Is there equality for woman in sports?

I put yes so give me some facts that i can debate on.
Meaning give me good words to say something to them

Actually your question is a bit vague.


Here a few questions/aspects you should think of:

What "equality" are we talking about?

- popularity of the kind of sport compared to the male world:

For example: Comparing male and female tennis popularity there is a slighter difference than comparing male and female football popularity, where the male world is the main point of focus, hence dominating.

- sponsorship, contracts, payment:

This also highly depends on the kind of sport we are talking about, if you want to be sure that people will follow your arguments be sure to give good examples and really show them why there IS equality (you definitely need to do research at this point).

- advertisements:

Yet again, this also depends on the kind of sport. However I see the greatest equality in this point. There are many fitness centres which use women as often or even more often as men in their advertisements. This also counts for tennis and other sports, or overall promoting of new sport articles (e.g. Nike, Adidas, Puma and so on)

Always remember there are even more aspects or sub-areas.


Another few points you should keep in mind:

Do not only prepare for the pros, even though you cheer for them. In a debate you need to be aware of the cons and also be able to (counter) argue with your discussion partner. Therefore, try to get an insight of both sides, dont focus on just one. Also be sure to think about the topic question again, if you are giving out your pros be also sure to mention exactly which sub-areas of sport you are talking about because for sure your discussion partner will present you counter-examples, so be prepared for it.


A last note, this forum is for getting tips and not your whole homework being done by someone else. It is to get some ideas or help when stuck on a problem, but not for letting people write down all the arguments for your. You need to do the research by yourself, but when you are stuck or have questions just post here what you have been looking for or whatever is confusing you and you will most likely find help


edit: please keep in mind that I'm from Germany and therefore I can only give you details of e.g. German television ads, ... Please be aware of this. Hope this helps

We are talking about all aspects of equality u listed. Everything we have couple things written down like the title 9( giving all equal opportunity to everyone) passed on 1763 some stuff like that to defend but idk what to think about for the attack when i have to argue with them why they said no and give facts

that's where the research and work kicks in! see my above post for food of thought. when you are really trying to cover all those areas you should be able to participate well in the discussion.

#1 Read through the information you already got.
#2 Think about all the pro arguments or positive examples, do some research, use the internet and write all your ideas down
#3 Do #2 for contra arguments
#4 Read through your pro's and con's and cross out the ones that might not fit as well as you thought first, also highlight the most important ones
#5 Summarize your ideas by putting all of them under different "main points"
#6 Use those main points to gain an overview for the whole topic and most importantly find the link between the pro's and con's and the title 9 (if that is required for your discussion) [that's the tricky part but if you followed all those steps properly it should be no problem]
#7 Write the whole summary or better said composion

there is a big NO around equal payment for women in sports

take eg tennis, golf, surfing (all sports where there has been a women's competition for a long time) and compare the prize money etc
not even the need to touch on sports where women are still starting to gain (full) recognition, eg football, cricket and the various rugby codes

since there only need to be a few counterexamples to equality to proof inequality
your opposition needs to be very weak for you to have a chance

In Brazil, women only have equal payment if they work in a public job. If they work on commerce or any private business, they will receive less money then men.

I know, It is sad. O_O
