vonn New York, Feb 5 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Lindsey Vonn is a very talented skier, and she has been featured on the Sports Illustrated as their cover girl. She is quite gorgeous and very hot too, so a controversy has started over her ‘provocative’ pictures. Many people are of the opinion, that she is on the cover just because of her oozing sexuality. One website is particularly very angry with the hot cover, and has spared no expense to slam the Sports Illustrated for their indecent portrayal of women.

They say that, “When females are featured on the cover of SI, they are more likely than not to be in sexualized poses and not in action-and the most recent Vonn cover is no exception.” Lindsey Vonn is featured on the cover with the title “America’s Best Woman Skier Ever”. She is said to be a sure favorite for the gold medal at the Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver. On the cover she is shown as a skier who is bent over on her skies, in proper preparation for a downhill run. Some critics are of the opinion that the picture is very provocative and indecent.

    Some people need to get a grip and get their minds out of the gutter. She is a down hill skier and its a normal position for her to be in. If someone thinks its indecent, then they have a problem. And, of course SI put her on the cover to sell mags. If you don’t like it, use whats left of your freedom and don’t buy it!!
