Hey now that's unfair, I posted an honest opinion. I didn't start an argument. The last girl even said that they made this video to show that pretty girls ride. I believe that one of the other girls mentioned something about the perception of female racers as "manly"...or not wearing makeup ... I don't know, I have a hard time paying attention when women are talking....:lol:

Fine, retracted. You are most certainly allowed to have your opinions, please continue doing so.

Thank you! You are unexpectedly reasonable considering that you are 1. a woman, 2. from Texas and 3. a friend of Azoom's....:lol:

Of course, I am just kidding. That would be an example of me trying to start an argument with you.:wink::lol:

I posted it out here only.... I didn't realize it would be controversial
I just though it was a good video.

It's not, I just didn't think before I posted, as usual. I'm sorry female riders but 90% of the female motocross racers that I've ever seen were wildebeest and that's being charitable! FWIW I'm always happy to see more women riders, that's one less that'll want to be on the back of mine!:rockwoot:

The answer to your question is another question: How many penises watch motorcross?

True! Besides, it works the same for the men. Ugly champions, less ads. How many ads were there when Colin Edwards won the WSBK title? Ben Spies-tons! :lol: A number of years ago, there was an Italian kid that won the Moto2 championship. He was OMFG ugly!!! Jacked up teeth, acne everywhere, greasy looking hair, etc. It was like a troll left his cave to race motocross! Very few ads and those had him on the bike wearing a hemet!:lol: How many ads had Ricky Carmichael's face in them? James Stewart is getting his own show and you still can't pick up a MX rag without seeing Travis Pastrana's mug in it!

For girls it's more important. Guys are the target audience for motorcycle racing. The are the majority audience that watches it. Guys don't care if other guys are hot. They will still watch the races. For girls, guys aren't going to watch them just for the racing.

Boy that's for sure in most cases! It's been debated to death but I will never understand why women aren't out killing it in motorcycle racing. They seem physically perfect for it!:idk:

They don't have the same opportunities and equipment as the high caliber men.
