Women in Sport: “Sacrificing the womanly attributes we admire”

A woman who is doing sports: "I will sacrifice the femininity that we respect." You can choose to ski on mountains descending vertically at speeds of 50-60 mph per hour. I need to do 300 sit-up exercises at night to choose squatting and to participate in strength training or to reach 6 packs I will no longer be women. I do not like to be polite every second of my existence, the behavior of a woman. This is very strange. I do not think so. Today's society does not match perfectly, but today's society is quite different from the situation in the early 1920s.

Most of the early girls' professional sports leagues have failed. This is usually due to lack of viewer support. Amateur competition has become a major place for women's sports. Communist countries dominated many Olympic movements, including women's sports, as state-sponsored sports were technically considered amateur sports through the middle of the 20th century.

The main factor that influences the feminization of women's sports and strengthens the masculinity of hegemony is the depiction of female athlete by the media.

Another problem is that in the media, the expression of a successful female athlete is usually based on beauty, body shape, hair and other personal attributes (21). Furthermore, young to socialize women on a gender basis tells women that women are soft, passive and less competent than sports men.

Media sports activity coverage played a part in shaping social attitudes towards women's sports. This is largely due to thousands of hours of sports records recorded annually or on a television network. However, for decades, men's sports have dominated television broadcasting (Carlisle et al.). The arrogant nature of male exercise brought about the lack of broadcasting of women's exercise; this was mainly due to the lack of equal coverage between males and females. A recent survey conducted in the United States confirmed that women's sports only play 6% of all TV networks, while male sports programs are broadcasting 96.3%. The position in this article is that the mass media has not done enough to encourage women's sports (Messner and Cooky). Women's sports lack adequate media coverage and adversely affect competitive growth
