Picturing Hope Solo
Hope Solo survived her fifth week on Dancing with the Stars. I'm glad: she is a smart,
outspoken athlete and the challenge of that program requires that she confront the different ways
by which her image, as a woman, is regulated. I, for one, am glad she's willing to do so
publicly.
As I've mentioned in previous posts, some USWNT fans hate the way DWTS treats Solo: Judges
complained for weeks about how unfeminine her movements are, and every week they cite her physical
strength as a weakness.
