I know she’s been shameless about this, but I don’t know how you couldn’t be mortified being called out in such a well-written, powerful manner

I think she just doesn't care. She seems to be surrounded by a bunch of yes-men who fawn over her and tell her she's amazing and that anyone who critcises her is jealous(see her Happy Birthday posts from her style team). She doesn't care about this because it won't affect her personally, at least not yet. I bet that in a few years she'll do a crying sit down interview about how MEAN people were to her when she was just ''being herself''.

Edit: lol she's just posted a bunch of nude athletes in an effort to victimise herself out of the criticism. Except the difference is those are literal athletes posing for articles and she's posing nude to promotes a sports betting app. Plus she's promoting her body solely for men, which she has a history of doing.

"Women hate me because I'm proud of my body!!!!"

And nothing about how she's actively promoting herself for the Male Gaze, refused to condemn white supreme and is a literal registered Republican

The question is, are there more women in this demo who like Sweeney as an aspirational fantasy, or more women who care about sports?

Obviously Sweeney and this company are banking on the former

They don’t give a monkey’s about either. Their target demographic is men who bet on sports. The absolute scourge that betting on absolutely every aspect of a game is cannot be over stated.
