I remember like a year or two ago there were people advocating to change female uniforms in certain sports because they said they were too sexualized but they're still wearing the same stuff years later so I wonder, is there an actual practical reason for these uniforms or is it just fan service? Like what stops gymnasts or track runners from wearing normal shorts instead of skin-tight clothes?
You've all probably seen at least one or two of those female track runner/jumper videos where their ass is hanging out of their uniform. Can a sports scientist justify why their uniforms are actually like this?
Meant to post in off-topic. GG
