German Gymnasts Are Taking A Stand Against Sexualization By Wearing Full-Body Suits Instead Of Their Former Revealing Outfits

anyone who thinks a one piece for gymnastics is "sexy" should have their head examined. *SIDE NOTE: Germany's "GROUND BREAKING stand on SEXUALIZATION" also includes their coach FACE SLAPPING and SHAKING an athlete before she steps into the ring to compete (IN FULL VIEW). That's right, he slaps HER FACE ... and well "me too"... but their gymastics team is in a longer unitard (face palm)

And aren't they still tight enough to be sexualized? I understand it has to be tight to avoid catching but how about just saying they want them for comfort? I don't leotards are terribly comfortable, but whatever.

This Dad Sews Custom Clothes For His 9-Year-Old Daughter, And Here Are 30 Of The Coolest Ones

hmmm... ironically I think it depends on who is the "bad cop/good cop" (sorry for lack of better language). My dad never once raised his voice to me, my mom was a tornado of yelling when I was in trouble... HOWEVER, when girls were mean to me at school (I was an immigrant kid, we dressed differently, my school lunch was always "weird" to the other kids) it was my mom who said "who cares what they think? They think you're weird? Well weird is AWESOME.. who would want to be like everybody else anyways"? Dad taught me a lot about compassion and kindness/empathy, mom told me when to draw the line and tell them to go F... themselves for small mindedness. It's a balance.

THEN she softened and said, "the thing you get to take credit is for what you create in HERE (pointed to my head) and what you do in HERE (pointed to my heart).. this is where real beauty and magic comes from",.... AND THAT, has kept me in my life, whatever scale I feel I'm in among whatever room I'm in , completely in tune and in check with where my "pretty" and "ugly" feelings belong. They are arbitrarily attachments to somewhat of a lottery.. I DO take credit for the shape I'm in, how I keep the "machine running" and how I dress it... and those elements too help a LOT with presenting your lottery ticket of genes... and after that CONFIDENCE from within. Till I was in grade 11, I lived thinking I was the awkward european tall girl .. and I didn't care. I felt like I had things to learn and grow in my head and my heart.. and sure enough, my favorite compliments are always that my "insides" are attractive to people. Those are the compliments that stick more than "you're hot"

It's ironic that beauty in the eye of the beholder is also relative to culture and your developmental phase. I think what your parents tell you to help you deal with ANY kind of comment on your appearance is KEY. Because whether you get told by some other kid (or adult) that you are pretty and ugly, you will have your parent/s interaction with those terms to guid how much they matter. I was awkward tall giraffe, I would say I looked like a boy for much of my childhood... then one day, in grade four, a teacher told me I was pretty. I was ecstatic because I had heard this word used by then to refer to people and things I too found aesthetically pleasing. I came home and said "Mom! Guess what? Someone called me pretty.!" and she sat me down and very sternly said, "So what? What you look like is a lottery you owe FULLY to your ancestors, you got your looks from me and your father and we in turn got them from our parents so no one really gets to OWN the credit for their looks.
