Hey you IOC people!!! Let women Ski Jump.

[ScreamingMeemie]

We all know it's because women go farther, and higher...and not some silly,"they'll get hurt argument"...It really irks me they won't allow women to compete in the ski jump and use that lame excuse.

1. No way

Those tight suits would give you a taco's edge advantage flying through the air.

6. And you know you would be watching...

all. the. time. :)

8. with an inappropriately placed saxophone reed, ski jumping

would be a very sublime experience, I would imagine :-)

2. I know, there is still much discrimination in the Olympics still

If I'm correct, there also isn't two-women luge nor is there 10k speed skating. They give the women 3k but no 10k. Let them go the distance - women can handle it!!

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. Really. They score better than men in the ski jump.

I really believe this is the reason they are holding them back. I also think there should be female divisions of each sport if there is a female willing to participate. :hi:

3. Tangentially: I hurt myself laughing. Do you ~know~

how funny it is to watch people do moguls on fast forward?

[ScreamingMeemie]

4. No...but I'm going to have to try that now.

:rofl:

5. I didn't even realize that there was no women's ski jumping...

shows how much of a feminist and an olympic enthusiast I am

9. A lot of people don't bother with the Winter Olympics. My father just

left and the whole time he was over he was complaining that the "Winter" Olympics aren't really the olympics. Sigh...this coming from the man who made us go to Lake Placid to look at the "stuff" three times...in the summer. :hi:
