Beach volleyball stars boycott Qatar tournament over bikini ban
The Guardian UK ^ | Feb. 23, 2021

German beach volleyball stars Karla Borger and Julia Sude have said they will boycott a tournament in Qatar because it is “the only country” where players are forbidden from wearing bikinis on court.

“We are there to do our job, but are being prevented from wearing our work clothes,” Borger told radio station Deutschlandfunk on Sunday. “This is really the only country and the only tournament where a government tells us how to do our job – we are criticising that.”

No jiggles, once Biden mandates transgenders must be accepted to play beach volleyball. Globs of Silicon don’t jiggle.

Ya but there'll be other stuff flopping up and down. Ugh!

On the other hand, I wonder what the skin cancer rate is for former beach volleyball players?

Two different women let me play with their fake boobs

That happened at a Super Bowl party about 15 years ago. This woman just got a new set, and was letting everyone touch them. All over 40. To be honest, they looked great, but they felt odd. Too hard.

My conclusion as well.
Plus, they should move a certain way during “fun time”.

I had a similar motivation once. I remember being in a Chinese restaurant in Chicago when on the big screen TV came Michael Phelps in his Olympics debut. Two chicks next to me made a comment about the swimmer. I was motivated to finish my Kung Pao Chicken. That was it. :-)

If the men can be in shorts and t shirts so can the women.

Yeah I know you all like the soft core porn...

But they can play just as well with a bit more modesty. I find myself on Qatar’s side here. Stopped clock.

I assume there will be no female sports in a few years. Unless we stop our post modernist trends.

Seriously wonder what will happen to the olympics. Will they go along. Will it be all men, some of whom are pretending to be women?

I like well toned, but I’ve got to have some meat on the bones. If I had to choose between a thin, small breasted women and a woman of substance I’m going big every time. But to each his own. That’s why God made sure women came in all sizes.

High school boys can beat these women. The play is inferior.

The only reason anybody watches is because it’s hot chicks in bikinis.
