What does this quote mean? "When sports are gender stereotyped, females participating in gender-inappropriate sports have been found to experience more conflict between their roles as women and as athletes than do female participants in more gender-appropriate sports”

When females participate in a sport that is seen as 'strange/unusual' for their gender, women will be disadvantaged as they are not seen as equals to men who participate in the sport. They will find themselves having to do more to be treated fairly in the sport. This could include lack of respect from peers, sexist criticism, etc. However, when women participate in a sport that is seen as 'suitable' for women, there is less of a need to fight gender stereotypes of women as society has already accepted it as appropriate for women.

it's like watching a fable, it's not really about the animals but rather it has a meaning that is understood by us and that is implicit, not explicitly said. implicit ideas are common and are used in almost all works of art, from writing to painting to sculpting.
