The threads here, especially the WNBR ones, are overwhelmingly positive. They typically celebrate the women involved for their beauty and their bravery. The rare derogatory comments either get instantly deleted, or put in their rightful place.

Now, I realize many people don't approve of sexualizing the naked female body, which does go on here, but that's a whole other thing than "talking in derogatory terms." And to that argument, I'd just suggest they pay attention to the last couple thousand years of art history, or maybe even just read the bawdy slogans the riders paint on their bodies. You can't have it both ways (or more correctly, you can try, but you're just making yourself sound ridiculous).
Well said.
