THIS SPORTING LIFE WHY? WHAT? WHEN? FASHION?

A STORY OF SOCIAL EMACIPATION OF WOMEN THROUGH SPORT ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

SPORTS GO BACK A LONG WAY ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

OLYMPIC GAMES WERE OF COURSE A BIT ARDUOUS ON THE WEAKER SEX ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

BUT MOST EARLY SPORTS WE KNOW ABOUT PREPARED MEN FOR WAR ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

ARISTOCRATIC WOMEN FOLLOWED THE SAME SPORTS HUNTING AND HAWKING GELS

AS FOR THE POOR: THE MASS OF THE POPULATION Dog and Cock fighting ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

SOME LIKE BREUGAL GIVE US MORE THAN A GLIMPSE

1612 Cotswold Olympiks And Badger baiting – rat catching

“Revolting Exhibition Among Pennsylvania Miners (1900)

OR A REAL TREAT ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

FOR THE ELITE: ROWING BECAME A SPORT

FOR THE MASSES IT WAS WORK: EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THE OLDEST SPORTING EVENT IN NORTH AMERICA 1930 Women’s winners 1890 View

AND FOR SOME WORKING PEOPLE IT WAS NOT SPORT, IT WAS LIFE OR DEATH. AND NO PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT EITHER

FOOTBALL GREW UP AS A KIND OF MASS RIOT ,[object Object],[object Object]

IN SOME PLACES IT IS EVEN VERY GENTEEL ,[object Object]

WHEREAS TENNIS HAD A ROYAL BACKGROUND ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

AND BECAME THE GAME OF THE EDWARDIAN LEISURE CLASS ,[object Object],[object Object]

WITH SUITABLE FOUNDATIONS 1897

BUT TAKEN OVER BY HUSSY’S AND YANKEE CARPETBAGGERS 1884 First Wimbledon Ladies ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

BUT IT WAS JUST DAMN BAD FORM TO BE ATHLETIC ,[object Object],[object Object]

AFTER ALL SPORTING EXERTION CAN HARM FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS

SO CERTAIN SPORTS FOR WOMEN CONTINUED TO BE CLASS BASED

WHILE THE WORKING CLASSES CONTINUED ON THEIR VIOLENT WAY ‘MILLING AROUND’

AND MEN WERE SOMETIMES VIOLENT TOO ,[object Object],[object Object]

WOMEN’S SPORTING ACTIVITIES WAS MOVED ON BY TWO UNRELATED DEVELOPMENTS (1) ,[object Object]

SOME OF THE ‘RATIONAL DRESS’ PROPOSALS DID NOT FIND MUCH FAVOUR WITH CYCLING WOMEN -Dr Mary Walker CMO – Marietta Stow 1884 ran for California Gov. – Dr Harriet Austin 1865 – Dr Lydia Hasbrouk

EXTENSION OF PRIVATE AND HIGHER EDUCATION TO WOMEN

HOCKEY AND ATHLETIC DRESS (IT STARED AS A WILD GAELIC GAME)

IT COULD BE MY SCHOOL ,[object Object],[object Object]

ONE TRANSPLANTED SPORT THRIVED IN THE NEW WORLD – BUT I DON’T THINK IT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH COOPERS-TOWN ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

THOSE PILGRIMS ,[object Object]

SO SPORTING LADIES HAVE COME A LONG WAY

AND GIRLS ARE ONCE AGAIN PUNCHING EACH OTHERS LIGHTS OUT

TWO OTHER INTERESTING DEVELOPMENTS ,[object Object]

AND THE RISE OF AN UNFIT SECTION OF YOUNG PEOPLE WEARING THEM?

AND ELITE WOMENS SPORT BECOMING SHOW BUSINESS RATHER THAN JUST ATHLETIC
