While women surfers probably prefer people to appreciate them for their surfing skills, sometimes it’s difficult to ignore more superficial aspects of them because of the sport they’re into, which includes minimal clothing, sun and dripping wet bodies.
Maybe this doesn’t do the greatest service to females who want people to take them more seriously as athletes and professionals. Still, this probably doesn’t hurt or offend anyone, so what’s the harm of looking at some beautiful girls in bathing suits who also happen to be really good when it comes to riding the waves?
