Yesterday at work a few people were commenting on how surprisingly clothed the men were in the beach volleyball matches, the women are basically naked while the dudes get to wear a loose top and shorts. Should be wearing a single bikini bottom for the guys.

beach volley ball is really especially bad at this, it's the example my mom pointed out to me about how much the women have to futz around with their clothing to not accidently expose themselves compared to the men

Best choice is honestly everybody just wears what they're comfortable in, but yeah, second best option as per fairness would be to force the men into jockstraps

Let's return to tradition and have the Olympics really be a celebration of every version of exceptional human forms.

Everybody competes naked.

I've heard there have been fights between players and regulatory bodies to ditch the tiny bikinis in favor like sports bras and shorts. Doesn't seem like hte players have one yet.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 7 points 6 months ago

which side is which? regulatory bodies want bikinis? players want sports bras?

[–] Alisu@hexbear.net 9 points 6 months ago

The Brazilian woman's team was wearing shorts, so it's not against regulations, idk why they dont all wear shorts, though

I guess whoever scored last gets to wear it?
