Are you familiar with the names Tina Charles, Natalie Coughlin, Candace Parker, Aly Raisman, Kerri Walsh, or Misty May-Treanor? You should be!They are in the top 50 female athletes. What about the names LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Brett Farve, Michael Phelps, Tiger Woods, or Barry onds? Chances are you know more of the male athletes than you do female ones. That’s all because women’s sports have been repressed. They are not talked about nearly as much. They are not shown on television as much. They aren’t even put in papers as much. All should be changed; there should be equal coverage and equal knowledge given of both sports. No favoritism to men’s sports should be given.
