The Madness Never Ends: Adidas Hires a Man to Model Its New Women’s Swimsuit
PJ Media ^ | 05/18/2023 | Robert Spencer

Yes, it has come to this. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) tweeted Wednesday: “I’m old enough to remember when women actually modeled women’s bathing suits, not men.” Alas, we’re way past that now in our enlightened age. If men can become top female admirals and champion female swimmers, why can’t they model the latest in women’s bathing suits? Mace was responding to a new ad campaign from Adidas, featuring a male model wearing their new women’s swimwear line.

I'm old enough to remember when women actually modeled women's bathing suits, not men. 🙃

Adidas’ website features this fellow, who has visible chest hair and a noticeably male bulge in the crotch area, wearing the swimsuit even though it is clearly marked as “Women’s Sportswear.” Well, yes, it’s women’s sportswear, but it’s also labeled a “Pride Swimsuit.” Adidas customers, however, are not buying this. The Pride Swimsuit, as of this writing, has 353 reviews, with a 1.1 rating out of a possible five.

These reviews are uniformly negative. A sampling:

Thats a man, not a woman

You guys are wrong for putting a man to model women’s swimsuits. #TransWomenAreMen

Never buy Adidas again!

If this is a womens swim suit why is a man wearing it!! I can’t believe that you have also gone down that same rabbit hole as bud light, good luck as you have just 1 more customer and I’m sure I won’t be the last!!

Discrimination Against Women

Why are you trying to erase women, Adidas? This is not inclusivity; it is exclusionary to present someone who is clearly a male when trying to sell women’s swimwear.

I thought Adidas valued women

If this trend continues I am going to start avoiding western brands altogether.

Asian brands .. that’s the answer. They aren’t into this crap, at least not yet.

I’ll see if my wife wants that suit with the protruding, throbbing unit within it.

Trans and faggots are illegal in China. The US is more evil than China.

I get the feeling that someone in the chain of command of these woke corporations is deliberately sabotaging their brands. A guest on Jesse Watters suggested that even BlackRock might even be behind the scenes in the decision making. Scary stuff.

I have read it, and I would highly recommend it. For a review, I would suggest going to Amazon.com.

Darn, I recently bought an Adidas warmup jacket (but not so recently I can return it). Oh well, no more Adidas products for me.

On the plus side, they are making it extremely easy to know who to avoid. We can all be grateful for that. Clear evidence, no guessing needed.

It is said this idiocy has a rating of approval of 1.1 out of a possible 5. That’s bad enough to can the whole deal, but how do we know if that’s even an actual rating ? Could be a minus-10 knowing how things are done nowadays.
