Title IX was a good concept, but the execution sucks monkey balls.
I guess I was just thinking of my school. The bigger teams, swimming and track and field are definitely equal in men and women, and the women's hockey team is actually bigger than the men's. Other than not having a men's soccer team, we're pretty even here. So, I guess it all depends on what sports are popular at that school?

That doesn't surprise me, though. If you don't want to play, you don't want to play. Someone else not being allowed to play probably won't change that.
