Sexism in sports has even a prevalent issue. Women do not receive the same amount of respect as men do. Female athletes put in the same amount of work as male athletes but tend to go unrecognized. There needs to be a change in the appreciation of women's sports! #1ACLN

If you want to look into this topic I will post three sources following this tweet that really helped with my research and were also extremely interesting! #1ACLN

A female super star tends to get paid less than male bench players. #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

In basketball, the pay for athletes tends to be based on the revenue. Revenue is the amount of money the team is generating. Male athletes tend to get 50% of the revenue the team generated while female athletes only get 25% of the revenue generated by their team. #1ACLN

There have been many studies that show that women athletes tend to be underrepresented in the media. #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

When in media, women tend to be objectified rather than commended for their achievements. #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

Since women's basketball is more of a team sport, study shows that some people think it is "too slow". #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

Women's and men's basketball focus on different aspects. Men's games tend to be focused on individual talent while women's is more focused on team work. #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

After world war 2, women weren't allowed to be feminine and athletes. #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

In general, women have been under appreciated in society. Women have been given demeaning roles that they were forced to stick to or conform to. #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

Women's basketball is significantly under appreciated compared to men's for some reasons being the way women's basketball is portrayed in the media, and how they are underpaid. #1ACLN

[Sana @Sanak24b]

For more than half of my life, I played basketball. It was my passion from 3rd grade all the way to 12th grade. With that being said, I saw a lot of sexism in the basketball world and decided that the topic I wanted to research had to go with that theme! #1ACLN
