Gracie

The movie Gracie displays the delimma of women in men's sport. Should she do it and be ostracized by her school and the team and be a star athlete or should she sit in the wake of sport fame on the women's soccer team? This situation happens to women in society no matter how successful they are at a sport. People are disinterested in women's sports in comparison to men's sports, and to me it doesn't make sense. Why shouldn't the best athlete play on the best team and be rewarded for it instead of being stigmatized for it? Women need to rise up with fists in the sports realm, in any realm of life where they aren't treated equal, and take the success and the attention that they deserve, which Gracie does.
