...called glamorous. Svelte swimming star Inge DeBruijn is not going to try it. Some of the women - notably the Russians - make a valiant effort at catching the eye of, say, Nike marketing execs, with upswept hair, lipstick and mascara. One Argentinean lifter even had a tiny diamond in her nose. And some of them really are babes. Huge babes. (OK, I saw a couple of hairy armpits, but no moustaches.) But it's to no avail.
