But should the athletes be scantily clad?
Several years ago I was watching the women's track team run in unitards that pulled up between their butt cheeks. Frankly I found it very unappealing. Further, I wondered how the athletes felt about their attire. After all, they do not choose their outfits -- the team is provided outfits by whatever company sponsors them. Anyway, even with the beautiful bodies on these runners, I thought the outfit did not serve them well.
This is an issue with Olympic aquatic sports. The divers wear small Speedos; the swimmers wear sleek, body-hugging suits. If you watch closely, you'll notice the divers pulling the suit out from between their cheeks. Granted, the divers do a lot of twisting and bending which causes their suits to pull up; nevertheless, I can't imagine how uncomfortable it is to constantly readjust the attire after completing the dive.
I have been given some slack for these opinions. Still, any girl who has to constantly readjust her bra strap can appreciate what I'm saying -- if the constant readjustment is done after each dive, couldn't we agree that the garment just doesn't fit properly?
Anyway, if I had a great body, I'd want to wear something that highlighted the hard work. Just saying.
