I don't know. The ban is a bit harsh, but I've always been sceptical of grid girls. They're just like those models in car shows: they have no good reason for being there.

The same can be said of most instagram celebrities though (I've seen instagram models promote the weirdest shit in bikini pictures). Some modern feminists are actually trying to limit female freedom of choice, by banning things they consider misogynistic, it's kind of a paradox, really.

I don't care for scantily clad girls at car shows or sport events myself, I don't understand the point of cheerleaders either, but removing the possibility altogether seems drastic to me.

But this isn't a ban from some higher authority. This is the tournament organizers themselves stopping the practice. It's not a law that has been lobbied through by feminists or whatever.
