It's a sad reality but most dudes are only tuning in to watch peak athletes in skimpy attire.

If a subset of athletes in a competition are objectively not as good as the rest there usually needs to be another reason to watch. Whether its stories about the competitors or personal experiences or in some cases sex. For example I like watching girls gymnastics because I used to do strength training for a competitive team so I got to learn a lot about it and have a decent understanding. However, if I wanted to simply watch the best gymnasts I would just watch the men. Gymnastics is probably not the best example because they do compete in different events but I do care about the girls competition. That is not the case at all for weightlifting. The girls just arent as strong so I dont have any interest.

Its always been weird to me that womens volleyballers or pole vaulters have to wear what they wear. It makes no sense other than to sell the sex. Its amazing that more of them dont speak up or revolt.
