Olympics - Women's Breakdancing - anyone watching?

There were periods when the Soviet Union and East Germany, with their sports centers and doping, dominated Olympic medals. Now the U.S. is barely on par with China, with its larger population, growing affluence, and commitment to gold medal performances.

Importing millions of short, unathletic Central Americans isn’t going to do anything for the USA. It’s time to acknowledge the U.S. is just another country and at least be glad we outperform India.

Breakdancing isn't a sport. Just another really dumb Olympic event.

I’ll concede the men are slightly better. Still glad it won’t be a sport in LA but men’s is more on par with what I expected (and disappointed by) yesterday

Are you suggesting we base our immigration policy on performance at an athletic event that doesn’t even occur once a year?

It took China an extra BILLION people to find 2 extra gold medals, and still short 30 in other medals.

MAGA trolling is not a serious take.

Dunn is a proponent of breaking and women and women breaking. She is building a breaking culture in Australia.

I can understand not enjoying watching something. I don't understand why you think that should be a criteria for what goes in the Olympics. There are definitely sports I don't enjoy watching, but luckily with streaming, I can just watch something else.

That is not what pp meant. She didn't say i find BD boring so it should not be in the olympics. She said she doesn't think it qualifies at being an Olympic level sport. Two different thought processes.

That's quite charitable.

Here is the paper Gunn wrote about Olympic breakdancing, predicting that the world would hate Australia's women break dancers performing Australian break dance.

she's a phd researcher in breakdancing!

this feels like a nightmare i've had where it's the last day of school and i didn't study for the exam

I suspect gender queer studies was too difficult for her, so she went that route. 🤦🏻‍♀️
