Beschreibung
"Sheree Bekker and Stephen Mumford argue that the category of 'women's sport' is not the feminist win some would have you believe. Instead, the segregation of women in sport is just one more way in which women are told to expect less from society.

There are better and more accurate ways to ensure safety and fairness than segregation by gender. And this matters deeply: open play would encourage a more equitable distribution of resources, increase women's participation in sport and challenge outdated, sexist, myths about women and their bodies"--
