It's critical to discuss male privilege in athletic spaces; it's something often overlooked when it's discussed in say...work spaces or academic spaces. It affects EVERYTHING.

She summed THAT up right nicely with this: "Just because YOU don't see it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist." Love it...Feliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09017194727231120284noreply@blogger.com
