Re: Utah twins launch sticky note protest of swimsuit issue
I weary of censorship. No need to look if you find it offensive. Those gals could use some sticky notes, themselves.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

Funny. When I read the thread title, I more than half expected the 'twins' would be DCP and Hambone.

I personally think that publications like Sports Illustrated Swim Suit edition objectify women, and to me that it wrong many levels. Because of this, I don't buy the magazine. Problem solved. I will not push my opinion on others, and will thank others for the same courtesy.
Little good usually comes from this type of moral grandstanding. It usually just pisses people off.

I know of a better way to deal with this: watch men's Olympic swimming. Those guys are really hot- nipples and all.

first of all, what censorship?
second, can you not see how media can affect people's lives even if they chose not to consume it?

Re: Utah twins launch sticky note protest of swimsuit issue
An issue featuring sticky notes rather than swim suits would be a bold move on the part of Sports Illustrated, especially when the humidity of some photo locations would tend to loosen the stickiness.

It would be funny if they started bringing giant waterproof sticky notes to the local swimming pool...
