“Title 9 didn’t pass until I was in college so I grew up with sports being male dominated. I went to a brand new high school which had labeled (on the building exteriors) a Girls’ Gym (contained a stage and used for concerts and plays, along with basketball backstops) and a Boys’ Gym (ordinary basketball gym with bleachers, etc). This school was built in Northern California in 1967. My girls’ basketball team was delegated to the outside blacktop because the 4 boys’ teams (Frosh, Sophomore, JV & Varsity) got the use of the 2 gyms. I didn’t experience any harm as a college female athlete in the early 1970’s but I also found it difficult to break into any male dominated sports (like cross country and cycling). I didn’t get an opportunity to run cross country until I went to a junior college outside of the USA in 1971-1972. Also, females didn’t have many rights in the 1970s, including obtaining a credit card in one’s own name. As recounted in this Counterattack podcast, I wonder how many of my teammates were harassed by males. At that time, if there was harassment, it was ALL the fault of the female—never the fault of the male. Have times really changed, even when depicted in current day films/movies?”

“I give credit to the journalistic work that went into this podcast, but unfortunately I came away very disappointed for a few reasons.
The first is the way it glosses over the health implications of steroid use. It sets up a straw man by rightfully acknowledging the scare tactics used to...”Read full review »
