[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree, op. Watching with my teen dd and she just said “I bet the male gymnasts don’t have to jazz hands.” [/quote] Congratulations to you and your daughter for this excellent example of internalized misogyny! Yes, let’s always make sure to compare women to men. In order for whatever it is women are doing to not be “stupid” it must be what the men are doing! God forbid women’s gymnastics includes any display of athleticism that is (relatively) unique to women. (e.g. grace) If I want to just watch straight up feats of strength and displays of raw power, I’ll just watch the men. They could easily wipe the floor with any of the female gymnasts any day in that regard.[/quote]
