12. That's what title 9 did.
There were far fewer programs for women before title 9 was enacted.

Let's put it this way: Do you honestly think that if title 9 were eradicated, that schools would put the extra money they save by getting rid of the "unwanted" women's programs into the sports like wrestling? Do you think that public schools in particular, who are struggling with less and less funds will be any more inclined to keep the less popular sports if title 9 were eradicated? Wrestling and other non-football/basketball sports are suffering because there is less money to go around. It isn't because the women came and took the ball away.
