Pole vault great Yelena Isinbayeva condemned homosexuality Thursday after criticizing fellow competitors who painted their fingernails in rainbow colors to support gays and lesbians in the face of a new anti-gay law in Russia.
The Russian, who won her third world title Tuesday in front of a boisterous home crowd, came out in favor of the law which has drawn sharp criticism and led Western activists to call for a boycott of next year's Winter Olympics in the Russian resort of Sochi.
"If we allow to promote and do all this stuff on the street, we are very afraid about our nation because we consider ourselves like normal, standard people," Isinbayeva, a two-time Olympic champion, said in English. "We just live with boys with woman, woman with boys.
"Everything must be fine. It comes from history. We never had any problems, these problems in Russia, and we don't want to have any in the future."

Isn’t Bammy a “pole” vaulter?
In an earlier version of this story, Symmonds is quoted as saying that he wants to fight the hate and disinformation about homosexuals adding "a huge number" of people in Russia are homosexual (truth: probably no more than 2-3%) and we shouldn't hate on people who were "just born that way (truth: there is no shred of scientific evidence that homosexuals are "just born that way").
So WHO is spreading disinformation?
WHEW!!!!! IBTP
It is under very detailed, pixel by pixel review....
Good for this Russian gal! Yet at this very moment, while flipping through the channels, I’m seeing CNN reporting on a story about a US track star going all pro-homo and vocally protesting the Russian law.
Just great. I can see it now, the American athletes standing for perversion and deviancy, and the Russian athletes standing for decency and morality. What an insane, upside-down world this is becoming. It boggles my mind. Will the upshot be that I’ll actually now be rooting for the Russian athletes to defeat the American athletes? Bizarro world.
Do you need more evidence?
What's that mean, am I now on a watch list?
That would be the job of the Hot Tabasco Mod... I’m the Hot Russian Pole Vaulter Mod.
