In almost every thread involving Ronda Rousey, you see nothing but nasty, mean-spirited, misogynistic comments, mostly about her recent weight gain. And frankly, I have had enough of it, and I don't think I'm the only one. If Sherdog actually expects to attract members outside the Cheetoh's eating neckbeard demographic, they have to at least try and maintain some decorum around here. Constructive criticism about her fighting is perfectly okay; calling her names and mocking her body is called body shaming and that's not okay. Toxic masculinity and misogyny is not okay in today's society, even on the Internet. Rousey is a former champion and an MMA pioneer, and to me that makes her worthy of our respect. Sorry if this came across as a lecture, but I had to get it off my chest, because I've been increasingly seeing more and more of this behavior on the forum.
