Did Anna Meares really say the Raygun reaction is misogynistic? jeezus does anyone remember laughter
There's been some interesting discussion on Reddit about how she actually came to be the one to represent Australia/Oceania in this event.
She held a privileged position due to her involvement with the dance sport organisation.
Her Phd research was based on the societal aspects of breakdancing culture, in particular its link to lower socio-economic groups using it as a form of expression that required no money, or eduction or privilege to engage in, and be good at.
She 'won' the right to compete by beating only a handful of other dancers in the qualifying competition. (Some reports say that there were only 15 competitors in the Qualifying comp)
So we have a middle-aged white woman, representing a colonialist country, who has 'studied' this urban sub-culture, presumably enough to know its roots and its meaning, who then decides that she is to be the one to represent it on the global stage. Unintentionally making a mockery of the whole sub-culture with her 'interpretation' of it in such a tone-deaf manner.
And now she/her supporters are all crying misogyny with the critical feedback she's received on her performance.
Anna Meares even coming out and saying that she's fantastic and everyone loves her feels like a smokescreen.
Her lame attempts at doing the 'diss' moves on the stage were utterly cringe and made her look way worse than just her routine.
I will give her this though, I haven't laughed so much at something so ridiculous in a very long time.
I give her gold for that.
Edit: just realised which thread this was in. Sorry mods. Probably best suited to the Random Thoughts Thread.
The rest of the world may be having a huge laugh at Australia's expense, but maybe it's us who's mocking this silly event, sending daggy mum Raygun, and apparently our b-boy has an incredibly small penis - how pisstakey is that?
How did we come to know our male breaker has a tiny dong?
The French guy who was 'battling' against him mimicked pulling his pants down and made the 'small penis' sign with his hand. Considering the kid was only 16 it was pretty weird.
The worm is a legitimate break dancing move, all the kids at the school disco at the footy club said soAt least young J-Attack did actual breakdancing, instead of the worm
Anyone know where Jessica Hull is right now?
Just saw something calling her Napoleon Vegemite and I think we’re done now.It's absolutely fantastic meme material and she needs to lean into it not take herself seriously
Also get ready for her to be plastered all over everything for the next two months. Move over hawk tuah, it's time for the next distraction to overstay their welcome
