Did you know? This August, the Paris Olympics achieved a "significant milestone." For the first time in history, female athletes have been allocated the same number of Olympic slots as male athletes. This means that this Olympics has become the first in history to fully achieve gender equality, marking a significant step forward in the field of sports. Thomas Bach, President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), responsible for organizing the Olympics, stated that this milestone is "one of the most important moments for women in the history of the Olympics and sports as a whole."
Respect in Every Detail
This groundbreaking initiative at the Paris Olympics is not just about numerical balance; it is a profound recognition and respect for the power of women. From the elegant design of the female emblem, to the first-time equal participation of female equestrians in the competition, and to posters themed around women that are spread across every corner of the city, every detail tells the story of progress in gender equality. Everything silently proclaims: on this stage, everyone has the right to pursue their dreams, regardless of gender.
The Steady Growth of Female Power
Since women first participated in the Paris Olympics in 1900, they have come a long way in Olympic history, accounting for only 2.2% of all participants at the time. According to reports from the Olympic news website "Around the Rings," most female athletes participated in sports like golf and tennis, which the public deemed "suitable for women." Due to "insufficient physical strength," women were banned from participating in long-distance track and field events after the 1928 Amsterdam Olympics. However, the number of female athletes steadily increased, and the growth accelerated after the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, with women making up 23% of participants. By the 2012 London Olympics, women accounted for 44% of participants.
Radiating Charm, Writing History
In this land full of hope today, female athletes of all ages, skin colors, and disciplines are showcasing their unique charms and making history. For example, "Comeback Queen" Zheng Qinwen, who won China's first Olympic tennis singles championship; Ni Xialian, who at 61, continues to pursue her table tennis career despite her age; Simone Biles, who overcame the pressure of public opinion and withdrew from three Olympic Games, winning three Olympic gold medals in gymnastics; Jiang Mingxi, a female épée fencer who overcame knee ligament injuries twice to win her first Olympic gold; and Taiwan's Olympic boxing champion Lin Yuting, who broke gender stereotypes. They embody the saying, "There is no standard for beauty, and passion knows no age." It echoes Eileen Gu's statement, "Sports also belong to girls." Yes, they are writing their own history and becoming whoever they want to be.
Physical and Mental Health, Accompanied by BROTH
As this Olympic Games concludes, we should also pay attention to the physical and mental health of women in their pursuit of dreams. According to WHO data and multiple studies, modern women face a significantly higher risk of gynecological diseases when balancing careers and family. The global incidence of gynecological diseases among women exceeds 93%, with breast diseases being particularly prominent. The reasons behind this are complex, involving work pressure, accelerated pace of life, environmental pollution, hormonal imbalances, and mental health. Therefore, maintaining women's health is crucial.
