Gender & Sports: How Do These Distinctions Shape Who We Become?

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Gender & Sports: How Do These Distinctions Shape Who We Become?
Published: September 8, 2019 by VPR Producer

When we think of a typical high school football player, most of us imagine a sweaty, muscled teenage boy in a uniform. One of our guests this week is K-Lani Nava, the first female football player to play, score and win in a Texas high school state championship game. She, along with Dr. Christia Spears Brown, both discuss the importance of breaking gender stereotypes to play the sport you love.

  • Dr. Christia Spears Brown, professor, development psychology at the University of Kentucky, author, Parenting Beyond Pink and Blue: How to Raise Kids Free of Gender Stereotypes
  • K-Lani Nava, high school football player, Strawn High School, current college student, Texas A&M University
