Title IX

Title IX, a law that was enacted in 1972, requires schools receiving federal funds to offer equal opportunities to men and women. This Time Magazine article proposes the argument that this law was originally a good idea, but might it be outdated in the present era? I am all for equality among sexes, but forced equality does not work. In creating this law I believe the government has created a type of ceiling on the number of men in sports. And as we all know, most interference with a free market will end in inefficiency. So why keep a law that is creating a gender quota at many schools. For efficiency and fairness sake, maybe the government should just let athletes (men or women) be.
