Half Naked beach Volleyball Women at the Olympics Are they Bad Role Models for Young Girls

The half naked bodies of the Olympics



Female beach volley ball is probably one of the only Olympic sports I don`t watch too often and I never watch the match if all there is are half naked almost middle aged women, in some cases. Let’s face it, even men would have a problem watching the cookie cutter bodies of cougars in bikinis.
I watch women`s volleyball if and when some of thewomen beach vollleyball  teams are playing because they are appropriately dressed for a sporting event that children watch and not wearing bikinis does not appear to affect their game terribly. «you may say that perhaps that is how the game is played in real life. My answer would be, yes if you are on the beach and not in a stadium.

It is surprising that the International Volleyball Federation announced that it would `permit ` shorts and tops other than bikinis in the 2012 Olympics.  With the need to encourage the participation  more women from different cultural backgrounds  it is hard to understand that bikinis are required wear for beach volleyball. Of course we know who make the rules – men and maybe it is the bikini and not sporting ability that makes women`s volleyball  such a popular sport
