Sports Illustrated came under fire on Monday for using Kim Petras, a transgender female pop star, as one of its cover models for the Swimsuit Edition.

It was Petras' first time on the cover of the Swimsuit Edition. Petras joined Martha Stewart, Megan Fox and Brooks Nader as the other cover models for this year's magazine.

"There is no theme [to this year's issue]rather, there is a vision, a sentiment, a hope that women can live in a world where they feel no limitations, internally or externally," SI Swimsuit Editor-in-Chief MJ Day said. "But the absence of a theme is not to say that [these women] don't share certain common traits. They're constantly evolving."

Day said of Petras, "The Grammy-winning pop star, a beacon of inspiration for the LGBTQ+ community, has blazed her own path to superstardom, but it has been anything but a straight line."

However, not everyone was pleased with SI deciding to use Petras as one of its models.

So the "theme is about women having no limitations, and they decide the best person to put on the cover is a mentally ill man.

Guess it proves men still are better at everything... other than perhaps making sandwiches.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

I don't think men look at their crap anymore. Don't think this will hit them hard. Crazy how all these company's want to push this as being normal.

Even if they're men.

Keep saying it. I really feel bad that my sons are coming of age in what America has become. When I was a teenager the SI swimsuit edition was a big deal. They'd sell out everywhere and we'd cut the pics out and tape them up in our lockers or pin them on bulletin boards.

Carol Alt. Elle McPherson. Kathy Ireland. Rachel Hunter. Stephanie Seymour. Absolute goddesses ala ancient Greece and Rome.

Now fatties and dudes pretending to be women.

What a very strange world libs have created. This sucks.

And the only thing that is going to change this is enough actual women shouting it down.

As a man, I'll never, ever, accept a biological female as a fellow male. Never, under any circumstance. I honestly can't say I know a single male that would. Women have to stop putting up with this horse sh**.

I have because it was a big deal when he started taking drugs and cutting off body parts as a teenager.

Now no one bats an eye when a child decides to mutilate himself or herself.

The majority of women are voting for it and just like with homosexual "marriage" the biggest supporters are women because of "feelz."

It's funny to see the left trip all over themselves all the time. They are such hypocrites. They scream about about gay rights, but yet support Muslim tyranny.

They defend Islam, but **** all over Christianity and Judaism.

They scream about a war on women, metoo, not being heard. not being treated well,, but yet they support men, pretending to be women.

They pretend that fossil fuels are actually bad for the Earth but then support lithium, batteries, and Evies and all this bull**** green energy crap like gas, stoves and cow farts, and *****

They're ****ing crazy.

I will say though, every now and then you might see a picture of a really pretty woman and then you find out it's a dude then you're like holy crap. But I've never seen it really work the other way.

Makes me love my wife all the more. She's feisty for certain but she is very feminine, very girly girl. She finds all of this utterly stupid and repulsive.

I don't think anyone is saying "normal". But that doesn't correlate to it being wrong or not legitimate to a trans person (or some other minority group that not "like you"). What these companies are doing is being INCLUSIVE. It's good business sense to be inclusive instead of promoting the idea that "our product is only for (fill in the blank)".
Why people get their knickers in a knot over what someone else drinks or doesn't drink is stupid. Just drink your beer and don't worry if your beer company is OK with selling it to some minority that you're not a part of. Just chill out people.

See that's the thing. A certain poster used to link pics of trans women that at first blush may pass as women and even attractive. The problem remains pretty simple. The moment you find out it has schweeeener and nuts, or even worse, a festering wound where it once was, all that work and effort goes out the window as no sane male (straight or gay) is touching that. That's reality.

No straight male cares about the swimsuit edition anymore, you can find much better looking women online completely naked for free.

So SI now finds someone that doesn't fit the "normal" standards of beauty that will cause a bunch of outrage so people buy it in support of counterculture.

Rinse and repeat. And the red blooded Americans have been falling for it every year, giving SI exactly what they want.

Do you know how much photoshop that picture has?

Granted Martha Stewart has always been a very attractive woman, especially when she was younger. And for 81 she looks fantastic, but at least she's a woman.

Just like the only thing that will keep the NFL, NBA, MLB, and yes even CFB/CBB, etc from spitting in the faces of 1/2 the population is to stop watching.

The left knows most of the right will give-in. Hell, I'm still guilty, but less and less every year.
