I declare an independent study focused on exposing girls to traditionally male dominated sports. This is necessary because a lot of teenage girls are being discriminated in male sports, more in high school, programs and colleges. This is also necessary because Title nine defends all women from being rejected from any events in schools, programs and activities. We shouldn’t be denied to participate, no matter what. The course would be on an “Sports Ed”. It will be teaching students about different sports and about sex discrimination on girl and male sports. This course will be issued on the first term of sophomore year to get the students started in sports and how to treat their teammates in games. Playing fair should be the number one rule mentioned in the class, it’s a difficult task to take in hand and honestly people forget to play fair. This will be a steam & a humanities course. Women have the right to participate in any activities, programs that receive federal financial assistance. Title nine, gives us the protection on each principle mentioned above. “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.”
Sex discrimination is the argument to this upcoming independent study. This should be pursued because sex discrimination is awful and it should be learned and discussed to young teens so that as they grow older they know how to be respectful to others in sports and teach others to be nice. I think this should also be talked in high school for future purposes like, any sports or any sports after high school. The premises that support my argument is: (1) No co-ed football in some colleges or in any public open programs. (2) High school women athletes are higher than college women athletes. (3) Football not being a girl sport. (4) Males sports for just males.
My desired outcomes are for people to understand that sex discrimination is horrifically wrong and that it should stop because we as women have the defense against anybody or anything trying to reject us from any events we might want to be apart of or anything with the federal financial assistance. Students who are interested in sports and learning more about Title nine and making a change. This will be a great course for student with high interest in sports. I am an athletic girl and I love playing sports and being active. Whenever I play, I get discriminated a lot on my gender because I'm "supposedly" not good or I'm weak, because I'm a girl. I chose this argument because it's something I've been through and it's something hard to face alone, especially when you want to achieve in something you love doing and engaged in a lot and also being apart of a team and show people that even if you're a girl or women you're not weak and you're capable of doing what a man can do and be as strong as a man too. This argument began because it's a big issue in our age and generation. I've experienced it, seen it and also done it too. I am not going to lie, I sometimes do discriminate other girls for not being so athletic as me or for not putting the same effort. I know what I've done and I try to stop and make better decisions and show other girls that they're not alone and they can also be athletic like me. The structure of my argument is no matter what gender you are, you're capable to achieve, succeed and be better than anyone else. As long as put in your time, effort and commitment, then your good. If you practice you'll become more better and you'll be less seen as weak or not good as for others. For example, when I play catch or play a football game with guys. I get the look like "She can't throw", "Let me move on up, cause she might not throw as far", "She's a girl", "She doesn't know anything about Football". WRONG! Yes, I'm a girl but because I'm a girl doesn't mean I can't be good at something like a man can. It's sad to know that others put you down without even speaking, but as soon as I throw the ball I make them run and look at me like "Dang, how you do that?", "How you know how to throw?", "who taught you?" I get all these questions and compliments right after and it's okay but you still discriminated me because of my gender and that's why I want it to stop and change the way women are looked at in sports in our generation.
