Seems like a good idea to have Animes for every race.

If you're a sad middle aged man who needs to perv on women less than half your age to enjoy something there's this thing called the internet, you can access it any time you like. Yeah grid girls are super cringy, at least do 50/50 grid girls/grid studs so it's not as obviously creepy.

I honestly couldn't care. They were there by their own volition, and for a lot of models, it's a decent gig. I do find this particular strain of American neo-puritanism a bit icky though.

I'm pretty sure there is alot worse poo poo these models do for a gig. There's alot of poo poo I kind of think society has a stick up their rear end these days but I can't be bothered enough to complain.

Calling this "American neo-puritanism" is quite sincerely the most dumbfuck, ignorant poo poo I have ever seen in my whole life, and I actually mean that. What the gently caress, guys.

Focusing on the small insignificant poo poo is what detracts attention away from more serious issues that need actual attention and effort to resolve. There's legit social issues to get very pissed about and call for action. Some chicks receiving a wheelbarrow full of cash to hold a sign for 20 minutes isn't one of them.

Yeah if Roe v Wade is overturned later this year, it will be because too much social issue energy was expended on getting rid of grid girls. That's just how these things work I guess

'Chicks' only being seen in F1 as objects to be leered at is a very visible sign of the entrenched sexism in motorsports, and taking a stand on it is worth doing, even though there are worse things happening. It doesn't have to be one or the other. F1 teams have been doing a good job getting better representation of women in all departments (except on track so far), and having 1950s 'glamour' is just a bit pathetic and out of date

Feels Villeneuve posted:They should just have it be kids imo. Just pick some random young fans and have them hold signs and get to stand by the cool rear end cars and drivers. It shoudl be this, like the mascots in football. I think it's fun and you end up with cute moments like when a child asked Adam Ounas who the hell he was while walking on to the pitch.

It doesn't have to be one or the other. I don't follow the reasoning, honestly. Firing a load of women because you don't approve of their job is a lot of things, but it's hardly progressive. F1's had two good (okay, one) team principals that happened to be women, and it's in management and engineering where they're most likely to be found right now. I doubt either of them particularly cared about grid girls one way or the other. It's a job. I think this is all about climate and optics, so excuse my cynicism.

You are extremely wrong, and your attitude is the problem. Telling women their only asset is their physical appearance, and that they owe it to men to live up to our standards of appearance, is a huge part of these "more serious" issues you hint at.

If your grabbing your standard of an ideal women from some chick that is holding a sign next to a car for 20 minutes you've made some incredibly poor life decisions. Male or female.

Little girls turn on F1 and they see a bunch of men treated as heroes and showered with praise, and all around them are women standing still and doing nothing but looking pretty. What message do you think this sends about their place in society? You are saying "ignore this and focus on the big problems" and yet they cannot be separated. They are not two distinct things.

And again, if we focus only on their appearance, over and over again, for their whole lives, what does that do to Fernando's confidence? He thinks we care only about his looks and goes and tries to kill himself in broken Hondas.
