30 very important reasons male gymnasts should compete shirtless
Instagram (@rayancastro_; @arthurnory; @brody1700)
We love watching men's gymnastics in the Olympics, but we can't help but think of a couple ways to improve the sport.
Our first big idea is the uniforms. Obviously, we love the way the uniforms hug a gymnast's muslces, but couldn't it do more (or technically less) than that? We propose that from now on, male gymnasts should compete shirtless in all international and national competitions.
For sports reasons.
Scroll through to see some of our favorite male Olympic gymnast (both LGBTQ+ and straight) to see just why we think shirtless competitions would be a gold medal-winning idea!
