The organizer of the Tokyo Olympic Games, Hiroshi Sasaki, lost his job over a joke about a woman. It is reported by “BBC”.
Sasaki invited 33-year-old Japanese body-positive artist Naomi Watanabe to descend from heaven in a pig costume at the Games' opening ceremony. The man titled the performance itself as Olympig (pig in translation from English – pig, – approx. “Lenta.ru” ). The idea was dubbed as showing disdain for women and the 66-year-old organizer was forced to apologize for the joke. After that, Sasaki was forced to resign.
