Why I Love the Olympics

Sign in to disble this ad
I really love looking at beautiful female athletes! I really love the sprinters and volleyball players, both indoor and beach. Of course, I enjoy the competition, but track and field and volleyball women sure look good to me!

I thought the volley ball players that I saw were freakishly huge and manly.

I think they are big and sexy! They can kill, save, and spike all day as far as I am concerned.

I'm with you, Dr. Cheese! I think athletic women are very attractive, and somehow the fact that they are so dedicated at a sport makes them seem to be less petty than there hair-fixing, spa-dwelling counterparts. They actually have a life and interests that go beyond doing things to make them "appear" more attractive. They actually are more attractive, though some of them need a check-up from the neck-up.

I was watching the beach volleyball yesterday, the two girls from the US got knocked out by china.

I like watching women play volleyball in bikinis, how come there isn't a channel that has this on 24/7?

As for volleyball, all I'll say is I wish Gabrielle Reece was still competing!

While I don't think that volleyball 24/7 would be an appealing sell...a channel that had athletic women competing (in bikinis) in sporting events 24/7 (like all of the rest of the Olympics, for example) would be a very, very easy sell in the US.

You would watch, you know it.

The funny thing is that feminists (who I actually support in terms of their goals) often criticize men for objectifying women, but so often the women who seen as the sexiest are the women who are known for something beyond their looks. Just look at all of the men on TB who have flipped over nice looking women who play bass when they appear.

I would watch it, I would also get a TV recorder to tape what I missed and watch the good parts in slow motion

I never could get attracted to that. It always seemed like televised trailer trash to me.
