NYT on Livvy Dunne: New Endorsements for College Aths. Resurface an Old Concern: Sex Sells

Dunne, 20, won’t give specifics on her earnings, which at least one industry analyst projects will top $2 million over the next year. “Seven figures,” she said. “That is something I’m proud of. Especially since I’m a woman in college sports.” She added: “There are no professional leagues for most women’s sports after college.”
quote:
But the new flood of money — and the way many female athletes are attaining it — troubles some who have fought for equitable treatment in women’s sports and say that it rewards traditional feminine desirability over athletic excellence. And while the female athletes I spoke to said they were consciously deciding whether to play up or down their sexuality, some observers say that the market is dictating that choice.
The ugly feminists are mad

quote:
Race cannot be ignored as part of the dynamic. A majority of the most successful female moneymakers are white. Sexual orientation can’t be ignored, either. Few of the top earners openly identify as gay, and many post suggestive images of themselves that seem to cater to the male gaze.
Are they truly surprised that masculine lesbians that play college basketball have low NIL value? The market doesnt lie

Dunne has had a HEAVY social media following for years, even before LSU. Its funny to watch people get worked up over this.
She is an in shape, attractive female gymnast. She is very marketable to fashion, makeup companies and other things. She isn't some whore cashing in doing only fans. People are losing their minds over nothing.

She just got free advertising and a bunch of new clicks.

Libs need to make up their minds. Do they want women to have the opportunity to make NIL like male athletes or not. Can’t have it both ways. Unless she’s in a nudie magazine I don’t see the issue.

Its a fair point that its a concern…..but she knows that and is embracing it. And if she wants to do that and have a bunch of 50 year old men ogle her, then more power to her

They're probably going to try to tell us next that unusually tall African Americans play basketball better than some of their white counterparts.

Same thing. She’s selling her body. I’m for it, but to pretend it’s really different is just stupidity.

To be fair, if she was in a nudie magazine I would see that issue.

Feminists are jealous?
No way..
No way..

This is a cheap shot by a once high quality newspaper. It's the Times that's using (misusing) an elite athlete to advance its over woke agenda.

Settle down Beavis. Someone just brought it up and it’s a valid statement. A woman’s worth should not be based simply on how she looks.
That being said, I have no issue if any woman wants to do this, pose nude, or frick for cash.

They posted it with a full body shot of her atop the article. Tone deaf.

I guess.
I guess I'm not sure if I want to put modeling clothes (even bathing suits) and other fashion/makeup things on the exact same levels as flashing my tits on the internet.
She is attractive, she is good with social media marketing/making connections and she is maximizing off of it. So good for her and smart on her part.
But the gist seems to be people are getting stirred up that fit attractive people are profiting.

Hot women on social media is an entire industry completely separate from college sports
