The head of the organizing committee of the Games in Tokyo criticized women and was at the center of the scandal

Yoshiro Mori

The head of the Tokyo 2020 organizing committee and former Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori spoke negatively about women in sports committees and federations and found himself at the center of a scandal. Reported by The New York Times.

Thus, Mori pointed out that the increase in the number of women in these structures leads to the fact that meetings take much longer, since women speak for a long time and each of them considers it necessary to say something. In particular, the head of the organizing committee cited the example of the Japan Rugby Federation, whose meetings began to run twice as long due to the increased number of women in its composition.
