The article even makes sense to me, a woman. However, I must say that the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue is not far off of being Playboy-type magazine. They need to start putting brown wrappers on the covers when on display in stores.

Why aren’t romance novels marketed towards men?
Same reason.

Why no men’s swim suit issue?
The tubes are just too big and readers become too unrestrained?
People would rather look at frontal elephant photos.

Look at the photos of male Olympic swimmers. Those guys are about as scantily clad as they can get. I would imagine that some of those photos end up in Sports Illustrated. If Ms. Professor wants to see such pics, she is just not looking hard enough - or ignores them because they do not fit in with her preconceived notions, and she cannot express her righteous anger so we can all benefit from her expansive education.
Yes, that was sarcasm.

Because Sports Illustrated is homophobic. Not only that, they’re trans-haters. Why isn’t there an issue of transwomen, huh?

Why no SI swimsuit issue for women with men as models. Only feminist nutjobs ask those sorts of questions. As if they'd buy any issues of SI swimsuits for men.
At the core of the question is the feminist belief that the SI swimsuit issue is degrading to women. I'm sure all the models used in the swimsuit issue were forced to do so at gunpoint? (snicker)

"why isn't there...issue...transwomen"
Hey, don't give them any ideas. Like most magazines "for men" SI is dominated by liberals. Most sportswriters are extremely liberal. If nutty feminists or the homo-nazi set put the pressure on them, they'll fold like a cheap suitcase.
I haven't bought the swimsuit issue for several decades, but I'd hate to open an issue at the barbershop and see any transgendered freaks in swimsuits.

Would you like to make a wager on how many years it will be before a transsexual appears in the SI swimsuit issue?
I’ll bet $100 donation to FR that it will be no later than 2020.

The Prof isn’t upset because there aren’t enough pictures nearly naked men for her to look at, she is upset because men enjoy looking at the pictures of women.
She gets nothing out of looking at the men, and it really pisses her off, she feels cheated. Since she has no joy in her life the only way she can feel better is to take away the joy of others.

If SI is still publishing in 2020, I’ll be thrilled.
Or any print magazine.

That’s an interesting complication.
In that case, the wager is for print-or-digital versions: a mutilated man disguised as a woman in a bathing suit.

“Only someone who went to graduate school would say something that foolish.”
LOL. Pretty spot on.

I was kidding my landlord of my office saying he should write to SI to ask for men modeling swimsuits.
