Why do women stars in sports want to be credited or reaffirmed also for their beauty?

Question

Why can't they just compete, make money, and strive to have a successfull career?



My thoughts?
I really think they are just trying to get more mainstream recognition- the easy way. The way they know how. Not the " im gonna work my a$$ off and have these people respect me for the individual skills and character of which is me." But the " the hell with it, they wanna see a$$ and t!tt!es, then I'll do whatever I can to get my name out there, so much for the women's movement, I gotta get mine." It's really a damn shame.

I said they were sports stars, not that they achieved their status by exposing their bodies; but simply set to further their status. Name one who hasn't.

Answer 1

Truthfully, I don't see women in sports doing what you just mentioned. I don't know any serious female athletes who have achieved their status in sports by showing off their body parts. It doesn't quite work that way. You have to have talent.

Answer 2

I can't think of any instances offhand; can you give examples?

Answer 3

Often women sports stars are accused of being "manly", unfeminine, and by implication, lesbian, so I think some women want to prove how feminine they are. Actually, I've heard of sports managers requesting women to do something about their hair or clothing or wear make-up so they looked more socially acceptable. But of course there will always be some people who take the easy way out and misuse their fame. Some male sports stars have misused their talents, so it's not something limited to females.

Answer 4

I'm not sure all of them do , some maybe like they do in any other businesses.

Answer 5

could it be because they are in sports? which is usually associated with masculinity?
