The Waves: Do Co-Ed Sports Hurt Girls?
Manage episode 342754026 series 128307
On this week’s episode of The Waves, Slate senior editor Shannon Palus and transgender journalist Evan Urquhart pose the question: Do we really need to separate sports by sex? The pair discusses Maggie Merten’s recent piece in The Atlantic, “Separating Sports By Sex Doesn’s Make Sense” and what role biology does (and doesn’t) play in determining who the top player on the field is. Later in the show, Shannon and Evan talk about why co-ed sports would be great for transgender youth.
In Slate Plus, is the Adam Levine sexting controversy feminist?
Recommendations:
Shannon: Adopting a dog.
Evan: The Power Wash Simulator game.
Podcast production by Cheyna Roth with editorial oversight by Shannon Palus, Daisy Rosario and Alicia Montgomery.
