Questionable Content

Have you seen the latest Sports Illustrated swimsuit magazine last month? They had a section with their models sporting bodypaint "swimsuits". That's right, it looks like she's wearing a swimsuit but really she's buck naked, strategically positioned so the legs obscure the groin. From a distance these ladies look like they are wearing the usual barely-there bikinis but in reality its just paint.


Whatever. The SI annual swimsuit issue has been like soft porn for years so this side-step is hardly all that surprising. To me, its not a big deal. However, I raise my eyebrows at the wisdom of one co-worker who decided to put a SI swimsuit calendar on his wall of those body-paint swimsuit models. Look, your office or not buddy, those are really naked breasts and anyone who looks closely enough will realize that. (As an aside, I think that regular swimsuit calendars or screensavers are unacceptable in a professional work environment.)


I wonder if it'll make it through the whole year or if he'll be asked to take it down.
