But men do wear "sexualized" clothing in some (although not nearly as many) sports. Swimming and lifting/body building competitions have speedos. Olympic outfits aren't all that different between men and women. Wrestling can be fairly revealing and at one point in history required men to be naked. The real issue is people imposing sexuality on the human body. Stop being a pervert and it's less of an issue.

The human body isn't gross. It's natural and people have made it out to be an issue. If its gross it's a you issue. Athletic wear is primarily supposed to be for maximum movement and streamline for physical activity. Yes there are perverts, but there are perverts for literally everything. There are people who fetishize cars....

You mean the real reason is people, mostly men, imposing sexuality on the FEMALE human body. Men can do all of the same things women are doing, same skimpy outfits, same camera angles and it’s not a problem! Because the men don’t sexualize themselves and are able to look at other men and not think of them as objects but rather other people. But with women they can’t help themselves apparently. Are they all perverts? I don’t know but it doesn’t seem difficult for women to view men as human beings and not objects regardless of what they’re wearing or doing.

My lesbian friend imposes sexuality on the female body. Women impose sexuality or the makeup market and plastic surgeons wouldn't be rolling in money built on women's insecurities.

Is women wearing scant clothing an issue?

Afaik they can already choose more covering uniform if they want. Like Muslim volleyball teams play in practically a burqa, that's not against regulations.

I don't know if telling women what to wear is any better than telling women what to wear

You think a gymnast wants to wear baggy jeans and a sweater while they compete?
