriend will shortly leave you for her new girlfriend.

There are so many other qualities that I find attractive in her. We get along great and share many common interests and tastes in regards to 'superficial' subjects.
Honestly, I don't think she is "the one", but it's not like I'm miserable being with her. She makes me happy and I make her happy. For now, it works just fine.
I am not the type to tell another man what to do with his life, but I am confident this will not be an amicable split.

Show her Ronda, then explain how she said she won't fight dudes because of physiological inferiority. Dump her if she doesn't capitulate.

She then states that society should abolish the gender classification in sports and athletics anyway. I reply, "Well then women will never be able to participate in sports."
She retorts, "Why not?", to which I say "Because men are genetically superior in terms of athletic potential."
There's your trouble. Your response to her retort was the problem. Sure, she went into an idiotic argument after this, but if you had replied, "[B]ecause the only gender classifications are for women's sports" (even if maybe not 100% true). You could have cut off the nonsense right there. Then you could have used the examples such as "there is no men's football team." Any woman who is talented enough can try out and she might even remember the name of the LSU Homecoming queen who tried out for a kicker position. Then point out that a male student cannot play on any of the women's teams.
Learn to cut off these sorts of things without backing her into her feminist corner, forcing her to defend her views no matter what, and you will save yourself a lot of grief.

She wants to become an child advocacy lawyer. There are certainly employment opportunities available in that field.
Refer to any post about your g/f being an idiot..she sounds like an idealist who has no business in the law field

With that being said, how can someone be so dense?
Well, if you can't lie to yourself, who can you lie to? Extreme liberals have a tendency to lie to themselves when logic, truth, and rationality conflict with their world view.
