Support for girls' high school sports was a national embarrassment pre-Title IX.
I graduated from high school in 1971, right before Title IX. Sure, some of the high schools in Iowa has girls' basketball, especially the larger schools, but for 90% of the high schools, forget it!
What a difference Title IX made! My very athletic sister was just two years younger than me. She was in the first class of our high school to have girl athletes letter in sports. My sister lettered in basketball, baseball, and track.
Finally my very conservative father's tax dollars paid for sports for his daughters (six daughters, one son!). About time, and only fair.
While Title IX may not be perfect (I refuse to get into an argument on it), I fully support the idea that tax dollars should be used for both girls and boys athletics in public schools.
BullSh!T, BullSh!t Bullsh!t (Unless you care to offer support for your claim). How exactly was the US producing all those female Olympic champions, tennis champions and golf champions prior to Title IX, hmmmm?
Another dumb liberal "slumming it" on FR, huh?
