Was lacrosse originally invented just for boys?

Originally, lacrosse was a Native American sport for the men of an Indian tribe. The game was a contest of strength, speed, and toughness. Women were not originally suppose to compete in the game because of the dangers it posed. No pads were used whatsoever, and the now common term a "check" was on an entirely different level. So, to answer this question: No, lacrosse was not originally for women. It was a guys sport but obviously, this has changed.
