George can say what he wants - is he calling attention to his site, but not here. This will be the only thread on it and his site. Now as for George and myself, I have been debating him via email, and even invited him to air his views, but he declined. That is his opinion. Truth is, female bodybuilding, which the extent that is has gone, had created a major problem for the sport. No one wants to sponsor a female bodybuilding show in the state it is in. Without sponsorship money, there is no contest. We have seen this by the lack of pro shows, by the lack of excitement, and by the rise in what I call creatine discussions, even resorting to malicious bashing, of female bodybuilder going over the edge, as we all say it.
Funny thing is, the problem stem not by many in our industry agreeing with me and others, but by how you say it. 95% of the people agree that female bodybuilding needs help fast, that the judges and the competitors need to the judged by symmetry and physique, not my muscularity.
Now, I am not against female bodybuilding at all, in fact, if we can get back to the golden ages, it would be great. My favorite competitor who is coming back to compete is Cathy LeFrancois. She looked just great at the Arnold Classic when she won the lightweight division, not too much muscularity, her face was nice and people raved about her appearance.
However, malicious bashing is over with, even on female bodybuilders. But I have talked to a lot of them, and they want things to be changed, but are at a loss on how to change it.
If there were enough female bodybuilders who really wanted to try and change something, some ways, perhaps something can be done. But there isn't. They are all afraid to speak up when the time comes. How many motions at an IFBB meeting. Zero? Zero! No one bothered to try and change something.
If female bodybuilding wants a voice, email me. Get a female bodybuidler to mod a board, post positive issues, debate the issues, and give some positive into the life of a female bodybuilder. I would be more than willing to help. But it is work...
As for George - can't he get along with anyone?
