      +Jenn Wang...I don't think it's sexist. That's like suggesting there is something wrong with being a housewife. There is nothing wrong with being a housewife. I'm not one myself but I don't understand the issue with those who are. I don't that is derogatory. There are far worse things she could have been called in the 1940s.

      "The Flying Housewife." She ironically cleaned house at the games that year.

      That was her nickname because she already had two kids and competed while she was 3 months pregnant of her third child. ;)

    This is such great footage, also what's makes it even greater for that time that she was a mom already.. What a champ! Interesting to see btw that there were no black athletes back then? Not that I have anything against them but now it's the opposite.. You barely see a white runner anymore haha.

    • @lisacox3750
      @lisacox3750 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      +Livelifelaugh...well the best of the best are picked to represent their countries. Back then many countries with people of color were not invited to be apart of the Olympics. Who is to say if things would have been different if they were. Anyway... once more countries with people of color were invited to participate naturally it changed the type of runners you would see.

    • @kittyviveen9448
      @kittyviveen9448 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      No she wasn't pregnant at the time, but she already had 2 children. I come from the Netherland and although this was in 1948, the first Olympics after the war, she is still know and well loved by everyone. She is truly one of the greatest Olympic athletes. And she still holds the record of 4 gold in track and field. Not even Florence Griffith could do that. Imagine that - since 1948 this record still stands. When she came home to Amsterdam after the Olympics the city gave her a present. It was a brand new bicycle. Gosh, times have changed…..

    There is so much more to Fanny Blankers-Koen and a Music Video with play by play doesn't do it justice....extremely disappointed in this video.
