  • Racing for Equality in Women's Competitive International Rowing

Racing for Equality in Women’s Competitive International Rowing: The Change of Women’s Racing Distance from 1000 Meters to 2000 Meters Amanda N. Schweinbenz University of British Columbia In 1954 the Fédération Internationale des Sociétés d’Aviron (FISA) hosted the first-ever Women’s European Rowing Championships, in Maçon, France. However, the FISA delegates of the 1950s, all of whom were men, were reluctant to allow oarswomen unbridled access to international competition, and thus oarswomen were limited in the number and type of events available for their participation. In parts of the Western world, “highly conventional, idealized notions of female desirability” were emphasized.1 Robust women were considered vulgar, and women’s physical activity was “carefully monitored, regulated and circumscribed” because “feminine demeanor was insisted upon.”2 Some FISA delegates supported this ideology and argued for the creation of “another form of rowing for women, one that wouldn’t develop muscles.”3 It was agreed that FISA would establish international regula- tions for women’s competitive rowing that took into account both the physiological and cultural considerations of the nations involved.4 The men made the decision to shorten the women’s racing distance to half that of the men’s—1,000 m rather than 2,000 m—as a way to prevent oarswomen from overexerting their delicate bodies.5 Anita DeFrantz, a former international oarswoman and current FISA vice-president, reminisced about this restriction and pointed out the following: “we raced a 1000 metres and we objected to it from the beginning because we knew that we were racing 1000 metres because that was half what the men raced.

While the entire Project includes a land based portion as well, the marine archaeological assessment focused on the approximately 600 metre long shoreline and in-water areas. For the purposes of the marine archaeological assessment, the limits of the Project area will be confined to the in-water and previously lakefilled areas. The marine archaeological assessment is comprised of background research and in-water archaeological assessment extending 250 m into Lake Ontario. TRCA with support from the City of Toronto, completed an Environmental Study Report (ESR), in accordance with Conservation Ontario’s Class Environmental Assessment for Remedial Flood and Erosion Control Projects (Class EA) to develop a long‐term solution to address the shoreline erosion around Gibraltar Point (TRCA, 2008). Work was conducted under a marine archaeological license (2016-13) held by Scarlett Janusas. The field portion of the archaeological assessment was conducted over a period of days in September and October of 2016 under good conditions.
