"AIBA asked boxers to trial the skirts, which they said would allow spectators to distinguish them from men"

Earnestly, I'd say one of the bigger problems is the people who have this problem ^

I was having a lousy day then I read this.

This is really hilarious.

Remember that this may be due to some more conservative countries demanding that females wear skirts.

Gelzo

I don't know that those countries would care much for women boxing at all.

Chagen,
Remember that this may be due to some more conservative countries demanding that females wear skirts.

I guess that might be true, but I would think most of those countries would tend to have just as big of a problem (if not more of one) with women wearing mini-skirts than wearing shorts.

Anyway,
