| The Australian Sports Party, which according to its website is a new micro-party platform in Western Australia that is "is focused on helping Australians live a healthy well-balanced lifestyle through sport," has come under fire for using topless women as part of its election campaign on Facebook.
The image, which is as offensive as it is unoriginal, is sadly just the kind of lame, sexist diatribe women in sport have to put up with all the time (remember the Ellyse Perry meme of recent months? And any time a woman is praised for her looks or has to strip down to her knickers to get the same kind of coverage as a man in the same sport? Or how women's sport simply doesn't receive the same kind of funding or respect as men's? Yeah).
