Title IX gives women the equal opportunity they strive for and deserve. If Title IX were to be softened, women around the country would have many of their rights and benefits of college athletics stripped from them. This softening of Title IX would bring a heavy flow of legal cases to courtrooms around the country. The current system allows both men and women to compete at all levels faithfully and justly. Also, the current system still allows and encourages the expansion of athletic programs in many educational institutions.
Many institutions thrive on women's athletics to fund their programs.
Without equal representation, many programs' budgets would plummet and cause them to make severe cut backs. There is no justice in this. This is the United States, the land of the free, the home of the brave. Every human being, no matter what their gender, should be able to not only have the right, but also the ability and opportunity to choose to compete at any athletic level. Our forefathers would want it this way.
