Why do you think that women tennis players expose more skin than their male counterparts?

Question

female tennis players usually wear skimpy dresses with too much of their skin exposed...and still play slower than men who are usually wearing long shorts and sleeved shirts. Do you think women feel hot always, and men feel cold always?

Answer 1

Because it is fashionable and acceptible for them to do so.  Men playing with short shorts would look like idiots (at least given today's fashion trends).

Answer 2

For movement. Trimming up the leggings and having short skirts/shorts allows for more mobility.

Besides, the women wear certain clothing that covers important areas anyway.

Men also wear shorter shorts....although not as short as the womens, but that is usually the case with most people.

I mean, as far as casual clothing guys, tennis or not, men are not known to expose themselves as much as, or more than females.

Answer 3

I believe more women show more skin because throughout the evolution of the fashion industry, there are many parts of a woman's body that she can show, and still be considered acceptable. However if a man was wear a t-shirt that reveals his navel, or a t-shirt that falls very low to reveal the "male cleavage" (if there is even such a thing) then he would look, ah well... simply ridiculous wherever he goes. LOL

And personally when it comes to tennis I believe that both men and women show equal amount of skin, that they are allowed to. There was a time, not to long ago, where a male tennis player could not even show his arms and biceps. Now these days, sometimes you wish you could tell some of these male players to cover up because it's really not pretty to look at. Arm Pit hair is just grossed to look at in both women and men in my book. Cover up if you know you have them. LOL That's just me!!! LOl

Answer 4

I think women tend to show more skin in most areas of life. Its just a woman thing. There's really no reason for a man to have plunging neckline, we don't have b***s to show off.

Answer 5

I think they do it to get a tan mostly. They could also be using it for movement. I think it is mostly for tanning purposes.
