Should Mixed Teams be allowed to play in the Rugby World Cup?

Should Mixed Teams be allowed to play in the Rugby World Cup?
Should Mixed Teams be allowed to play in the Rugby World Cup? I think no. I think no because women already have their own world cup, if a male accidentally hurts a woman playing he might get charged, and to get a team of mixed genders with the same ability could be hard.

Firstly, women already have their own world cup. Female rugby players have different tournaments just like male rugby players. For example, male rugby players have the Lions Tour which occurs every 4 years in either New Zealand, Australia or South Africa. Women have Sevens comps and basically the same stuff as male rugby.

Secondly, if a male accidentally hurts a woman playing he could get charged. If a man unintentionally head highs a woman and she gets injured, will he get charged for assaulting a female? I can't find information around that little topic but if mixed teams happened the world rugby union would have to make a rule around that. 

Finally, to get a team of mixed genders with the same ability could be hard. To get into the All Blacks the coaches are looking for the best of the best in our country. They could be looking for 30 skilful players and there could be 25 incredible male players and only 5 incredible females. If the rule was half male half female the team would be unfair.

So I strongly disagree that there should be mixed gender teams in the World Cup because women already have their own world Cup, if a male accidentally hurts a woman playing he could get charged, and to get a team of mixed genders with the same ability could be hard.
