Sexism has an effect on women's physical culture

It is a revolutionary concept for women to run. Women's thought of running are bound by stereotype and bad habits. There is still prejudice of men and discrimination for women in the society. Women have to move further, and be more independent.

A doctor and marathon runner from San Francisco has ever written the experience that she and one of her friends watched her husband running over the grass in Golden Gate Park a few years ago. She suddenly thought that probably she can run for a try. This idea came as a great surprise to her. Later, she recalled: "this is a revolutionary idea. I have never seen if there was a woman running. The whole concept was novel for me".
It is understandable that such outdated conventions and bad customs make some women feel angry. Nina Keswick talked to me that she felt deceived in ignoring enjoying the benefits that running brought about during her stage of growth. Susan Brown wrathfully wrote the same phenomenon in the book Against Our Will: "we can take important warning from sports, one of which is that success is a arduous, continued and conscientious exercise, and a cool-headed, shrewd strategy (use of stratagem and deceit included), and the result of positive thought aroused all the reflecting system. Bt women are nurtured over a long period of time, they are reluctant to understand this aspect and put it into effect.
John Terumi and Charles Pecs wrote and compiled a book called Sports and Society which argument is impartial that brilliantly expound: "we should notice that men and women have been able to go in for sports, but we should not neglect that men still have the whip hand in the aspect of sports, therefore there exist inevitable prejudice of men and discrimination for women".
Even if the situation is not good it is by no means hopeless. Though women players constitute only about 5 percent, the number of them is increasing. Bruce Orel, a clinical psychologist in San Jose State University, recently made some pertinent suggestions at a sports seminar in Seattle. He said that women are not short of ability but are affected by cultural bias. He said that: "women are thought to be a certain kind of group on people's own supposition; it causes a cultural pressure consequently. Bear in mind the old saying: horses sweat, men sweat, women ruddy without sweating. So if women are to take part in athletics, it is necessary to a leap forward-a psychological leap. She has to redefine herself with courage as a human". Orel continued if she wants to become an outstanding athlete, she has to go further, "she should be independent, and even roar at his coach 'go screw yourself''"
Nowadays, more and running shoes have appeared in 2011 new year. Especially the Nike free series, they are super lightweight and comfortable. They are popular in Canada.
