Editorial on Title IX
posted by Scott on Wednesday January 23, @08:11AM
from the inequality/double-standards/Title-IX dept.
Inequality Neil Steyskal submitted this USA Today article critical of Title IX. " When college administrators cut men's programs, they rarely add women's sports. Getting equal numbers of athletes, in other words, ''living by a quota,'' is all that matters." The article states that in the past six years, more than 350 men's athletic programs have been cut. Mike Moyer, the author, is the director of the National Wrestling Coaches Association.

Evil feminist plot to ruin young men's dreams (Score:0)

It is outrageous that this mandatory quota really does not enhance female athletes participation at all, yet young men's programs have delimited sport for 22,000 men.

It is a sick "lashing" out at men for the simple reason that on average more men will participate in more athletic programs than women, so the feminists decide to level the playing field by ruining opportunities for men.
At UNH, I was there when the men's teams got cut, it was very easy to do because UNH has more women than men. No one complained, yet at the same time the school had all sorts of pro-woman equality hype. Insane!!!

"yet young men's programs have delimited sport for 22,000 men"

Anon,

I'm interested in hearing more about how and when men's athletic programs were cut at UNH. Please e-mail me at scott@mensactivism.org when you get the chance.

Thanks,

Scott
