Реферат: Sexism In Sports Essay Research Paper SEXISM

are tougher more focused then women? and some said that ?they

have better, or worse, attitudes depending on your view, in that men

start to hate their opponents?, and get a ?chip on their shoulder?.

When women answer that same question, most say ?men have bigger

egos, or talk highly about themselves?. In reply to that answer men

said it is good to have an ego, as long as you can back it up?,(even

though there are those who just talk big). They also said ?you have

to have an ego to have an edge over your opponents,? although this

edge can be taken to far though, when it gets you in trouble. To men

egos are good but to women having an ego is a bad thing, we won?t

even get into that argument, that is another two page report. Even

still if asked either sex should women play on the same team as the

men, most said that, if she was good enough she should be able

to…?if she was good enough?…What is that? As if there was a

common opinion that men are usually better, that counterdicts all the

opinions we just got. I guess when people answer the question they

don?t even realize they are making a sexist comment unconsciously,

like it was almost taught to us early. That is why there are so many

different opinions about the subject, that in turn, cause all of those

arguments. It is unmistakable that men do behave different, but is

that a good thing, that?s the very question that gets at all of the

arguments. That question will never be solved, but at least you know

your answer.

This controversy is not just a current event sexism in sports dates

back to B.C.?s.

Even in 776 B.C., ancient Greeks banned women as

competitors and spectators from the Olympic games. Any

married woman found near the stadium were hurled from

a cliff.
