It is the goddamn 2012 Olympics and women are taking over!

Sarah Attar, one of two first Saudi badass Olympians. 

This is the first Olympics where there is a female competitor from EVERY COUNTRY and that's a reason enough for me to watch it. It made me wish that my parents had forced me into committing to sports even though I was a quitter and exceptionally inflexible.

I also noticed how misogynist the Olympics were and how much criticism and offensive, purely sexist comments women athletes receive because oh you know... They're women and it's not that easy to look past their vaginas, right?

Destinee Hooker,  women's US indoor volleyball. Werk it!

This is also the first year the women's beach volleyball teams were allowed to wear something other than a bikini? Disgusting! Why was this ever a rule?

Faye Sultan, Kuwait's first female swimmer. You go, girl!

People of my country were flipping out over the Faye Sultan interview video because she was wearing a two piece bathing suit but get this... The two fully covered Saudi girls were also called names, some even claimed should be disowned them from their country? This is the hell hole we live in.

Zoe Smith, 18 year old British weightlifter + my queen!

Another female competitor Zoe smith, was harassed on Twitter for her masculine physical appearance, check out the article here. In which Zoe replied: "This may be shocking to you, but we actually would rather be attractive to people who aren’t closed-minded and ignorant. Crazy, eh?! We, as any woman with an ounce of self-confidence would, prefer our men to be confident enough in themselves to not feel emasculated by the fact that we aren’t weak and feeble." 

Can we just not sit and reduce these beautiful, smart, talented, incredibly strong women to nothing but something that does not please you aesthetically and curse them for not matching your own personal preferences? Can we just thoroughly respect and admire their dedication and abilities.

I was so amazed and blown away watching the women weightlifting competitors and wondered what there was out there in the world that I would be willing to work as hard for as they do, and it's... NOTHING, unless the internet becomes an Olympic sport or something.
