Abstract
Physical Activity and Sport is regarded as a source of health and personal wellbeing and as such, in recent decades have been developed strong effort be to introducing them into the daily habits of the entire population. However, still large groups of women continue to experience the presence of barriers and difficulties in their attempts to access sport. These difficulties give rise to what the WHO called inequities affecting women at all stages of their life and have a clear social and cultural origin. Their presence in childhood and adolescence is subtle and hard to detect because they are trans-mitted by the social environment of the child, even, by the family. The aim of this work is to deve-lop an analysis of them and their influence on the sport at various stages of development and, finally, their impact on health and quality of life of adult and older females.
