Yeah, was reading some comments against this. I don't even get why they felt it was necessary. I saw the men's uniforms, just give them that but smaller to fit their frames, or whatever.
Accentuating their vaginas and having their asses hanging out, especially when they're going to be running, is just horny men uniform-designers being jackasses. --- My metal band, Ivory King, has 2 songs out now - allmylinks.com/ivorykingtx (all of our links there so you can choose which one you'd prefer to use) ...

We live in very fickle times indeed Ok, now explain why female athletes don't also have that as their default setting. There are absolutely men who wear speedos to swim just like there are women who wear one piece swimsuits that don't accentuate any part of the female body like a bikini does. Put away your horniness and realize these women will be competing at a high level on live TV in front of the world, which can cause things to fall out and will put their bare ass on display for the world, not going to some beach where nobody except horny pervs secretly recording them will take note. A tank and shorts can and should be very unisex, this is just unnecessarily highlighting female features cause horny dudes gonna horny dude. --- My metal band, Ivory King, has 2 songs out now - allmylinks.com/ivorykingtx (all of our links there so you can choose which one you'd prefer to use) ...

There's dozens of options available for them and that's one of many. They have lots of choices, and if the athlete prefers that unitard it's serving its reason as her preference. Not only that but It turns out the unitard isn't even bad itself as Katie Moon, actually tried it on and it's only the mannequin that it looks weird on. https://x.com/ktnago13/status/1778464208230764787 --- twylite sprinkle http://tinyurl.com/jeqyas3 https://tinyurl.com/mgvx7h2 ...

It's a sad reality but most dudes are only tuning in to watch peak athletes in skimpy attire. If a subset of athletes in a competition are objectively not as good as the rest there usually needs to be another reason to watch. Whether its stories about the competitors or personal experiences or in some cases sex. For example I like watching girls gymnastics because I used to do strength training for a competitive team so I got to learn a lot about it and have a decent understanding. However, if I wanted to simply watch the best gymnasts I would just watch the men. Gymnastics is probably not the best example because they do compete in different events but I do care about the girls competition. That is not the case at all for weightlifting. The girls just arent as strong so I dont have any interest. Its always been weird to me that womens volleyballers or pole vaulters have to wear what they wear. It makes no sense other than to sell the sex. Its amazing that more of them dont speak up or revolt. --- ************************************************ http://i.imgur.com/iZdWIKJ.jpg ...

A big reason why this is an issue is because they did not have alternative options at the Tokyo games. The alternative options available now are a result of this type of pushback. The fact that, even with more options, this is the outfit they chose to highlight, shows where the focus is being directed.
The pushback is there to advance progress. It's how we have gotten as far as we have. If people stop pushing back because some progress has been made, further progress will continue to stop. There is nothing wrong with acknowledging small victories while further advocating for additional reform. Pretending that there is no issue here is disingenuous and erases any historical context that applies here. --- Congratulations! Your post was deemed response-worthy. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Also the picture you used as your example for "it's just the mannequin that makes it look bad" is not the one from the OP. He also provided a link to Katie Moons Twitter post regarding the outfit (she is an Olympic pole vaulter). She mentions how the mannequin might just be bad, as she has tried it on and feels it is similar to previous releases: https://twitter.com/ktnago13/status/1778464208230764787 Someone else asks why men dont wear as revealing track outfits, and she defends it as a preference for herself: https://twitter.com/ktnago13/status/1778540396752327078 She also responds to a comment about how there should be more options: https://twitter.com/ktnago13/status/1778541876343402550 So ultimately, it exists because there is a demand for it. These are athletes competing at the highest level, so they will be requesting outfits that helps them perform at their peak. --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran ...
