Outrage After Female Tennis Star Asked to 'Twirl' on Court
Quote:It's a twirl that now has some heads spinning.

Just moments after seventh-ranked Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard crushed her opponent in 54 minutes to advance to the third round of the Australian Open on Wednesday, Australian commentator, Ian Cohen, asked her to “twirl” to show off her hot-pink outfit.

The interviewer’s request has now sparked a flood of criticism and cries of sexism.

In a video of the incident, Bouchard can be seen on the tennis court following her easy defeat of Kiki Bertens in the second round of the competition.

Cohen then tells the 20-year-old: “Now yesterday, or last night, you tweeted that you loved Serena [Williams]’ outfit. ... She was kind enough to give us a twirl. Can you give us a twirl and tell us about your outfit?”

Damn!!!!

Side note. I love Canadians. They dgaf about some of the political correctness like we do. This was harmless and just having a good time. Figures they'd have to get some ugly lesbo's commentary on it though.

Just more proof that folks look for things to complain about. The entire interaction seemed innocent enough to me.

Is this really an issue? We have semi naked female models on runways showing off the lastest fashions, so what's the deal with this? If we give women attention and credit for their hard work at looking good it's sexism. If we ignore them then we're not treating them as equals.

I'm willing to bet that most of the women who are complaining about this look like Janet Reno.

It's funny, the same folks that are "outraged" give all the "Kardashian show off rump" or "J Lo wears a plunging dress", etc. online articles a ton of traffic. Maybe if they are so outraged they shouldn't visit all the other entertainment garbage they do.

She did not look offended. In fact...She looked to enjoy the moment and had fun with it. People need to mind their fcking business.

Sadly, I don't think it's jealousy. Liberal feminists are just that stupid. These are people that think prostitution is more profitable for women than men because of sexism
