The Internet Can be a Powerfull Tool for Female Athletes

Since the creation of the internet many individuals all over the world have had access to information they would have never come across if it was not for the internet. The internet is an easily accessible source that provides substantial information and allows for people to communicate at a local level, across the country, and even internationally. I think that utilizing the internet is a great way of displaying female athletes outside of the "norm" of the media. The media cannot control what individuals can display on the internet and I think that it gives female athletes the opportunity to portray themselves as they really are, athletes, not supermodels. This gives all those across the world access to view websites, blogs, informative sites, and allow for possible social change. I think that the internet does have great potential for reaching out to many people and it enables female athletes to be seen as "tough" athletes, not sexual objects in bikinis.
