Considering the consequences of integration/segregation in education and sports for girls and women The purpose of this paper is to create a base for discussions and considerations concerning integration and segregation in physical education and sports. The themes that I wish to elucidate are history and future, attitudes and valuations in connection to integration and segregation. The focuses are illustrated in the following questions. -What can we learn from the history of integration and segregation, from our own experience and from worldwide knowledge and experience? -Which strategies may further girls’ and women’s conditions in the field of physical education and sports? -Which strategies may further a good (better) development of this field for girls and women as well as for boys and men? -Generally the concepts of integration and segregation have been, and are, surrounded by unequal attitudes and valuations, implying that a more positive view is connected with integration compared to the view connected with segregation. How do these different views influence the conditions of physical education and sports and the actors involved? -Generally the concept of sports has been, and is, surrounded by a male aura. "Sports is created by men and for men". The concept female or women’s sports implies is that this kind of sports deviates from the norm. How does this "deviation" influence girls’ and women’s conditions in integrated and in segregated physical education and sports?
