Today, TV channels provide men’s sport shows more than women’s sports shows. Why? Should TV channels give equal time for women’s sport and men’s sport?

In recent years, men’s

sport

shows considerably outnumber those of women. There has been an opinion that men and women

sport

program should be given equivalent TV coverage. In

this

essay, I would argue why

this

is not a smart idea. There is an array of reasons why TV producers are in favour of men’s

sport

competition rather than women’s. The most fundamental one is due to the prejudice of

gender

. A great number of people find women games are boring and not

worthwhile whereas

worthwhile, whereas

men’s are regarded as fully conveying the spirit of sports.

This

is because the public

women with household responsibility which means women’s physical capacity is pitifully devalued. Meanwhile, men are considered the symbol of strength and

therefore

, men arouse higher public’s attention in terms of physical strength than women do. The

reason is the profit of the television station. It is evident that the majority of

teams. Thanks to that deep-ingrained bias of the audience, people working in broadcasting sector would gain enormous profit from advertising contracts only by dedicating its prime time to the most sensational

However

games is unrealistic. It is probable that people who are of that opinion find that imbalance extremely unfair and they think equal coverage is a way to discourage

gender

discrimination. But I think they are ridiculously optimistic.

Firstly

, the main audience of

shows is male, and giving women shows more airtime cannot change

this

group preference.

Therefore

, it could not make any big stride in confronting

gender

inequality. I believe that
