Can women dunk into a basketball hoop that is in line with men’s bodies? Why should a woman opt for rhythmic gymnastics if she’d rather play football? Why is women’s volleyball seen as just sexy? In our discussion about gender stereotypes in sports, we are overcoming obstacles and opening the way to every sport for every woman. We talk about pay inequality, sexual harassment, the shortage of women coaches and women in decision-making positions.
