Sports Illustrated has revealed the first ever black and Asian transgender model to grace the pages of its annual Swimsuit Issue.

Nope. Sorry but SI will not achieve TRUE wokeness until they have a black, lesbian, transgender midget doing a photoshoot.

Well, it is still true that they have never had a black and Asian and HISPANIC transgender model.

Why so much hatred SI? Why you no like black and Asian and HISPANIC transgenders?????

Um Ew.

I don’t think Sports Illustrated’s fan base is going to want to look at a man in a woman’s bathing suit.

Can’t wait to see the comparative sales figures.
