is hardly ever. Now, if you turn on the television, radio, or open the newspaper, you are ten times as likely to be looking at coverage on professional or collegiate men’s sports than women’s. Football, basketball, baseball, and hockey to name a few are examples of men’s sports being broadcasted all the time in comparison to women’s. What about the women’s sports? Are the less important than the men’s? Why don’t they get the equal amount of coverage?Another issue that comes into play is the salaries of male professional athletes compared to female professional athletes. In other words, there is no comparison. On the average, men get paid four times as much as women do in professional sports. This is not fair at all, especially since women seem to be more dedicated to playing the sports than receiving money for it. They are doing their “jobs” for the love of it, not the pay. They are doing it exceptionally well as a matter of fact.In conclusion, women are rising to the challenge of making women’s professional sports just as important, if not more, than men’s. It has been a long travel to reach such heights, but one well worth it. Women are gaining more and more respect every day. To sum it all up, no one, on the basis of sex, should be limited or denied the right to participate in any activity that they can excel in. It is not fair to keep those that have so much talent away from what they excel in....
