If she wanted it, though, that's totally different. Regardless, I definitely think the pose emphasizes her athleticism. She looks confident and poised - I love the way she is holding her head and catching the eye of the viewer!<br /><br />Athletic Couch Potato:<br />There is no reason for anyone to not take a woman seriously as a 'talented female' because of her looks or the way she presents herself...however it may be.m.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-39923782887635337812010-04-23T12:37:38.069-07:002010-04-23T12:37:38.069-07:00Nude men don't have a history of being sex obj...Nude men don't have a history of being sex objects like nude women, ACP. Therefore, a picture of a nude man isn't comparable to a picture of a nude woman.<br /><br />Good idea, M. Next time blacks like Tiger Woods, Oprah Winfrey, or Colin Powell appear on a magazine cover, we'll give them a watermelon so we can tell they're black.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478763837213733775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-54459457897970716312010-04-22T20:38:23.665-07:002010-04-22T20:38:23.665-07:00The addition of the feather is actually pointless....The addition of the feather is actually pointless. If anything, it only furthers stereotypes while 'clarifying' her background for ignorant readers. How come the same would never be done for individuals like Colin Powell, Rashida Jones, Mariah Carey, etc.? Their backgrounds could easily fly under the radar (and for years one passed as white while I'm sure many still believe one is). I'd like to see some symbol of 'blackness' pinned on them in the future, okay, glossy publications?m.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-48299192899133108102010-04-22T16:52:12.598-07:002010-04-22T16:52:12.598-07:00Personally, I do not see her representing her skil...Personally, I do not see her representing her skills here as an athlete, but a beauty queen more calendar worthy than to take serious as a talented female. She is very beautiful and I would pin her on my wall anyday, but this may not be accepted from our native sisters.<br /><br />There is something I notice when it comes to sex and racism regarding Indian women in that they are completely angered at nude "white-women" but do not apply this to nude white males, why is that? As a native male, I think all nude females are sexy.Athletic Couch Potatonoreply@blogger.com
