It was once believed that sport was solely a man's domain. Strict gender construction in various societies would not allow women to participate in certain activities. Strength and physical skill were to be a male only attributes and women who had these qualities were considered unfeminine. That has changed and now women are engaging in sports in larger numbers. The idea of women's physical and biological inferiority was proven to be a myth. Sports did advance gender equality giving women a new sense of confidence.
