[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay look, I'm just going to say it. If I were on the women's Olympics gymnastics team it would kill my soul to have to constantly wear Team USA garb. I'd get over it but would hate it. But I am not sure I would be capable of constantly doing every damn thing in a group. I am an introvert and really would need time alone (sleeping doesn't count) each day. Having to eat with people, train, go to all the sight-seeing, etc., all in a group (of similarly dressed people no less), might break me.

Clearly THIS is what's held me back from making the team. If only I could get past these two issues. [/quote]

I would also hate this. This is why I don't do "girls weekends" or whatever. I'll vacation with a friend but only if it's going to be cool for us to do our own thing when we want. And I've always hated any "let's all wear the same outfit!" plan. I have done it fir exactly one bachelorette party and then I was in a weekly exercise class where some of the women organized weekly themes and sent them out and there was intense pressure to conform to theme so they could take photos and post to Instagram. I remember one week having to duck into Forever 21 to buy a floral tank top so I'd be in theme and standing in this line that was like 30 deep withy stupid $8 tank that was probably going to disintegrate the first time I washed it and remembered "oh-- I'm 32 years old and this is stupid."

But I guess I would have sucked it up to be an Olympic gymnast. At least they don't have to buy their own clothes.[/quote]
