Title IX opens and closes doors

Essay here. Excerpt:

'But the reason that it's not fair might sound sexist to a stubborn person, so try to look at it with an open-mind. For example, it's a given that more people, a lot more people, attend male basketball games versus female basketball games. It isn't because fans like staring at guys more than the women. No, it's because men are generally more intense and generally physically stronger - two key points for a good basketball game.

For those of you who don't know, our athletic program scrapped four male sports in order to comply with this law years ago. The male swimming team and the male diving team were yanked. A nationally- recognized male track and field team was pulled. The male tennis team came to a crashing halt as well.'
