    This is America, are you surprised people are making a big deal out of this?

    She's pretty cute though.

    That is pretty retarded if you ask me. She is in a skiing pose. I think that it makes you look twice and that is the point, to draw attention. Would people think it is too provocative if she was ugly? It is only because she is attractive that it is deemed as sexual.

    When females are featured on the cover of SI, they are more likely than not to be in sexualized poses and not in action-and the most recent Vonn cover is no exception.

    The person quoted above from the article is a complete moron.

    Skis - check
    Ski poles - check
    Ski boots - check
    Ski clothes - check
    Ski gloves - check
    Ski headband - check
    Tuck postion heading downhill (in action) - check
    Sexualized pose - FAIL

    This reminds me of Mott's Apple Juice getting criticism because they dared to slice an apple in half and put in on the label of the apple juice bottle. Now, how in the hell someone could look at an apple and think for one second that it is being sexually portrayed as a cooter is not only sick but twisted and THEY are the ones that need to be criticized. It's a freakin' sliced apple for crying out loud!

    There's not a damn thing wrong with this. She's skiing downhill in the crunched position. Nothing more, nothing less. I mean, come the F on. They get their panties in a wad over a cover when in the Olympic sport of gymnastics or ice skating, scantily clad women spread their legs upside down, the men touch the privates of the females, women and men fly around the arena with their bodies in sexually suggestive poses all the time. Why aren't they bitching about that?

    All SI needs to do is show the 1992(?) cover of a male skier in the same pose, and ask all the complainers the difference.
