ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Participation of women in the Olympics

Hey there kiddo, let's talk about the Olympics and how girls can take part in it just like boys!

A long time ago, only boys were allowed to participate in the Olympics. But now, girls can too! Yay!

It wasn't easy though. A lot of women had to speak up and ask for the chance to compete. They had to show everyone that they were just as good as the boys.

Now, both girls and boys compete in the Olympic games. They run, jump, swim, play basketball, and do loads of other sports too.

Sometimes, people still think that boys are better at sports, but that's not true. Girls can be just as good, or even better!

So, the Olympics is a place where boys and girls can show off their skills, and we should cheer for them both!
