Dinner conversation was inappropriate touching, stares and other socially unacceptables.
One GrD was a cheerleader in a skimpy outfit who was lifted in various ways to do elevated tricks, flips, high kicks. In today's spot light, touching, groping. The group was instructed on how to handle unwanted attentions.
Our club tennis pro takes a planned break while the women in short tennis skirts and v-neck tee shirts pick up balls. On TV, the cameramen put the camera on the pro women tennis players bent over. Most televised athletes are critiqued on their fitness levels. MMA?
Anyone else have conversations on this?

If I had attended my friend's family TG, that might have been discussed. Yes cameramen and networks have used the sex sells angle against cheerleaders and female professional athletes for way too long. We don't see cameras hovering over package areas of good looking men as well. Or not to the degree women's anatomy is displayed on screen no matter what your rank and position is.
On screen, I think white woman are exploited that way far more than women of color are. Lots of size shaming for white woman too. I have met far too many white woman in NJ who feel size 0 is the correct size and size 8 is the last acceptable size to be. Sigh.

Media put the pressure on. So many people under eat and over exercise to never reach what ever ideal they had in mind.  |
