Wu Yanni is one of China's most well known track and field athletes, specializing in the 100 meter hurdles. Born in Sichuan Province in 1997, she has won multiple national titles and set some of the fastest hurdle times ever recorded by a Chinese woman. Her performances on the track have earned her widespread recognition, but she has also become a frequent topic of discussion for reasons unrelated to her athletic achievements. Unlike many athletes, Wu often competes wearing makeup, has visible tattoos, and embraces a confident public image, making her stand out in a sport where athletes are often expected to maintain a more traditional appearance. Her style has attracted criticism from some people who believe athletes should focus solely on competition and avoid drawing attention to their appearance. Wu has pushed back against those views, arguing that wearing makeup and expressing her personality do not affect her performance. She has said that makeup gives her confidence and helps her feel her best when competing. Supporters praise her for challenging stereotypes and showing that athletes can be both competitive and expressive, while critics continue to debate her image. Despite the controversy, Wu remains one of the most recognizable figures in Chinese athletics and continues to be known for both her results and her individuality.

People just hate women I guess…
People will hate you for being ugly and people will hate you for being pretty. You genuinely cannot win as a woman.
it’s not her fault that she has a lethal face card
"You can't wear makeup and look pretty for a sport!" Wushu athletes: ;-; ?
so many male athletes get away with SA allegations and even proven cases but god forbid a female athlete wears makeup😂
people forget that a ''critic'' isnt some important authority figure or some expert or whatever, a critic is literally anyone, thats one of the ways media misrepresents, by saying critics when they just mean a bunch of worthless idiots on twitter
I think every woman can relate to being told that they're too much. Too loud, too quiet, too pretty, too ugly, too skinny, too fat, too strong, too weak, too fast, too slow, too skilled, too unskilled, too confident, too meek, too visible, too reserved, too bossy, too opinionated, too smart, too public, too private, too modest, too sexy. BUT NEVER too young, or too innocent, or worthy of being protected. Edit to add: MEN, This isn't about you! Not everything is about you! Women are allowed to discuss their experiences without the input of men telling them that they're wrong or overreacting or that it's misandry to discuss the experiences of women. If you feel called out by what I'm saying, maybe you should look in the mirror before blaming women. You're literally proving my point for me!
There’s nothing wrong with confidence in sports! It only makes you perform even better
They're obviously jealous 😩
She is such a beauty
If the hater spent as much time working out as hating they would be pretty too ,
And yet they would mock her for being masculine ☠️
She didn't wear any makeup at the start of career but when started winning and getting brand endorsements , she saw the opportunity and went for it, wearing make-up is her way of getting more brands and it worked
Same people to hate on female athletes that they find ugly by the way…😒
They criticize women when they look too pretty and criticize when they don't look pretty, they criticize when they look too feminine and also when they look masculine, they hate women when they take good care of themselves ,they hate when she doesn't take care of herself...instead of running after validation from such hypocrites let's just be ourselves. Don't let anyone dictate what you do what you wear and how you look.
ppl will hate on women for anything atp
