Honestly, as far as women’s sport goes, it was… Not bad. Not necessarily because of the performances as such, but because, hot damn, I do not mind watching some of the fittest, most in-shape women out there go at it.
By that I mean aths and swimming, mostly.
Honestly though, it was better than Tokyo, for the most part.
Because it’s Paris, and if Paris knows one thing, it’s how to show itself off and put on a show.
But then, I am both a Francophile (to some extent) and an Olympics fanatic, so this is pretty much my birthday present to myself, to allow myself the time off to watch it, lol.
I’ve just always been very into it. And I played a number of these sports at times during my life (vs others who played AFL, soccer or League, for instance). So I may be a bit biased.
Would recommend the canoe slalom though, if you have time. That was actually very cool. Didn’t notice anything woke about it either.
There were some women's sports that have interested me in the past too, particularly things that I'd say in the US trended more towards women, volleyball for example. Canoe slalom does sound like a cool event, break dancing not so much.
