Abstract
The merging of sex-separated physical education departments has brought the profession to a crossroad that could have implications for future generations. As the merger process has occurred, women have systematically lost more leadership positions than men. Unless the profession takes action, women will remain vulnerable and the loss of women leaders will continue. Possible reasons for the loss of women leaders are discussed. Suggestions for women and men concerned with fostering equal opportunity within the profession are given.
