Why is that? It's because she's a woman in public. She dresses up for her sideline interviews and gets criticized. But if she wore an NYCFC jersey, Levis, and no makeup she'd get criticized just as much if not more. And nobody ever seems to care about Joe Tolleson's outfit for some reason.But it seems like it's a different story when Alex gets trashed shortly after seemingly leaving the club. Genuine question - why is that?
This sort of thing happens to women all the time. It's not normal, and it's not "just how things are in our culture." And speaking as a man I'm sure I don't even know the half of it.
In an effort to avoid the thousand word essay I'll just say that men, if you don't want have your entire character judged based on the shoes you chose to wear to the match then perhaps women don't want to be judged that way either. And now lather/rinse/repeat with everything in your entire life you might think of saying to or about a woman.
And heck, maybe don't even say anything and just listen instead. Who knows what might happen?
