GUYS PLEASE READ THIS AND READ THIS CAREFULLY. THIS IS SO APPALLING. She literally has a medical freaking condition that could KILL her and they aren’t allowing her to accommodate for it. They can just admit that they’re just tired of this unstoppable black woman dominating and want her to be forced to retire or they want her to get seriously injured/sick. I’m so fucking sick of the elitism (and racism and sexism) that comes with tennis it truly is the worst of the globally popular sports. They should be fucking ashamed. This is sexism and misogyNOIR at its finest.
This is so infuriating. These people act like they’ve never seen a workout outfit before. 90% of the women in the gym and aerobic classes I go to wear tights and shirts like these, including me. They may not be the special compression kind, but they look exactly the same.
It isn’t really the suit they have a problem with. If Sharapova wanted to wear something like that, hell, they’d probably brand it as official merchandise. They have a problem with the black woman’s body that the suit is on.
I know, I just feel like it makes it even more blatant that it’s racism when they throw a fit over her wearing what’s really just normal sports/workout gear. Like, they’re trying to make people buy into this narrative that it’s some sort of weird costume “cat suit” when it’s the same Nike shirt and tights a lot of gym people wear.
