footing as men. Though, this false stereotype has been degrading our confidence in <br />physical ability. True is the fact that women are less famous at sports thari men (opinion), <br />� <br />but that doesn't mean that we absolutely have no ability to be able to do so. But since we <br />live in a society where cefl-tain sports are unisex and certain sporis are expected to be <br />"men only", we do not have the courage to do something that society has commented to <br />be "odd99 and "out of place". If we do, we r�ill be teased and insulted until we prove to be <br />just as physically talented as men. This lowers our self-esteern a�ad strips us of olar <br />conviction of our physical ability, and therefore will leave us embarrassed of doing the <br />sports or activities that we want to do and sfick to the make�up and princesses. �lnyone <br />who discriminates worrben for playing in sports is damaging her human rights. �Iluman <br />Rights Article #27: Eve�yone has the right freely to participate in the cultural life of the <br />community, to enjoy the arts and to share in scientific advancement and zts benefits.

They're <br />lilce an inev�table plague. �1nd no one really has a cure. �ut, there are organizations out <br />there that try their best to preserve our rights a.nd try to prevent ihetn frona being <br />absolutely broken. Such as ihe M[innesota I-�uman Rights Act (NIII�) who eriforces the <br />�ill of I�ights (�OR) and the �Jniversal Declaration oi Human Rights (iJ1�HR) and <br />follows their written text, which was all establish to ensure humariity and it's <br />success. Though the fact that the stereotypes that all Middle-Easte�n people are Yerrorists, <br />intelligent siudents are "nea�ds", and women aren't good at sports is quickly c�irninishing <br />any hope for a prejudice�free society where all hiairia,n rights are respected and obeyed. <br />And you, the reader who has read my point of view as a�ictirr�, have sorriething to think <br />
