Unironically... Bring back the Lingerie League.
It was genuinely fairly skilled, at times, had good crowds and viewing figures, and the women enjoyed playing it…
Quite literally, it both was successful internationally, and made the careers of a number of women who have gone on to play other contact sports.
Only ruined by “third wave intersectional feminism”, and fucking ugly leftist prudes who argued it “devalued” the women who voluntarily participated.
Like cheerleading. Or podium girls. Or grid girls. Or “girly magazines” (lol). Or stripping/sex work (more dubiously). Or Playboy. Or being a housewife. Or a lingerie model. Or a “page 5 girl” (England)/centerfold girl (elsewhere). Or fucking any number of other things that women voluntarily chose to do/take part in, until “current year” decided they didn’t even fucking get to choose to do so anymore… 🙄
Seriously. Everyone (at the time) who wasn’t an activist loved that shit. Bring it back. I would even actually voluntarily watch that shit…
Also RIP Jacinda Barclay. I unironically do not think she would be dead, now, if shit like killing the Lingerie League had not happened…
Suicide, for those curious.
