Of Women & Washboards

Oh how I am LOVING the Olympics. Not just because Team GB is grabbing golds by the second & we are seeing amazing achievments left, right & centre, I am loving it for shoving fit & healthy female bodies out daily in front of a plastic, huge tits & trout pout mouth obsessed generation.


See the 6'1" tall woman with broad shoulders & tiny boobs? An amazing, fit & healthy gold medal winning swimmer. See the well formed thighs, muscular arms & stunning washboard stomach of Jessica Ennis? The best all round athlete in the world. Perfectly normal & at the peak of physical perfection. See the stout, well built woman without a scrap of makeup on & messy hair? Silver medal winning Judo champion. It has been a breath of fresh air.

Not one size zero freak, no gravity defying fake breasts in our faces, nothing more than a slick of lipgloss on the interview couch - please god can we see more of these real women for a change? But sadly we have to ask - would Vogue ever dress our Jess??

And how fabulous were the womens cycling team? Joanna Roswell, who has suffered with alopecia since she was a child stood bald headed & proud with her gold medal; no pretending, no hiding; she had just won Olympic Gold. Who cares if she has hair?!
