‘Pile of Sh**’: Paige Spiranac Slams Gender Shaming With a Powerful Take Using Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, and Several Others Athletes To Prove Her Case

The professional golfer turned golf influencer, Paige Spiranac has been subjected to online hatred plenty of times. Mostly, people accuse her of over se*ualising herself and thus setting a bad example. However, the 29-year-old has always said that she started her current career to support women. 

“There’s been a ton of discussion around female athletes and showing off their bodies,” Spiranac said in her latest video. Usually, the former golfer would post either entertaining or sports events-related videos on her Twitter page. However, she used the platform to discuss a rather serious topic this time. 

According to her, people are accusing female athletes for over se*ualizing women when they show off their bodies in any way. They also tend to say that “no one will take them (women) seriously” if they wear any type of revealing clothes. “And I think it is a big stinking pile of sh**,” she added. 

Paige Spiranac found out what’s common between the highest-paid top 4 female athletes

Spiranac named the top four highest-paid athletes on Forbes’ list in her video. And they are the tennis stars Naomi Osaka, Serena Williams, Venus Williams, and the American gymnast Simone Biles. 

Notably, the 1-time Cactus Tour winner revealed that these four women have a lot in common. According to her, the top 4 highest-paid athletes on Forbes’ list are “athletic bad a**es.” She also added that how all four of them are successful entrepreneurs, apart from being great athletes. 

However, none of them was the most common thing about all four of them. “They all posed for Sports Illustrated in a swimsuit,” she added. “Women… they can actually do it all.”

Spiranac expressed her hatred towards people, who accuse female athletes of over se*alization if they pose for a magazine cover or similar photoshoot.  

Has a male celebrity athlete ever posed for a magazine in ‘unconventional’ clothes? 

The former golfer revealed that no one thinks male athletes would “over se*ulaize” themselves for monetary gain. However, almost every male celebrity athlete has posed for magazines or advertisements, exposing their bodies.

To prove her point, Spiranac added some of their pictures at the end of the video. Her video showed athletes like David Beckham, Tom Brady, Cristiano Ronaldo, Michael Phelps, Michael Jordan, and Rory McIlroy. 

Notably, Paige Spiranac has recently been on the cover of Maxim Magazine in her swimsuit. She was also named their Sexiest Woman Alive in 2022. 

When female athletes show off their bodies, society calls them names. Meanwhile, similar photos of male athletes don’t get the same response. Spiranac expressed her viewpoints on this topic through her latest video. Do you think that such gender discrimination is still in the sports world?
