'This is a man': Sports Illustrated blasted for putting trans pop star on swimsuit cover
Breitbart.com ^ | 5/16/2023 | Dylan Gwinn

Sports Illustrated clearly sought to ingratiate itself with the radical left when they put trans pop star Kim Petras on their swimsuit cover. However, just like Bud Light and every other misfiring woke corporation, they ingratiated themselves with the left and infuriated their customers.

Sports Illustrated is releasing a series of swimsuit issues this week with four different cover models: Megan Fox, Kim Petras, Martha Stewart, and Brooks Nader.

“According to the magazine, the German-born singer is being applauded “as the first transgender woman in history to win a Grammy Award for best pop duo/group performance, for her collaboration ‘Unholy’ with Sam Smith,” Breitbart’s Simon Kent reported.

“I was so excited when I got the call to be in Sports Illustrated,” Petras told the publication. “It’s very iconic, and a lot of very iconic people have done it before, so [it was a] big dream come true for me.”

“It’s definitely a scary time to be transgender in America, but there’s also so much more representation than there’s ever been, and there’s so many things on the bright side,” Petras added.

Petras may be excited to be on the SI Swimsuit Cover, but the magazine’s current – and now perhaps former – readers are not so enthused....

Top article photo is not photoshopped, and he is not attractive. Plus, a little overweight - pudgy under his arms.

Does he have his privates still?

Article says he underwent ‘gender affirming’ surgery but could be breast implants only.

Gross.

I think the phrase is drag queen. Or more specifically, transvestite. When will this crap stop?

Sports Illustrated should be commended for shooting themselves in the head a la Bud Light and now Miller Brewing.

It's a great way to teach the rest of the business community and world what not to do. And it's a great way to show the investment community just how frikken stupid your management team is.

The Feminists used to say, "The best Man for the job is a Woman.".
Now the even more extreme says, "The best Woman for the job is a Man.".

Coincidence or Payback?

Cuz people kept posting that he’d had “gender affirming” surgery at 16, I always assumed he had a lopitoffame. But you’re right; they never directly say he had it amputated.

"It’s definitely a scary time to be transgender in America [...]"

Yeah, not at all like it was back in the 1940s.

And "in America?" Try Saudi Arabia, Turkey, China, Russia.

If you want to put SI out of business all you to do is WALK AWAY by not purchasing their magazine, patronizing any of their advertisers, or buying any of their merch they sell.

Bet the White House is handing out cash for this stuff and that’s why we are seeing it.

What better? Don’t have to sell mags, just take in the cash.

I think this is also what is going on with the art galleries and their running shows for these woke themes.
