Aome women's rights groups are not happy with the "sexist" uniforms that the women's volleyball players are wearing at the Paris Olympics...
quote:

Beach Volleyball is one of the most popular sports in the Olympic Games each year - and often the most talked about.

The stark differences between uniforms for men and women are often pointed out, with the latter wearing figure hugging high-rise bikinis, whereas their male counterparts don loose loose tank tops and shorts. ..

[In 2012] the International League for Women's Rights held a protest in the capital city against gender discrimination in the sport.

At the time, Annie Sugier, spokeswoman for the International League for Women's Rights, told Forbes: 'They are using women's bodies as sex.

'It is all about money. It makes women look like objects and it is a clear case of sexism.'

At the time, female athletes said that while people may tune in to view them in tight swimwear, they will stay for the sport. …

Aussie Natalie Cook said she was 'OK with it' as it is the 'only sport where women dominate,' whereas Misty May-Treanor added that 'what you see is what you get'.

Some women actually prefer wearing bikinis as they say two-pieces prevent sand from getting trapped in their uniform, as they dive into the ground to save the ball.

Retired player Jennifer Kessy told Today that that sand was 'restricting' and 'limiting' her movements. …

Female volleyball players are now allowed to play their sport in leggings, with Marie-Sara Stochlova from the Czech Republic recently taking advantage of the changes.

French players Alexia Richard and Lezana Placette donned shorts and t-shirts under their bikini tops last week.

Feminists are about the same level as PETA. These outfits are fine, but port and prostitution are empowering.

so feminist groups are now wanting women to desexualize themselves? They are essentially slut shaming these athletes. When will they start demanding trans people cover up?

Men can fight women in olympic boxing and the leftists defend men beating up women. But women choosing their own outfits while playing other women is too far. Fricken socialists.

My only complaint is some of the participants had entirely too large of a bathing suit on, both top and bottom!
