Homework response: Taking the Field

I think it is unfair how much publicity was put on the Brandi Chastain. Looking back at the situation now, it's hard to believe that while male swimmers walk around on television half naked, a female soccer CHAMPION can't take off her jersey (still being covered) after a tough game. I think it was only a big deal then because society has only started to become more liberal over the past few years. There is more understanding for women now that was certainly not present a decade ago. With Miley Cyrus and other "Pop" stars dancing basically nude on national broadcasts, I think now it would be no big deal if Brandi Chastain were to take her jersey off.
