Hi, need to submit a 2000 words paper on the topic Gender Issues in Sport. Gender inequality in educational institutions has an impact on a wide variety of areas within society and must be evaluated for the financial problems equality creates in balance with the social problems that are averted by programs that are created to have equal opportunities.

Inequality still exists within the world. According to Lauren Thompson from the Daily and Sunday Express (2007), inequality is between the genders is still highly prevalent within the worldwide system of cultures. She quotes a report written by Plan International titled “Because I am a Girl” that states that 100 million girls per year are destroyed before or at birth simply because they are the less desirable gender. Genital mutilation still occurs in two million girls per year. Death for girls between the ages of 15-19 is highest for dying during childbirth. It is estimated that 7.3 million women have HIV over the 4.3 million males that have the disease. As well, more than 70% of the world’s population that is living on less than a dollar a day are women. The culture of inequality is not just the idea that women haven’t the opportunities because of bias, but that they are put at risk because of those biases.

In a case study that surveyed children’s responses in essay form to an assignment in a London school that asked them to write about gender issues within that school, 38% of the girls responded with essays about inequality, while only 7% of the boys wrote about inequality. In writing about the perceived inequalities, the girls’ stories were primarily centered around issues about their sports programs. One girl wrote that while the girl's hockey team had won a tournament and received a large trophy, the boy's rugby team had one a single match. The principle, however, had only mentioned the win for the girls while the single win for the boys had been covered extensively in&nbsp.announcements and in the school paper.
