I get what you're saying but come on. You can basically see her crotch in that picture.
Maybe I'm missing it, but how does adding skin tight leg extensions to her current uniform cover her crotch?

Yeah I mean they're taking away the entire reason for watching.

Shows less skin around that area.
I don't have a very strong opinion on the matter, but like others have said, the choice should be their own.

I was kind of hoping for string tops complimented by a butt floss bikini bottom.

German gymnasts wore full bodysuits at last week's European Championships in Switzerland as a way of making a stance against the "sexualization" of the sport's female athletes.
My, how far we've come since the time fascist prudes ran Western society.

I had always figured the issue would be the skin tight vagina covering while doing various splits.

Agreed.

This is a bit of a tangent. But do you take this to mean 'masculinity is toxic'?

This really doesn't bother me one way or the other as I will not be watching anyway. The girls should wear whatever they feel comfortable performing in.

I’m genuinely surprised it wasn’t to hide a codpiece.

Ah, well that makes more sense.
Toxic masculinity refers to negative aspects of masculinity that could be toxic, not that masculinity is inherently toxic. I hope that helps!

Better not do this shite to women's beach volleyball

Then why did you reply with something so wildly different than what it means?

I am fine with women wearing less-revealing gymnastics costumes. Its fun watching feminists become the new Victorians and prudes. It's like as a species we are going through a time of having to re-learn why all the "traditional values" existed in the first place.
Thanks Boomers, for tearing down all of the trad norms.
Next will probably be figure skating.
After that, there will legit be male/male pairs in figure-skating like that Will Ferrell movie. The only people wearing skimpy clothing will all be hairy-legged gaybois and transmonsters.

Why do you care?

My initial point was that I hate how these folks make claims of moral repugnance without justification and then apply labels to their repugnance and expect everyone to just accept what they claim is reality.

We've all heard the progressive spin on bigoted stances before, save yourself the effort.
