Fasting is the second guest speaker in the Olympic lecture series, which consists of io lectures by experts in Olympic history. The series is hosted by the Tanner Humanities Center and professor Larry Gerlach and will run through next March. Fasting, who is also vice president of Womensport International, lectured on "The Gendering of the Winter Olympic Games" in Orson Spencer Hall, Thursday evening. Fasting began by focusing on the small number of women that play a part in the International Olympic Committee. "The IOC is undoubtedly the most powerful organization in sports, yet only 12.1 percent of them are women," Fasting said. "This in turn, has an indirect affect on the participants of the Olympic Games." Fasting said it is important to have an equal representation of men and women for many reasons. "Women and men have different knowledge in various areas, they have different values, and women account for more than half the world's population," she said. Although specialists have pointed out women are capable of participating in many of the Olympic sports reserved for men, female athletes have only been able to participate in 47 percent of the events. For instance, the longest ski event for the 2002 nt, Fasting. A recent study of broadcast coverage of the Nagano Olympics found female athletes were trivialized more. The only women's event receiving more coverage than its male counterpart was figure skating, she said. "Although the effort of the International Olympic Committee has been impressive in the recent years, the world of sports journalism is still Fasting said. "Statistics show the number of female journalists from Nagano was only 13.3 percent." Fasting said the consequences of media portrayal of female athletes in the Olympics have negative results. The barrier for women's involvement in sports in the future is another negative consequence of current media portrayal. It makes pursuing a future in Olympic sports harder for women and will also decrease the number of women who want to, Fasting said. male-dominate- Another consequence is the further difficulty in getting sponsorship for female athletes. Media is then a negative force in changing gender ratios in sport itself and in society at large, she said. "Although a large improvement has taken place in numbers, the ratio of female athletes is only Fasting said. "The media plays an important role in reinforcing the traditional gender stereotypes, they can also help by changing the view of women in sports." czhangchronicle. utah. edu one-third- ," |
