Mental health for men is being called a silent crisis, a sleeper issue that has crept into the minds of millions. At the heart of the problem are new and emerging pressures for men, stemming from changes in societal dynamics at work, and in family and personal life. While the concept of mental health for men is nothing new, comparatively, gender-specific health awareness and research have focused predominately on women. Women have the tendency to band together, and they are more vocal and expressive about emotions and other aspects of their mental health. As a result, women seek health care in much greater proportion than men.
Topic: Do Female Athletes Deserve Equal Pay? INTRODUCTION: The issue that I’m researching is about women’s sport and how they deserve to be payed equally with men. There are two sides of the issue. one is that women work just as hard as men do to be elite athletes and they play the same sports but they get payed less and the other is that men’s sport is in more of demand with television, sponsorship advertising etc, therefore men’s sport is more popular. This issue is personally relevant to me because when I’m older I hope to be an elite athlete and hopefully play in the WNBA and if I am lucky enough to get that opportunity I would like to be payed equally with the men in the NBA.

The average American only makes $41,673.83 annually according to the social security online national wage index, but it is said that the average NBA player makes a stunning $4,790,000 per year. It seems crazy that the average NBA player makes more in a week than the average American does in a year, but yet they are still arguing with team owners over slight pay cuts. The NBA lockout has been all over the news for months, and it seems extremely silly that millionaires are arguing with billionaires over how to divvy up four billion dollars. Due to this topics extreme publicity and silliness; many fans have felt a sense of exigency, in a rhetoric sense, and have decided to speak out on the issue.

But people have not stop to think about the hardships women go through, such as giving birth, C-sections, menstrual cycle, menopause, and all the symptoms that go along with it. Many guys that I know think what women go through is not that serious and that we women exaggerate about the pain. What they fail to realize is that, women are stronger than they seem and does not have the time to be complaining on something that cannot be changed. Men should bless women for keeping the human race going without complaint. Once they understand why women have it rougher than men they should start to appreciate all the hardships women goes through.
Running head: DIVERSITY IN THE COACHING PROFESSION Diversity in the Coaching Profession University Of Phoenix Diversity in the Coaching Profession The rise of women in this nation is something that is easily seen when one looks back in time and finds that not long ago women had virtually few rights. That growth is evident in the sports world as well. Sports were at one point only for men. Thanks to Title IX, women make up nearly half of the athletes in high school and college. While the opportunities for women to participate in sports have equaled those of the men, there is one important arena of the sports world that is still dominated by men and that is in coaching.
Women Outlive Men “Men are better than women. Men should not do what women do because it will cause indignity.” Almost all of people are familiar with this quotation. There are many people who still believe that women are weaker than men, but it is the time for them to think about it again. People think that men are stronger than women because they can run faster, lift heavier weight, and do everything that women could not do. In fact, women outlive men by about five to six years.
The average male/female today views 400 to 600 advertisements per day, by the time they are 17 years old, they would have received over 250,000 commercial messages through the media. Only 9% of commercials have a direct statement about body image and beauty, many more implicitly emphasize the importance of body image and beautiful (Paul Hamburg 1999). Therefore if body image and self-esteem are such considerable problems then what are they?" Body image involves our perception, imagination, emotions, and physical sensations of and about our bodies. A body image can be ever changing and is not created based on fact but influenced by self-esteem, environment, physical experiences and physiological experiences.
Now if the male is also a college graduate the pay gap will increase to $2,482 a month and total of $1,192,000 during their whole career (Henslin, 2010, p. 316). According to Henslin (2010) “The pay gap is so great that U.S. women who work full-time average only 72 percent of what men are paid” (p. 318). The pay gap isn’t just based of gender but also physical appearance plays a role. Not only does a tall male make more than a short male by $166,000 but tall women also make more than short women. But we go back to the gender inequality because taller men make more than taller women.
Females with bachelor's degrees earned $35,408 in 2000, compared with $49,982 for males. To this point in my point of view, it is absurd that women are still being underpaid for similar jobs occupied by men. Women worked hard in this society just like any men and still it is difficult for them to reach or break the glass ceiling that bare them from the executive office. This issue is not only a United States issue; it is a worldwide issue where women are
