    Default Women Athletes Tired of Being Sexualized At Work…..

    They got tired of being required (probably by perverted men) to have uniforms with their ass out while they perform their job.

    Women’s Pro Volleyball wearing knee length shorts. Singer Pink paying any fines for uniform violation.

    Gymnasts wearing leggings under leotards.

    I say unless they get compensated extra or want to have their ass out…. good for them.

    yeah....the beach volleyball players have been able to choose what they wear since 2012. the overwhelming majority still wear the bikinis because its best at reducing sand build up and still best for hot humid days(which tokyo is having now) One of the american teams talked about how they helped design their bikinis. I think most of them only care about utility. same with divers, and waterpolo players....almost all of them go with the thongish style.(ie not complete coverage) Just got back from Vegas at the pool, just about every woman under 35 made the same choice.......its still a little noticable for someone my age, but i think the younger people dont give it a second thought.

    ^reminds me of the Brazilian tanga style bottoms.

    Not full coverage but not quite a thong. Somewhere in between depending on the size of ones butt.

    Sad because men were complaining on Twitter saying they weren’t going to watch anymore if they couldn’t see some ass. I’m glad Pink was supportive and I think more women need to watch women’s sports. Unfortunately though I think the majority viewers of women’s sports are men.

    I’ve also seen the opposite where women with A LOT of ass were chastised for wearing uniforms that were designed with less coverage.

    It’s like women can’t win for losing.

    There's a long history of sexism at the Olympics. In 1936, one of the women on the US swim team was removed from the team for staying up late and drinking champagne on the ship.

    yeah

    As long as the women are wearing what they want to, its all good with me. The manufacturer of those gymnastic tights that the German team wore said they have been making those for years, but generally go to the more conservative countries where women are told they cant reveal too much(usually by men)

    ^well i guess that’s the point I was making earlier.

    Whether it’s men saying their outfits are too revealing or men saying if they don’t have their ass out they won’t watch. Like a lose-lose.

    So much emphasis on what the women are wearing n their bodies n not the actual sport.

    I remember when people were talking shit about Gabby Douglas for the way her hair looked during the Olympics years ago, and I was like are these people for real right now?! Um...she's an Olympic gymnast doing strenuous activity (Your ass probably can't even do a few sit-ups), so duh...there's gonna be sweating, and Black women already know what that means for our hair...

    And who gives a shit? Stop worrying so damn much about somebody's hair (Actually, that sounds more like something hatin'-ass women would bitch about), and check out her moves and give her props! She wasn't there for a HAIR show...she was there for the GYMNASTICS portion of the freakin' Olympics and she killed it!

    She is now a retired Olympic gold and silver medalist. Wtf have those haters accomplished? Finishing the entire bag of Doritos during the commercial break of a T.V. show? Lmfao.

    I remember that too. Those people are racist assholes. They were trying to take away from her accomplishments.
