In 1990, the issue made its way back into the headlines when Lisa Olson made a public statement revealing that players from the New England Patriots had exposed themselves while interviews were being conducted. This prompted other female reporters who had been harassed to come forward.

Thus, the issue of sexism was still present, despite the equal access to men's locker rooms.
