Aw, someone is having a bitter day in the basement. Looks like Mommy told him he had to get a job.

Of course she is. Just because you can’t see ‘naughty’ bits doesn’t mean she’s not nude.

Let’s hope **shunpiker** never discovers the “Bodies” issue of _ESPN_ magazine. It would be like that one scene in “Scanners”.

She posed for ESPNW, very much nude but not revealing anything, like 18 months ago.

Spoilered, just in case:

[How Gymnast Aly Raisman Got That Body](http://www.espn.com/espnw/athletes-life/article/13422652/how-gymnast-aly-raisman-got-body)

She’s worked hard for that body. If she wants to show it off, she should. If you think less of her because of that, you’re the one with the problem.

\*\*Van \*\*Diesel? Who the fuck is that?

And seriously, her toes? Who gives a shit about her toes? Is this a fetish of yours because you had to rub lotion on your mommy’s toes when you were a kid, because of all those hours she spent walking the streets and taking it up the ass for enough rubles to buy a pot of beets? Sad!

She definately does not look manish. She is a lovely young woman.  
Gymnast feet shouldn’t be any grosser than any bodies feet. Pointe dancers, now they have some gimped up feet.  
I hope she has a fruitful life.  
I for one will not judge her decisions, because guess what? It’s not my life!!

And yet, she has her photos plastered all over the internet and everywhere else. She gives interviews and is known the world over. And you… well, you’re just some little shitbag with an internet connection. Better run along now and clean up the basement before mommy gets home from doing her rounds. She might make you prepare her ass-cleansing enema before she gives you your allowance.

And he was so close to being able to buy that pickled turnip from the market stall. What happened to you, Russia? You used to be cool.

Being sexual or displaying sexuality is fine. Being sexually assaulted is not. I’m not sure how that’s confusing or sending mixed messages.

I took a look at some of the “nude” photos. She looks fine but not sexually arousing to me. Genie Bouchard on the other hand was a revelation to my private parts.

I bet that slut is naked under all her clothes too! [/sarcasm]

Oh for god’s sake!  
Are we actually turning this into a bloody rating game?

Just … shit …  
CONTEXT, man! BLOODY, FUCKING, CONTEXT!

You read the thread and thought you’d just pop in to tell us she’s not your type.  
The mind boggles.

I have absolutely no problem with Raisman’s photo shoot. She’s an adult human being with agency. It’s her life, her body, her choice, and the opinions of others shouldn’t matter. But can someone explain one thing to me?

_WTF does this have to do with **swimsuits??** _ These pix are in the SI _swimsuit issue_, right? What am I missing here?

Yeah! Why aren’t there just pictures of swimsuits? What are those chicks doing there anyway?
