Two disturbing stories this week have surfaced to indicate, once again, the only place for a woman in sports appears to be the sexual object of men...
First, a slightly benign one: Video has apparently surfaced (and Deadspin has picked it up) of a Chargers security guard apparently jacking off in his pants to the Charger cheerleaders.
San Diego police have been notified. His company has stated "appropriate action" will be taken. (*snork* The Chargers are gone in two weeks!)
If anyone is offended by me calling that one "slightly benign", here's the other one in comparison:
The continuing sexual abuse mushroom over USA Gymnastics has led to several major revelations, two of which (at least) are particularly disturbing:
- The number of complaints it is now believed USA Gymnastics has been trying to cover up in the name of farming Olympic medals from little female waifs is now well over 300!
- A Michigan physician who had worked with USA Gymnastics and is one of the central targets of the investigation was arrested -- and found with a child porn stash of over 37,000 images, says the FBI, as reported by the New York Daily News.
This is why equality needs to be enforced by force. There are four very powerful words which mask a lot of violence, sexual abuse, drug abuse, etc. -- and they are the four central words to the careers of many who are not in as much power as we'd like to think they are...
"You can be replaced..."
Music industry, television and film, sports, what have you and you name it. If The Powers That Be can replace you and render you irrelevant, they have absolute power over you -- and this is what President Oompa-Loompa made into a reality brand, and now into the Presidency of these United States.
