Woman bodies have long
been the objects of the male gaze

Perhaps for as long as
women have existed

That's seeped into
the rest of society

And sports
are no exception

Inspired by
the story in...

We shall!

Shall we
fight?

When boxing,

Guess what
I am feeling now

When playing tennis,

And in many other sports, too

They had to wear
what pleased men

Ha!
you must
please me!

I want to respond
you with this one word

So disgusting

Yes, there has
been progress

But conversations like
this still take place:

They play really
good soccer!

Yeah! Did you
just see her?

Ah! She's
just gorgeous

Well, they
have rules

Is it cold
in that outfit?

Leave it!
We love it!

Does their sportswear
work well?

Who cares?

I don't

.....who cares?

Well,

Athletes did.

I feel like
a warrior princess
in this outfit!

* This catsuit worn by Serena Williams
in 2018, made a lot of sensations but
banned by French Tennis Federation

I chose black shorts
because of menstrual realities

* Elena Rybakina is the first woman
who wore black shorts under white,
which Wimbledon doesn't allow. 

Because a uniform
isn't just clothing

It's a message

And the message, for a long time,
has been this:

"Winners must display their bodies"

But now, athletes are sending 
a new message:

"Show skills,
not skin"

These came to mind first
when thinking about
women's sports, so far.

70% of women abandon 
their athletic dreams
because of negative self-image (Link)

It’s time that women’s
sports catered to women.
As one female athlete said…

Finding high performance
clothing is a JOKE....I like to 
look cute too, but I need things
that actually function (link)

This should come to mind first
when thinking about
women's sports, right?

Clothing concerns shouldn’t
compete for an athlete’s energy

"Let them choose
whatever makes them focus
on the sports most"

That's something 
that should apply to everyone,
isn't it?
