1. Because female representation should amount to more than eye candy and the same culture which doesn't care to address this encourages the piss poor treatement of woman who deal with daily street harrasment, inappropriate comments at the workplace, sexual harrasment in all stages of life from men who feel entitled, and complete abuses of power as seen in the Harvey Weinstein exposè. 2. Its almost as if people are ignoring the fact we are a product of our environment and shaping our environment influences how the future generation grow and treat each other. If the market demands a return of the Grid girls I'm sure we'll see them in some form or another, I don't think they do...

3. And thats just one angle, they could want to make it more family friendly but I'll repeat my closing line again "it's about the culture you want the sport to represent and encourage that is far bigger and generational then the jobs they loose, but also less a tangible subject."

4. And its not even that I think that this is a must or believe it will definitely make a difference, but lets not over simply the thinking to crazy feminists ruining things. 

1. Female representation should hit all areas where female representation can take place. You are going off on a tangent about the culture not addressing this but excuse me I'm pretty sure females are highly represented in everything they work hard towards. Women aren't fragile little things, I think they can make their won decisions.

2. Yes!!! We are a product of our environment, and the fact that these women on the panel have showcased they are business women as well who have made it with hard work goes against the very point you are spewing. These women have good working conditions but you are coming up with shit from other cases and applying those here which is particularly odd and sounds like confirmation bias to me.

3. We live in a culture that throws sex offenders in prison (once proven guilty, of course). I mean, lol, we live in a culture where men only have to be accused and they lose their kids and their jobs.

4. ....What difference would this make when you have industries that treat women under the spotlight far worse than the innocent case here? Go advocate over in those sectors...what are you doing here? Are you just pretending or are you just ignorant of the ACTUAL issues?
