Athletes rep Bob Chirichello kommentoi naiskehonrakennusta:
"It has never been viable. Year after year, womens bodybuilding has consistently lost money. One year, the MS> Olympia sold 38 tickets... 38! So the fans have spoken: from a business perspective, it doesnt make sense, because it doesnt survive; nor can it survive.
"Its a niche market, say its advocates. No, mens bodybuilding has its niche market; womens bodybuilding has no market; what little market it has is made up of schmoes and fetishists. Womens bodybuilding is an oxymoron. Nothing in the term or the concept matches up. Beautiful, sexy and muscular do not make a harmonious package. Notice the hopeless desperate trend: when womens bodybuilding became bestial and alienated all interest, womens fitness had to be created to fill the gap. When that became too muscular and abandoned its audience, it had to be replaced with figure. Whats next, bikini contests? "There is something to be said when Ms. Olympia herself, Lenda Murray - a lovely feminine lady - drops out of the sport because it has become ugl. Sure, they train hard, but they should be trying to become better women, not better men. End it, once and for all. Its dragging down the entire sport."
