I love how she's attractive, and doesn't seem to care, but fatties, uggos, feminists and white knights are offended on her behalf.

Stop it, fat fucks. You're ruining for the attractive people.

Part of what feminists do is look into literally anything and put some sort of misogynistic, oppressive, and patriarchal spin on it out of thin air. It's frightening yet quite astonishing what they can come up with.

There's no comparison.

Rafael would happily grab his ass, to approving screams of lust from the (female) hambeasts watching in the stands.

[eradicator]

why on earth would she be upset about asking to show off? look how happy she is at 10 seconds in, she is absolutely gushing. i love athletic women, she is at least an 8.5, great looking and good, fun attitude to boot.

[Kitsune]

This is such a non-story. It's not like the guy told her to strip off her clothes in front of the stadium. They could all see what she was wearing. It's not like she was offended. Reporter made a joke, she played along, crowd gave a little cheer. Girl feels happy. Everyone else is happy too. It was actually quite a nice video all around.

The people who are offended are the same people that are constantly campaigning to get Page 3 and lad's mags removed. They don't harm anyone, nobody is really offended, it's just a bit of fun and happiness that some people want to ruin for everyone.

They should be ignored as such.

[El Chinito loco]

She has a great athletic body and a pretty face and she doesn't look like a tranny (Serena) so the feminists and fat ogres of the west are displeased of course.

[Hades]

She's clearly having a great time. The whole world gets to focus on her outfit for a moment and she gets to show off.

These feminist haters are some fucked up people for sure. They can't even be happy for Bouchard.

[Horus]

It's interesting that she twirled upon command. She didn't even hesitate. In the presence of an authoritative man, she did what she was told.

This is not equivalent to asking Nadal to show his beceps. If he were to do so, he would only be displaying the masculinity that enabled him to become dominant in a competitive pursuit. In the case of women's tennis, where women are pursuing the same masculine goal, showing off their outfits and doing a twirl is misaligned with their sport but completely aligned with their nature as women. There is no female equivalent in sport to the flexing of muscles.

A covert way to uncut their competition by pretending to be on their side. It is akin to a business using government to punish customers that shop at the rival business hence depriving the rival business of their customers and their income.

[Lizard King]

Original video removed.

Here is the 'sexist request'.

[Zep]

^^^ did I hear wrong? At 5 seconds he says "she was kind enough to give us a twirl"...apparently in reference to Serena Williams...where's the outrage on Serena's behalf?

Showing "an outfit" is a polite proxy for showing your body....a hambeast in the same outfit would not be considered sexy. Your legs, glutes and core get you into position and drive your racket as much as your arms. Displaying sexy legs, a tight ass and toned abs in a sexy outfit is pretty much the same kind of physical display of an athletic body as flexing a bicep. These are the tools that got her to the elite level she is, and she should rightly to be proud to show them off.

I can hear the hamsters raging from here. Let's look at this:

1) She's pretty
2) She knows she is pretty
3) It's not a big deal to her

1) by itself is going to send the hamsters spinning just by the fact she exists.

1) combined with 2) sends the hamsters into overdrive. For all the girl empowerment BS, feminists absolutely hate a woman who is pretty and confident. Think of Beyonce as the counter-example here. Pretty and using your beauty as a bludgeon, as a means to boost your ego, as a way to look down upon others? A-OK. Especially if its men. Acting like your beauty makes you queen bitch ruler of the universe is the empowerment the feminized media preaches. Pretty and just confident as a result? Awful.

3) is what really brings the hate. She's on TV. She knows she's pretty. All the guys watching know she's pretty. All the women watching know she's pretty. The announcer brings voice to the elephant in the room and asks her to twirl. Her reaction? Surprise. To her, the request is completely out of left field. Think about that for a second. She's beautiful, she's in the spotlight, and she's got millions of people watching. Every jealous harpy is fuming at this point, because the thing they envy about her the most, her attractiveness, wasn't even on her mind until the announcer asked her.

Not only does she comply to this request (from a MAN nonetheless), she's clearly delighted to show off something that she considered to be irrelevant until she was asked moments ago. She's even a little embarrassed and tries to compliment a competitor. This is pouring gas on the fire of hamsters everywhere.

This little clip warms my heart. This is exactly the type of personality I love in girls. There is nothing better than a beautiful woman who knows she's beautiful but doesn't see her beauty to be her primary purpose. I've met only a handful of girls like this in my life. They all believed that a woman should be pretty by default, not as some sort of higher calling. So while they were beautiful, they didn't see their beauty as something special, it was something that just was part of their existence.

It makes me think that there is some Female Hierarchy of Needs, and being pretty is at the foundation. Feminism has largely flipped the pyramid and destroyed the idea that a woman should spend her young adult life making herself beautiful and attractive in both looks and personality. To feminists, this development was not done to benefit the young woman, but to attract a suitor, and therefore lose her independence and subjugate herself in marriage. Instead, young women are taught to concentrate on a career and "finding themselves" through sex, food, and partying. This results in either little or negative development of personality and looks, and since this core female need goes unfulfilled, the higher level of female needs suffer as well.

In some ways, this mirrors the feeling that incels and omegas display toward successful men and players. Incels view sex like feminists view beauty: some rare thing that should be envied, hated and pedestalized. To a man that is sexually fulfilled, it is no big deal, and allows the pursuit of other goals. Hence the rage, because that which the incel really values most but derides (sex) is no big deal to the player, and that which the incel claims to value most (higher pursuits) come naturally with the fulfillment of this need.

She comes from a wealthy Jewish neighborhood here in Montreal. She was raised to do as she is told, and look pretty. And she's seen wealthy Jewish wives - when adopting that attitude, have good success. Having all a woman can truly desire.

If it had been a fat whale asked to show off her outfit, it would've been a win for fat acceptance and 'real women'.

When it's a pretty, young woman, it's sexist and misogynist.

Or if she masturbated with a crucifix, as ramzpaul said

[DrewP]

Technically, this is "sexist." The host would never ask a man to twirl to show off his outfit, therefore he's treating Eugenie differently because she's a woman.

The insanity lies in those who say men and women should be treated identically (but would claim sexual harassment if a guy spoke to them like he does to other men).

[Captain Gh]

If people are offended by that things are going worse then I taught they were! This is just a 2 second spin! I think that I'll skip Australia now
