The latest casting lineup for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue may be its most diverse ever, including women of all shapes, sizes, ages and backgrounds.

The magazine is using Instagram to share the 17 finalist to make it into their #SISwimSearch this year, and the picks unveiled so far include plus-size models, women proudly displaying their stretch marks and cellulite, and even a 55-year-old rocking a string bikini.

Also in the group is Miss Universe runner-up Ariadna Gutierrez, a 37-year-old US Army veteran, and a dancer who suffers from alopecia and is completely bald.

SI has jumped the shark. Political correctness run amok.

I thought people (mostly men) Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue to look at nice young female bodies in good shape.
I have been so naïve.

Sex sells, perversity repulses. Soon say good bye to Sports Illustrated. Liberal and bizarre at its core.

Goodness gracious - you couldn’t pay me to TAKE the magazine, much less get me to BUY it. Jumped the shark and into the frying pan.

Women liked them to as it gave them something to compare to and look at trendy swim wear...just like instagram models...but yeah men are the primary demo and it just went bye-bye

I do. ROFLMAO. I can’t stop laughing. That is totally ridiculous. Nobody is going to pay for the actual magazine after that preview. They must be hoping to sell online ads or something. Maybe it’s a “woke” loss leader now. Can the end of SI as a print magazine be far away?

Last time I was interested in any of this was when they had Ronda Rousey in body paint.

Finally, a thread about Swimsuit Modeling that won’t include any Drapes matching the Carpet references.

(except this comment of course)

SI has been a dead magazine walking for quite a while. They might be able to do something to save it as a niche publication, but what they're doing is trying to put out a fire by squirting diesel on it.

You don't save a sports publication by trying to appeal to people who hate sports.

I’m not upset with any of the models. As Kojac used to say “Bald is beautiful, baby.”. Old is ok too. Big is stretching the limits a little, but...

My opinion will change with the first trannie.

One of my favourite lines from any song comes from the Dead Kennedys 'Terminal Preppie':

My news of the world comes from Sports Illustrated
