Your point is well taken. I believe the woman's role in our society has changed significantly during our generation.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Helen Huntley Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2011 9:08 PM To: gatortalk Subject: [gatortalk] Women's World Cup I think it's remarkable that the Women's World Cub is generating so much excitement right in the middle of our Title IX discussion--and we have two Gator Title IX beneficiaries on the team. (Besides star Abby Wambach, there's Heather Mitts http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heather_Mitts . I saw her on video doing the Gator chomp after the victory over Brazil.) It just shows how far UF Athletics have come in providing opportunities for women--from absolutely nothing to teams that have players performing at the highest level. In the really olden days when I was growing up, girls played softball (albeit slow pitch) and my high school had girls' golf and tennis teams, but UF had no women's teams at all. I'm really glad they have the opportunity now. And that I can still enjoy my Gator football.
