I wish we respected women's talent more

The half time show was very good. Beyonce was fantastic, her dancing on the same field that the players are having problems with in high heels was impressive. But comparing the costumes of the men to that of the women was disheartening. Men get to dress in comfortable, flattering, and decent clothes. The women not so much. It would be nice for there to be more equality in this regard.

and she shouldn't feel the need to wear the costume she was wearing tonight. She did look amazing though, to be honest. Not my cup of tea mind you, I am purely into guys but she is a great looking lady to be sure.

Are you suggesting that Beyonce isn't respected? How many Grammys has she won now?
