Women athletes are not the only ones sexualized. Women in every aspect of sports face an uphill battle.  Not only are female athletes sexualized but so too are female sports reporters and fans. How many times have you heard women referred to as “cute girls” during televised men’s sporting events?  Do you ever hear men referred to as “cute boys”?  What about female journalist? Do people talk about what Erin Andrews says or what she looks like? The whole portrayal of women in sports needs to change.  Women in sports can still be beautiful but let’s give them the same respect we give men. Women are fans.  Women are reporters.  Women are athletes.
