Hmm, I have never heard of a magazine called Scientific American. I used to subscribe many years ago to National Geographic.
“...pushing the liberal agenda, sneaking it into every nook and cranny of each and every article.”
I have often been amazed at the Left’s fighting ability, as opposed to the vacuums Conservatives prefer. The Leftist agenda is pushed into every nook and cranny of our entire existence. Nothing is left untarnished. Nothing.
Jesus: “...for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.”
Unfortunately, the phobes at SI forgot about those people. We should protest as such erasure is literally violence. So exhausting.
Oh, Gillette has a model thats just perfect for this issue.
Next years issue? Is that Ballsy-Ford?
As a woman who has briefly been under sharia law, threatened with being sex trafficked if my blonde hair was seen from under my hijab and who has been body slammed to a cobblestone street for not covering my hair in London, I say screw SI.
This is the same publication that featured little girls in the swimsuit issue until Dean Smith’s wife brought to their attention that men look at SI swimsuit issue in a sexual way.
“In 1992, Linnea Smith began a letter-writing campaign to Sports Illustrated advertisers asking them to boycott the magazines annual swimsuit edition.
As Smith wrote to advertisers:
SIs swimsuit issue sexualizes children by juxtaposing them with female models featured only for their sexual desirability and easy access to all consumers.
She did not take issue with the models themselves, but the use of children in the photo spreads. For example, she pointed to a 1989 photograph of a topless Christie Brinkley posing next to her daughter, Alexa, who was nude with her back to the camera.
Alexa Joel, born in 1985, would have been four years old at the time of the photo spread. As Smith told the Associated Press:
The Christie Brinkley one is the worst. It makes absolutely no sense at all. I was unable to ignore it after that.”

I hope they burn in hell.
Like creating a powerful company with longevity and burning it to the ground, these people are truly mental
“Christian women have been mocked”
40 years ago there was a Billy Joel song about Catholic girls. Imagine the outrage if someone wrote a song like that about Muslim girls.
How special. SI celebrates the way muslims mark their breeding stock.
Not true!!! we lived in the ME during the 90’s, and the barber shop begged the Marines to bring them pornography.
They will look at the other pics. Just hypocrites.
Just like their women were head to toe dressed in black at the pool, and Achmed was in a speedo.
and eye balling the women in regular swimsuits.
If I had not already cancelled my subscription years ago - SI became way too political - I would now.
They were both buying LINGERIE! One had lacy black ones and the other had leopard print ones.
It was kinda uncomfortable, a strange man handling their underwear. But they were cool and nice, the transaction went fine.
Ever since then, when I see a woman in a hijab, I can't help but think, 'Yeah, I know what you're wearing UNDER that!'
I guess that's 'empowerment'.
The year the foisted the fat swimsuit model on us should have been it. This definitely is.
To this:
SI all went bad when they put Upton on the cover.
As one writer put it....”One twinkie away from being 200 lbs”
SI's heyday.... Great writers and great photography.
The rise of the 24 hour broadcast news and sports networks killed the weekly sports magazines (although I note that ESPN also puts out a magazine).
MJ Day the woman who runs this issue is a super feminist SJW
big on the plus sized model thing
Shes like the folks who cover Nashville
They hate what it means but like the money
The sports/entertainment industry has gone full left.
First swimsuit issue was in 1964, 55 years ago.
