Three pointer, home run, touchdown: all these are vernacular that are associated with the world of sports. When you read those words you probably associated them with the image of your favorite team completing the action. However, if you are like the majority of people, that favorite team most likely consists of only males. The disparity between women’s and men’s sports has been an argument that has divided the sports world for decades. Everyone knows that women get paid less than men, they know that women get treated worse than their male counterparts. And we somehow let this happen and are okay with it in the business of women’s sports.
However, with funding for all college level women’s sports programs being six millions dollars under the single budget for one male college sport team, the disparities are starting to become harder to ignore.
