This one is a real vote getter. Nuke that title IX. Will make tons of soccer moms happy too see their college boys denied sports participation. Women are naturally less inclined to sports. It's a fact of life. To fund women's college sports equally to men's is absurd. Sorry to be harsh but it's almost a kind of stealth lesbianism.
I have heard that if a girl is good in soccer she is just about guaranteed a college scholarship. Title IX has a lot to do with sports scholarship money too. Not just fielding women's teams.

"There are a whole bunch of soccer moms who are going to be a little upset," said Donna A. Lopiano, director of the Women's Sports Foundation. "This generation of women, for the first time, they're hearing that they shouldn't be equal -- that's going to be the message. I don't think that's going to resonate.
In 68 I had scholorships in mens gymnastics, hey the war intervened but today there are none for mens gymnastics. Do these socker moms not have sons. Now they compete in the marine corps. Hey mom get a life. REGARDS

I agree. More soccer moms are concerned about their boys' opportunities than their daughters. It's the right thing to do, and I don't think any longlasting damage will be done as for as "voters" are concerned.

It's even worse than that. When my university decided to put together a women's soccer program, they used scholarship money to recruit 'student-athletes' (read: ringers) from Canada, South Africa and elsewhere. This was with money earned by the football program, and transferred from other sports, such as men's wrestling, which catered to local Midwestern athletes.
