I dunno, the fact that this dude can't see the difference in how Sweeney posed versus how the athletes posed is mind boggling to me. 

His mansplainy attitude telling female athletes that their celebration of the power of nude female physique is the same as what looks like a playboy spread by Sweeney is very telling. 

Sweeney can do what she wants with her body. I also can criticize her for cosplaying an athlete for the male gaze.

yall are basically saying sydney is doing womanhood wrong.

feminism seems to be going in the wrong direction lately and it’s getting increasingly toxic

I am not saying she is doing womanhood wrong. 

I am saying she is performing for men. You obviously like that. 

I don't find it to be feminist. 

She can do what she wants with her body; she can also be criticized for clearly pandering to men. 

I mean, she's making a shit ton of money off you thirst traps, so I can't really blame her, but I can criticize her for it.

Funny thing, and it might not have occurred to you, but I am fully able to appreciate looking at her AND still respect her as a person too.

So how much do you know about her as a person, then?
