I'm I the only one that doens't care? I watch F1, and I don't think the grid girls add anything, mostly annoying when they get the focus of the car and on them instead. But that said, I don't give a squat about the halo either so...
I really don't understand your reasons for being a "male" feminist. Sorry I just don't.I think I understand your reasons for being hostile, I just don't agree with them.
I am not being hostile. You guys are. Hostile to the very idea of freedom of choice for all women.
:As you said, it's about the right to do it. The girls don't have a right to do it.
But they do have a right to turn up at an event and wear whatever they want to wear. Fine for female spectators but not the grid girls?

Didn't find it really need my answer to it. Sorry for hurt your feelings.Huh no response to the answer earlier on, I´ll take it.
Don't know why you people keep throwing this video into our faces, for me video is quite stupid and serves more to promote her title sponsor (hey, IT'S DENSO everybody!!! look at me!) than to serve as one honest female (wow, even racer!) opinion.

I mean... let's for a moment just imagine one ALL GIRL (yup F1 is strictly all guys racing club, in case you've forgot) racing series, then we pick ALL BOYS grid, shrinking their clothes year by year, bit by bit... then after we get used to their (mmm) g-string only outfits we come here and say "c'mon they actually want it,we've never force anyone, they practically beg for it!". They are the ones to blame. They are the ones who'll lose their... lol "jobs".
You can always find some people, regardless their sex (there's a male and female prostitutes and strippers right?), who will go low for some amount of money but we shouldn't really encourage that kind of behavior. Especially in something as irrelevant to it as car racing is. It's not like they promote clothes, at least.
"but they look pretty next to it!"This is not '60 or '70 anymore people, sexual revolution and stuff... Woodstock was like a 40 years ago, you people need to *** wake up.
And all you laughing that find Bernie amusing and all of sudden a decent person - I wonder where you have been earlier, when Bernie's support on RD or anywhere else on www was like.... 0.002%. Bring Bernie back. Bunch of hypocrites.
Now, another round of "disagrees" everyone, c'mon people...
everyone on a "disagree" party ! They hurt my feelings really bad !
- In case you've missed it, it's a little red cross down there.x There you are. Attaboy.
Why is it even when a professional female racing driver gives her opinion (throughout many media platforms as stated by her) she's not taken seriously? This is exactly what women, and for that matter any other person, wants. To be heard and to have an input, especially when they are explicitly qualified to offer said opinion as is clearly the case here.
Also, being a grid girl to you is the equivalent of "going low for some amount of money". Correct me if I'm wrong there, that would be a stupendous statement considering the point you're trying to argue from.
I Don't need fries with my hamburger to enjoy it but take my fries away and i will scratch your eyes out!If girls in skimpy outfits is what you need to enjoy motorspots, then you're not really a fan... Here's another clear case of people overreacting on something completely unimportant. There is so much going on on the grid before race start that I don't even notice the girls anymore. I don't even see the point of having anyone at all holding grid signs, especially with TV screen everywhere telling you who's where...
Getting a job with a company then being told exactly what to wear and where to stand and how to smile is not feminist freedom of choice, any more than it would be if Liberty Media dictated the personal clothes of their drivers when they weren't wearing their race suits. It's freedom to choose your own role (and women who want to be promotional models still can be in various capacities off-grid), but to try and claim that it's still freedom when you have to do exactly what your employer tells you is a weird concept. I'd like to drive between stops at work in my personal car wearing my pyjamas, but I'm not free to do that any more than the grid girls were free to wear flat shoes or bundle up appropriately for the weather of their own free choice (I was at Formula E the first time it was in London, and it was bloody freezing on the Sunday, felt proper bad for the gaggle of Visa Girls there in their heels and skimpy dresses. Goosebumps wouldn't even begin to cover it )I really don't understand your reasons for being a feminist. Sorry I just don't.
