because of gender, it is because men work longer hours compared to women since they have children to take care of. I believe that this movement could improve by making people more aware of the through more examples such as the Women’s U.S.A. Soccer Team wanting more pay and equal pay. The gender wage gap between men and women needs to be brought to people’s attention due to the cause of unequal amount of pay for the exact same job. Our question is what is a gender pay gap? A gender wage gap is when

In 2008 she helped bring home the gold for the Olympics in Beijing and again in four years later in London. She had a near record performance to help the USA girl’s team to win FIFAWomen’s World Cup Solo went on to inspire girls and boys who looked up to her. She loved the game of soccer all through her childhood, career, and even

The United States (U.S.) Women's Soccer Team has become more profitable, more watched, and more successful than the United States Men’s Soccer Team. They have gotten to where they are at now not through money but through their struggle to play the sport they love. U.S. Women’s Soccer started from the crazy thought of women playing a men’s sport to a dominating spot at the top of this nation’s soccer winning game after game. Still no matter if they are more profitable, more watched, and more successful

brain disease, which Dempsey says motivated him to do better. The other kids in poverty around him were hispanics who loved the sport of soccer. And seemingly Clint must have enjoyed it too because he was able to play on clubs travel around the united States and go to college all because of his skills at soccer. It shows that adversity can affect a people, but it cannot deeply affect a culture, a way of life. If nothing it strengthens it because of history and the importance of family and friends in

poles tonight.” “Yeah, he must be a U.S. Women’s fan too cuz Lord knows the men’s team is terrible.” This come from two middle aged women decked out in U.S. Soccer gear sitting a row behind me. The group of people around them chuckle after hearing this exchange. It’s just a fact around here: the women play better. Just three months later I walk into Jordan Field, home of the Boston Breakers, a professional women’s soccer team and as we walk towards the stands one of my friends jokes that even our high

hard to imagine, and honestly, it shouldn't be. Through female athletes sharing their stories of unfair treatment and pay, sexism and generations of inequality in sports can be overcome. Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 states, “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.” The impact of Title IX on

Professional athletes are not overpaid and here's the proof. On the contrary to popular belief that athletes are overpaid, I think society labels them to such an extent that we don’t view their career as a job. I recall as a kid, I always told people I wanted to be a professional soccer player, a usual response to that statement would be, “what about being a doctor or a lawyer, those are better jobs. As I grew up I realized being an professional athlete is way better than the stereotypical high

“The United States Women's National Team is paid almost four times less than the United States Men’s National Team, despite producing nearly $20 million in revenues for U.S. Soccer in 2015”. Some may argue that just because they are women they don’t deserve equal pay or the same rights as the men’s soccer players. This is one of many situations that contributes injustices against women. It is these injustices that Marge Piercy exposes in her feminist poem “A Work of Artifice.” Although to the untrained

Put Too Much Pressure on Their Favorite Professional Teams? Have you ever thought about professional athletes having so much pressure on themselves? In every sport fans put so much pressure on their teams to win. But what you don’t see is how the players feel about it. Fans put too much pressure on their sports teams, but this couldn’t be a problem if we make a solution. Fans can put so much stress on players of their favorite professional teams. You might not even realize the impact you are making

becoming more successful, the men’s team has been around longer and bring in more media coverage and endorsements for the league. Despite the discrepancies found in media coverage of both teams, the US soccer federation and Federation International Football Association should provide equal opportunities for both men’s and women’s soccer teams. Twenty years ago the United States started their first men’s soccer league. The Major League Soccer (MLS) started out in 1996 with 10 teams and has continued to grow
