I chose this article because it shows a different side to a subject similar to the one in my community. This article is about how conditions related to stereotypes can affect academic performance along with motor skills. A study was done to research how stereotypical threats influenced women in learning a certain skill in a sport. After running the experiment and testing the women, the results showed that stereotypical threats do in fact have an influence in their motor skills. This topic is very different than the one I've been talking about, but I thought it would be good to see a different perspective on women in sports instead of boys who dance. It just shows that no matter what gender you are, there will always be some kind of discrimination or stereotypes that you have to overcome to do what you love.
