Super Sexy Sprinter!!!

NOW THIS IS A BIG SHOUT OUT TO ALL MY FEMALE ATHLETES!!! i've had enough... Why am i being called Hench day in and day out... or a tom boy... or just being criticised for something that is keeping my body in check and oh so on point!!!

Guys complain when the girls are waste gash and then also have the cheek to complain when they are hard working and busy... WE.... ACTUALLY NO, I CANT WIN!!!

So tell me? is it because im a successful representative of
women in sport working hard at uni and driven towards a media career, in
television and radio.

Do i intimidate you???
I strongly believe that all of us women should get more support from you men, we're just trying to make the best of ourselves instead of being criticised for stereotypical mistakes!!!

Even this year we saw one of the biggest knock backs for women in sport, and it happened to young South African Caster Semenya. She was accused of being a MAN!!!! can you imagine... you know why, this was because she was doing well for herself. She improved by 11 seconds in her event 800m and they believed this was suspicious!!!! This actually disgusts me that a female athlete who is appearing to be improving or doing well must be either on drugs or is a man?

Like i said before what happened to supporting women?

Ironically in this case the suspcious may not just be melacious rumours and a vicious breach of her human rights as Semenya may in fact be a hemaphrodite which is even more devastating for a young athlete who now faces having her gold medal revoked and unable to ever compete competitively again. She's only 18 isn't life stressful enough for us women without having our femininity stripped away from us because we shouldn't be able to run quickly...

I hope things work out for Semenya and i will try my very best to follow her story and support her!!!

As us women at team here i am representing women in sport for nike women i say to you all HAVE A STRONG DAY!!!
