This.
My kid wears a skirt that is too short and I kind of freak out, but that is only because I know how guys are, because until I had this realization, I WAS one of those guys.

Guess what, one day your daughter is going to get all hot and bothered by some guy without his shirt on.
It goes both ways.
They're grown women. (The F&I girls that is)

So my take-away from this thread is that we should all be nude at all times.
Maybe like a little codpiece (sheer fabric of course) just so it doesn't get caught in the car door.

Was talking to a girl at work who went to the Canadiens game in Edmonton the other night. All of a sudden she goes on a rant about how they put the cheerleader girls up on the big screen at center ice and she was disgusted at the exploitation. I lol'd for awhile and then told her, that that is their job, and if she didn't like to ,,,,,look away.

Sure, what some people are saying is that its not the only prerequisite.

The NHL is not sexist in the way it hires players. They hire the best hockey players full stop regardless of appearance or gender.
The correct answer that would pass any test would be to hire the people that are the best at the job regardless of appearance or gender but most jobs hire attractive people over less attractive people given the same skill set. This is a societal issue and the ice girls is not the place to have the fight.

Actually, they could probably fit a small, movable stage like this in front of the Zamboni entrance.

This is true, but you have to remember that often attractive people are also healthier people, so all else being equal, it makes sense to hire someone who clearly takes care of themselves over someone who doesn't seem to care. It's not a guarantee, but it helps your chances.

What's also funny is, the Vikings were in a timeout and then had to go on a drive up the field from there to kick a fg to send the game to OT.
Talk about distracting.

That's not what it's about, it's about ethics in game journalism.
