    They don't really fight, they entertain. It's scripted action like stunt men and women in a movie. The guys that make it big in the wrestling business over the last 15-20 years or so are usually poster boys like Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart in their prime, The Rock, John Cena, Randy Orton over the last decade. Many of them wear less than lingerie and they have as big or bigger an audience of women than men.




    It's not really that evil, no one is forcing the women to do it. They signed up for it.
    That might not be but there is people trafficking, child slavery and the list goes on.

    Before signing the contract, these women had no clue that the LFL would eventually renege on promises to pay medical bills when injured during practices or games. When the players complained about this, the LFL want to sue them.

    That's bad business.

    That's got nothing to do with the actual product you watch on tv, that's a totally separate issue.

    But the problem is that Lingerie Football is a competitive sport and the women are playing to win. They are being told that in order to play football, you have to wear these skimpy clothes. Their first priority is not to entertain you, as the WWE does.

    Also considering sports like beach volleyball where both men and women are exposing a lot of skin, there is an unreasonable amount of exposure when you compare women's (Legends) football with men's football.

    Says who? First, all sports are played with the purpose of entertaining it's audience, it's why all pro leagues make and pay out as much money as they do these days. Second, it's clearly a league created for the sole purpose of displaying t & a by mashing 2 of North American mens favourite things together; football and beautiful half naked women. The women knew this when they first got involved and the women still signed their names on the dotted lines of contracts to take part. They knew full well what they were getting themselves into, they don't need anyone coming to their defense really. If they don't like being part of it, they should have not got involved with it in the first place. And if anyone doesn't like watching it, change the channel.

    Let's be honest, if this was a serious attempt at promoting a woman's American Football league then the women would be covered up with sufficient padding and the players themselves would be a bit butch. Neither is going to be very appealing to the desired male demographic.

    Whether they're attractive or not is irrelevant. It should be about sport, not objectifying them for their attractiveness.

    Bro, you're not getting my point. My own opinion on this is neutral - what I'm saying is that if this was a genuine attempt to promote a high contact physical sport for women, then the players wouldn't be these wafer-thin, barely clothed swim suit models that they currently have. Indeed it's quite clearly just hybridized eye candy for the frat community.

    Well said I agree with this answer. I also can't imagine anybody even coming up with a league where the men only wear speedos.

    Let's face it these women are capitalizing on their looks while they can, this isn't any different than the other scantily clad women in what would be considered a predominately male pass-time ie; in WWE the scantily clad women walking around the ring, same thing in professional boxing, stupid game shows where a woman has to turn the letter, lay across the car, stand practically naked in the boat at boat shows and on and on. As long as women allow themselves to be objectified they will be. Sex sells.
