Twinkle Khanna's war on misogny and nipples! - Page 6

No, I wouldn't and there isn't a gym that I have worked out at that wouldn't have laughed me off the premise unless he was jacking off in the room, making lewd gestures or harassing me. It is unreasonable to expect him to take a time out as though he's a child or leave the premise if he isn't threatening or harassing me, all because he got a boner for who knows what reason. There is nothing "wanton" about having a boner while working out and likewise, nothing wanton about nipples hardening while working out.

Like I said earlier, people can be offended till the cows come home but you can't impose your sensibilities on her; that is sexist. You feel women's nipples should be adequately covered to your liking when women are working out or wherever. Good for you but it does not become women's responsibility to cater to your sensibility.

See this is exactly what I'm talking about. Now she is a black woman. First it was because she is a woman. While the issue was never sexist but simple a matter of one's attire. Andy Murray didn't face flack because probably he doesn't usually wear a bra. But women do. Now we can complain why he doesn't wear one but this is how it has been. He also happens not to breastfeed from them. But I get it this is another cause for equality. It is also about entitlement.

But sadly for twinkle she takes part in the same regressive practices that she seems to be speaking about. After all women's breasts and nipples are no big deal. It is just like men. Just like Andy Murray. Change begins at home. I look forward to Twinkle revolting against it.

I said black because out of all tennis players, she has been continuously been ridiculed the most for her appearance.

Its not about nipples, it about preferring NIPPLES over HER ACHIEVEMENTS! Talking about the former and not latter...

And attitude towards it.

Why is Varun's junk(on purpose) a joke, with people laughing it off WHILE a Leading Actress accidental nipple show make people call her a s**t, wh**e..

I wouldn't usually comment on another woman's body, but could someone give Serena Williams something to cover her nipples...very distracting

With all the money Serena Williams earns, why can't she buy a decent sports bra which covers her nipples properly

it turns out andy murray's nipples weren't distracting from the match but serena's nipples were a distraction

Post got detailed

She is pointing how women (here a Black woman in specific) tend to face certain amount of scrutiny for the way they appear and not for their work. Despite winning a match, being at top of her field she is being discussed not for her achievements but for her body or for her nipples. Yes it's a norm, it brings hits and TRPs but its UNETHICAL and it needs to be changed. Its media and such ignorants because of which people have an image of Serena being sex machine making sounds of moaning and lady with huge boobs rather than a successful tennis player.

Andy Murray winner of Wimbledon Men Singles, didn't face anything of same. (His nipples were visible as well) That's what Twinkle is pointing, there are thousands of pics of Paes out there but never have they been talked of. Even if media outlet thinks of reporting these, people are gonna buzz the issue off and laugh upon it the way they did with Varun's junk. They never gonna be bashed for considered a hurdle in match they are PART OF!
