When do you think all of this double standards “Officially” started? Yeah, I’m absolutely sure. I mean, I guess we can go back to slavery for the last thousands of years. Perhaps they were double standards Thin, but I don’t really think we cared about sports that much. This post was edited on 11/7/24 at 7:40 am

You edited your post and still typed out incoherent nonsense.

Using the microphone to type when you’re nearly blind will do that.

Because it’s a flex for dudes and not a flex for women. Are you 12?

I know this isn’t a serious post, but i just dont think it matters as much in women's sports.


This would be my take as well. I'm not sure it matters how much a gymnast weighs because they aren't running into each other. I looked at the LSU men's golf roster because I assumed that was a no contact sport, and there are no weights listed for the men. Presumably because it isn't relevant.

I guess if people want to find things to be upset about, this is as good as any. Men's tennis doesn't list weights either. Let's get MAD.

Because if they field dress more than a buck fifty - it would be insensitive to list their weight !

You really think men’s rosters are legit? Just look at NFL combine measurements where QB’s listed at 6’1” clock in at 5’9”.

For example, In HS my coach listed my 5’10, 200lb self as 6’, 240 lbs and on and on for everyone else.

Still laughing at this one because you don't understand.
