Sport is beneficial to all, and at every level. It improves health and self-confidence through greater awareness of one's body. It is also a way of learning how to show solidarity and how to excel one. The Olympics, an international competition on a large scale, are particularly representative in this respect: the number of women taking part in the Olympic Games has been growing steadily since they first took part in 1900, but inequality remains.

Media, notably, plays a great role in projecting male and female athletes out in the public s eyes. As a result the present study was conducted to compare media portrayal of female and male athletes.
