individual sports where women are judged, mostly by men, like figure skating, gymnastics, diving are fine
directly competitive sports like swimming or track are pushing it but whatever
team sports for women are ludicrous and should never have any kind of social prominence
of course we can't fix this until anti-reality legislation like title IX is repealed, that can't happen as long as women can vote, therefore the collapse is inevitable
It’s because like usual Imp is wrong. Title IX does apply to sports. If the school receives federal funding and funds athletics programs then they can run afoul of title IX. It doesn’t mean the same sport has to be offered to men or women but if the school is funding 5 male sports there must also be 5 female sports being funded by the school. So it doesn’t require the school to field a female American football team, but they may have a women’s field hockey or volleyball team without a male equivalent team since there is likely a male American football team. It also doesn’t matter that men’s football, basketball, baseball, and hockey can bring in way more money for the school than what they spend on it while most women’s teams don’t even come close to breaking even. They have to offer the same number, so the men’s teams have to subsidize the female sports usually in the athletics budget.
