dc.description.abstract | The article aims to present the current situation of women in professional road cycling with a special focus on areas of inequality in media and finance. The research had two main objectives: (1) to analyze the situation of women in road cycling based on secondary data and (2) to gather opinions from women in the cycling community regarding the current situation of women in professional road cycling. Two research methods were used to achieve the stated research objectives: survey and desk research. The survey included 145 women between the ages of 19 and 56 who declared that they ride a road bike or gravel bike. The results indicated that the majority of female respondents were aware of existing inequalities in the areas of finance and media visibility. To explore areas of inequality in more detail, an analysis of the secondary data was also used. The results indicate significant inequalities in prize pools between men’s and women’s races, in favour of the first category. Furthermore, media coverage of women’s cycling remains notably underrepresented. | en |
dc.description.abstract | Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie obecnej sytuacji kobiet w profesjonalnym kolarstwie szosowym ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem obszarów nierówności w kontekście mediów i finansów. Ponadto określone zostały dwa główne cele badań: (1) przedstawienie sytuacji kobiet w kolarstwie szosowym na podstawie analizy danych zastanych oraz (2) poznanie opinii kobiet związanych ze środowiskiem kolarskim dotyczącej obecnej sytuacji kobiet w profesjonalnym kolarstwie szosowym. Do realizacji wyznaczonych celów badawczych posłużyły dwie metody badawcze: metoda ankietowa oraz desk research. W badaniu ankietowym wzięło udział 145 kobiet w wieku od 19 do 56 lat, które zadeklarowały jazdę na rowerze szosowym lub gravelu. Wyniki wskazały, że większość respondentek ma świadomość występujących nierówności w obszarze finansów i widoczności medialnej. W celu bardziej precyzyjnego zbadania obszarów nierówności wykorzystano również analizę danych zastanych. Wyniki wskazują, na znaczące nierówności w wysokości puli nagród w wyścigach mężczyzn i kobiet, na korzyść pierwszej kategorii oraz niedoreprezentowanie treści medialnych dotyczących kolarstwa kobiet. | pl |
