The bottom line is this was a private event on private land, you had to have a ticket or a registration form or you couldn't get in. [.....]
And I'm actually quite glad there weren't hordes of Asian men pointing huge lenses at peoples' vaginas.
I wish they figured out something like this for the starting and finish areas of the London WNBR.
(off course i also like sometimes the close ups, like for instance Irishboys ones, but that doesn't mean you need hunderds, thousands (Asian) photographers for it which also reject woman to participate)
