Abstract: Based on the theories of social gender, this paper discusses the plight and outlet of female sports development triggered by Dangal. Results indicate that the traditional gender concept, family gender stereotypes, campus environment of gender alienation, and female individual gender role conflict are the restrictive factors to the development of female sports; subjective experience, achievement beliefs, self-esteem, and autonomous motivation are the motivating factors for the development of female sports. Suggestions: Changing the conventional, stereotypical social gender concepts from the perspective of gender equality, and giving more support, recognition, and understanding to female sports participants or enthusiasts can enable female sports develop from participation to persistence, and eventually embark on the road of sustainable development. This research conclusion can provide important reference and inspiration for the development of female sports in China.
