Yeah for progress

While I agree with this, allowing guys to do this is a great disservice to the girls and needs to hbe highlighted to discourage its acceptance

 

As to the gymnastics example I do think it is a worthy discussion. At some point college athletics could move towards recruiting “hot” athletes vs good athletes for the money. But ultimately I think it is an overall good thing that athletes can profit on marketing their likeness, and like it or not attractiveness plays a role.

 

And apparently the board isn’t that upset by it. Cast about for something else to be outraged about. Based on your posting history I’m sure you can find something.
(Setting aside seditious conspiracy by a president and his party)

 

Can’t criticize the gymnast for making money off her looks as well as her talent. She isn’t the first and won’t be the last.

 

I’ll throw the Op a bone to be outraged about.

Have Niomi Biden and her Fiance been living at the WH?

Wut the heck?

Outrageous. No really I’m outraged!

Why is Hunter Biden's daughter living at the White House?

 

I agree, and always have. But on my list of things I care/think about, this stuff is so far down my list. For what I want politicians focusing on, it doesn't even register. Yet we get these threads every week because all the GOP can latch onto is culture war stuff.

 

Now that I turned off the football game .... let me say that I did read the article. It doesn't demonize her, it quotes some people who disagree with her approach. And Coach Vanderveer is certainly in position to have an opinion about women's sports. Likewise with Haley Jones, the Stanford player. She won't do bikini photos but acknowledges that women are going to be sexualized no matter how they dress.
They are women with opinions, that's all.

As far as the runner, I imagine most stories about her are negative. Who exactly is calling her running 'progress for women's athletics?'

 

Another thing that strikes me is that womens’ gymnasts is somewhat sexualized with the outfits and the dancing routines. That’s not new and may have something to do with it being more popular than mens’ gymnastics.

 

The thing I'm most upset about with this story is that podium has spots for the top 6, instead of top 3. That's just communism.

 

Sounds like a mirror image of the results of the 2018 mid terms. Funny how that happens. Well not funny really. It’s kind of pathetic.

 

I agree. Medals and Ribbons mean very little in the individual sports. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd should be recognized as achievement. 4th-6th are just participation.

 

I agree. They spent so much time pointing out the flaws in the Democrat's plans that they never offered one of their own. If only one came forward with any plan, it would have been a red wave.

 

progress, this just won a beauty pageant that is a precuror to Miss New Hampshire that leads to Miss America.

 

She must’ve killed it in the talent portion.

 

Oh man. A precursor to Miss New Hampshire! How are you going to go on living? I applaud your courage

 

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

 

lets be honest here if this guy was an actual woman he would not even have made the stage. But reality gets tossed for transgenderism and progress that is the real issue.
