This year’s Super Bowl was a
record year for women. For the first time ever, a female coach coached in the Super
Bowl. This is a big step for women as the NFL has been dominated by male players
and coaches since it began. In recent years there has been an increase in female
reporters and journalists, but this is the first big step in women breaking
barriers into the NFL.
The halftime show, though
controversial, was also a big feminist movement. Two Latina women were the
highlight of the show. Shakira started it off and Jennifer Lopez followed up. Both
women are moms and they showcased their dancing. Many people hated on these women
and slut-shamed them. While this did show a lot of sexism with America, it was
still big that the halftime show was two powerful women. It was inspiring to
see powerful women breaking gender standards and giving other girls the
confidence to be themselves.
