Why do beach volleyball players wear such revealing outfits?

They don't have the freedom to choose any other outfit - so they either wear what is approved for them or nothing at all... and they won't be allowed to compete naked.

@HootyTheNightOwl What is the reasoning for making it a rule for them to wear this?
@jherind183 If you were male or lesbian... wouldn't you be aroused by this???

Sadly, women are typically seen as sex objects in modern day sports because there's a greater chance that men might tune in more to see near naked women rather than because they appreciate a good game of, let's say tennis.

Many sports featured in the Olympics were sadly not given the attention that they deserved in schools when I attended - so people don't even understand the rules of the sport, much less play as a form of exercise or compete in amateur competitions, never mind playing professionally and being selected to represent anyone in the Olympics.

With that in mind... how else do you get large swathes of people to watch something that they know nothing about???

@HootyTheNightOwl What are they aroused by… the bellies? Lol
@jherind183 You can virtually see their nipples in that... you don't need that much imagination.
