Female Badminton Players Forced to Wear No Pants

In many parts of the world badminton is soon to be the new women’s tennis — at least according the Badminton World Federation, which took the first step toward raising its sport’s profile by requiring female players to wear skirts on the court.

The official outfit policy, which will take will take effect June 1 in time for this summer’s world championships, is “to ensure attractive presentation of badminton,” according to a statement by the Badminton World Federation, the sport’s international governing body.
But athletes and women’s rights organizations are outraged by the rule. Groups from across the globe have come out against mandating hiked hemlines.
Opposition has come from all sides of the political and social spectrum, ranging from British Parliamentary leaders to the conservative Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party. The entire Badminton Asia Confederation has come out against the policy.
“It has never been the intention of the BWF to portray women as sexual objects, and nor is that what we are doing,” said Paisan Rangsikitpho, deputy president of the organization, in a statement on March 4.
Most sports have some form of mandatory dress codes, either for safety reasons, such as shin guards and helmets, or to protect against cheating, such as special suits in swimming. But critics say that this skirts-only policy has no relevance to the play of the game. Instead, they claim, it caters to a very particular western, heterosexual male audience that likes to see women’s long legs.
The role of sexuality is a constant debate in women’s sports, and athletes often have to walk a fine line between showing enough skin to attract sponsors but not becoming so scantily-clad that they lose respect as athletes (think Anna Kournikova).
The debate is further complicated by the fact that badminton is popular in countries with large Muslim populations, including India and Pakistan, where women athletes sometimes face a juggling act between their culture and their sport. Both countries have seen a large surge in women’s sports, including badminton, over the last decade, in part due to the influence of Indian tennis player Sania Mirza.
Some say that badminton’s new policy could make it more difficult for women athletes in Muslim countries to reconcile religion, culture and sport.

Hey girl, are you date-worthy?

Confused why Mr Right drifts apart from you just when you were hoping he is about to pop the question? Do you sound even a tad like these universally dreaded women listed below, who lose their date-worthiness due to their irritating habits? Read on and see if it is time for change.

Miss Baggage
She tells you it’s all over between her and her ex, you saw her cleanse her cell, mail box, house of everything that could remind her of him. You gave her enough time and a shoulder to cry on until it ached. You were confident she’s completely gotten over her past when you proposed. And yet, she can’t help diving back into her past, if only to talk about how hurt she felt when he fractured his knee. Your irritation and doubt is understandable when she repeatedly turns gloomy listening to a sad romantic number. “In her mind, she is comparing you with her ex. The relationship will sustain only if you are better that than guy,” says Madan. 

The Manly gal
She thinks it’s cool to act like a guy, use nasty abuses, and mocks women who seem ‘ladylike’. She makes sure she never lets you carry her luggage, open a door for her, pay her bills or pull a chair. If you suggest you want to come along as she leaves for a late night assignment, she tells you it’s an outdated idea. There’s nothing wrong if a woman is utterly independent, but don’t complain if romance feels like a deflated tyre. “She is dominating by nature and will be happy with someone effeminate, who would always tow her line,” says Dr Vohra.

The High Maintenance Babe
Her self-worth doubles in her own eyes with each Gucci, Prada and D&G that comes under her possession. She gives you a disgusted look if you ever take her to Mc Donalds as only fancy restaurants in the fanciest five star hotels make her happy. Pray for your safety if you happen to suggest a quick bread omelet from a roadside dhaba. Her swooning over your NRI friend’s Lamborghini is capable of making your loyal Honda City feel like a khatara auto. “Luxury is her weakness. She won’t mind graduating to someone with a fatter bank account,” says relationship expert Jai Madan.

The crybaby
Boss pointing out her folly, neighbour’s cat eloping with a stray tomcat or a joke that wasn’t meant to target her, signal her tear glands to get into action. And if you thought it was a trivial matter to cry upon, you are branded insensitive. “Such women need to grow up mentally. Take the plunge  if you are willing to play ‘Daddy’ all your life,” says  psychiatrist Dr Sandeep Vohra.

The perennial ranter
Her mission in life is to crib and argue about everything that’s unfair. She rants with unrelenting enthusiasm and loves to thrust her views on others. It’s true that corruption, filth, rapists, red tapism etc etc ail our nation, but is it any good talking about it non-stop all the time? You may have happily accompanied her to the Anna Hazare demos but tell us, how would you feel if you discovered she is thinking about the Jaitapur agitation while you’re making love? “She is looking for a perfect world. Meeting her parameters may be tough,” says Dr Vohra.
