I mean, we wouldn't want her to be sweaty, right? Also, maybe she just has dark eyelashes, but I think she's wearing a bit of eyeliner on her upper lids. You know, to play soccer. Because of course she is. <br /><br />Still, all girls who drop out of sports become insta-sluts? What's up with that? What about the girls who drop out of sports because they'd rather take music or art lessons? What about the girls who get their period for the first time and suddenly don't feel so hot about sharing a shower with a bunch of other people? What about the girls who go to schools in which sports participation is mandatory for boys and not for girls at a certain grade level, and they drop out of sports because they never liked sports to begin with? Do they start dressing like runway models too? <br /><br />It's weird. I support the main message and goals of this organization, and I won't deny for a second that girls are bombarded with societal messages that might cause them to drop out of sports (among other things), but this video really creeped me out. <br /><br />I am not criticizing you, of course! I love your blog, and I'm really happy to read a new post! I just wanted to say that the video gave me a lot to think about, so thank you for sharing it.Kathrynhttp://japaneseliterature.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
