Stick to being a ring girl
Dana White, UFC founder, once claimed that “women will never fight in the UFC”.
For a long time, the only presence women had in the UFC was as a scantily clad ring girl, signalling to the predominantly male audience which round of the fight was next.
Not only do women fight now, but they also dominate the organisation. The likes of Ronda Rousey, Chris Cyborg, Amanda Nunes and Xiong Jing Nan have ruled the UFC. They have paved the way for other female fighters to be included in the main rosters alongside the male fighters and in some cases be the main event.
However, whilst women are now better respected in their field, seemingly the media does not view them in the same way. When male UFC athletes are portrayed, they appear as professional athletes (good at their sport and superior as athletes). For example, a search of male UFC fighters in the media reviews, a recent news story that describes the athletes as ‘dominant’ and ‘superstars’ who have had ‘more success than anybody else’ in the business. The news story is in admiration of the male athletes sporting prowess.
In contrast, when a search is made of female fighters in the UFC the first title lists MMA fighters by ‘weight class and height’. This example illustrates how female fighters are subject to objectification and how their sporting prowess is often overlooked due to the magnification on their looks and body.
Women are commonly subject to objectification in the media; however, female athletes may have different perspectives on how they are presented. For example while some are opposed to female UFC bodies being exploited, potentially for the sake of the male audience, other female athletes such as Ronda Rousey, have a contrary perspective. When talking about showing off her body in the media, said:
“If I can represent that body type of women that isn’t represented so much in the media, then I’d be happy to do that. When women say that going on publications directed at men is somehow demeaning, I don’t think that’s true. I think that’s on really effective way to change the societal standards women are held to.”
This suggests there may be a positive dimension to female UFC fighters’ bodies being displayed in the media as this can promote different body types to the wider population. Most females shown in high end fashion and other media, such as health magazines typically have one body type that is then idealised for women and by women. This link talks about the body types shown in the majority of the media and the effects that it can have on women, such as, developing eating disorders because they feel as though they should look like the unrealistic body standards shown in the media. Presenting females as athletic and muscular can be positive for the confidence of other women who may not have the typical, idealised body shown in the majority of the media.
As someone who practices martial arts, I have struggled with my body looking more muscular and not feeling as petite as some of my female friends. Representation of strong female fighters in the media personally makes me feel empowered. It is good to celebrate UFC fighters in the media, but the focus shouldn’t solely be on their bodies but also on their success as an athlete. When female bodies are represented in the media it should not be for the gratification of a male audience.
So, this leaves the question of, should we embrace female UFC fighters’ bodies being shown off in the media as this can empower the wider community? Or is there too much opportunity for female UFC fighters sporting prowess to be overlooked due to the focus on their figures?
