Ngesonto eledlule u-Simone Biles, oyilungu eliwusayizi omncane weThimba Le-Fierce Five US Women's Gymnastics, uthumele isithombe ku-Twitter ekhombisa umehluko wobude obuqatha phakathi kwefreyimu yakhe eyi-4-foot-8 kanye nesiqu esiphezulu esingamafidi angu-6 nesishiyagalombili. womunye umdlali we-Olimpiki, umdlali we-volleyball uDavid Lee, okujabulisa kakhulu i-Intanethi.

Isithombe siyahlekisa, kepha amaBiles enza iphuzu elikhulu kakhulu: ayikho into efana nohlobo lomzimba "lwezemidlalo". (Uma kwenzeka uzibuza, Uhlobo lwe- "Yoga Body" Stereotype nalo luyi-BS.) Njengoba ubuka abagijimi abakhulu emhlabeni eRio bencintisana ngokuthola indawo endaweni yesikhulumi, bephenya ibhola lasolwandle ukulandela umkhondo, babuyela kuma-gymnastics, bese babhukuda , uzobona ngokushesha ukuthi ayikho indlela yokuqhathanisa umzimba womunye umgijimi nomunye. Ukuhambisa leli phuzu ekhaya, inkampani yezemidlalo iRowing Reviews yahlaziya ukuphakama, izinsimbi, kanye nama-BMIs angaphezu kwama-10 000 ama-Olimpiki ukubona ukuthi ahlangana kanjani.

Njengoba kungenzeka uqagele kuhlaka oluncane lwe-Biles, olunemisipha, abavocavoca bavame ukuba phakathi kwabasubathi abafishane nabalula kunabo bonke-abavocavoca abajwayelekile banesisindo esingamakhilogremu angu-117 futhi bamamitha angu-5 amayintshi angu-4. Ngakolunye uhlangothi lwe-spectrum, ukudubula kwabesifazane kubeka abasubathi, abane-BMI emaphakathi engu-30.6 (Lokhu empeleni kubenza bafaneleke ngokuthi "bakhuluphele") iwashi elingu-5 amafidi amayintshi angu-10 ubude, linesisindo esingamaphawundi angu-214. Ithimba LaseMelika Lokuntywila Okwamanje lingamamitha ama-5 amayintshi ama-3 namakhilogremu ayi-117, ngokwesilinganiso. Abadlali be-badass beach volleyball ongababuka eCopacabana Beach bangamamitha ayisithupha ubude namakhilogremu ayi-154. Ngamanye amagama, ayikho into efana nokuthi "ejwayelekile" uma kukhulunywa ngama-bods alungele kahle.

Kithina nje abantu abafayo abangewona ama-Olympic, kuyasiza ukukhumbula ukuthi alukho uhlobo lomzimba olufanele, ngaphakathi noma ngaphandle kwezwe lezemidlalo. Akunandaba ukuthi umi kanjani, sifuna ukuthi ungene emdlalweni.
