You clearly value top performing women athletes over TdF podium girls.* Are you sure that one path is better for all women? Is being a lawyer better than being a business woman? Is being a singer better than being an actress?

Why can't women choose their own path without the interference of you and your ideas about what is a good role for women?

Each career path has it's dark side. Instead of being judgey about women and the paths they choose, why not work to shine light on doping, eating disorders, and other measurable problems?

I don't see a good underlying principle to support eliminating the TdF podium girls. My position is that women should have the opportunity to freely pursue whatever career they want.

*I'm no historian, but it seems to me that not long ago women were shamed for choosing athletics over being pretty. Now we shame them for choosing to be pretty over athletics. We've come a long way.
