Are modesty ponchos and chaste coverups coming to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue?
Multiple sources tell Page Six that the annual annals of female anatomy is facing a sticky situation after Sports Illustrated was purchased by the wholesome Midwestern folks at Meredith along with other Time Inc. publications.
Plus there are further concerns the bikini bonanza could hit a bum note following the #MeToo movement.
We’re told that SI staffers are mulling what the purchase by the Iowa-based publisher — whose far less racy titles have names like Family Circle, Family Fun and Midwest Living — could mean for the swimsuit flesh fest.

Do these skimpy swimsuits affect your ticker?
Their faces are not even covered either. Shameless hussies.

They are showing feet, what a disgrace

America isn't the only country where women go swimming. Go multicultural. Let's see what the swimsuits are all across the globe. From Russia to Brazil.
Let's see #MeToo touch that.

THe part I find most ironic is that the very people who chide one group for wanting a bit of modesty turn around and celebrate another group for modesty.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, look at how the fashion industry has treated Christians who want just a bit more modesty, but then turn around and embrace Muslim women's fashion which is actually far more modest than anything a Christian woman might have asked for.

There are plenty of places to 'appreciate' the female form. I am not certain we need a Sports Magazine to pretend to do an annual story on 'swimwear'.
