Sport is Female is a podcast dedicated to women in sports. Media tends to ignore women athletes and the various roles that women play in the sport industry, which reinforces stereotypes, sustains marginalization, encourages invisibility, and limits involvement. The media in general tends to be partial towards men, covering women mainly as subjects of sensational stories, for instance as victims of disasters or violence. There is also little diversity in the coverage of women in sport. In both print and electronic media, coverage is limited to women in sport who have attained a very high level of achievement. Sports is Female Podcast will be dedicated to women in sports, in South Africa, Africa and the world. We believe that through Sports is Female podcasts, changes will start happening in the sport industry. Visit www.sportisfemale.com to see more show notes.
