Serena should be banned for naked cover picture

I was quite surprised to read in the recent sports news that Serena Williams, the tennis player, had posed semi nude for ESPN sports magazine front page cover.

It sure knocked me for six and I find it hard to believe that Serena would actually stoop so low for attention and money.

What a shame I say.

She is a complete disgrace and I do hope the International Tennis Federation slams a one-year ban on her from participating in any tennis tournaments worldwide.

Serena Williams is sure disgusting and horrid.

Lets give credit where credit is due - this woman is one hell of a tennis player and has earned her kudos the hard way. Okay she was denied in the attractive to most department but it seems to be the fashion right now to expose one self for big buck - so why shouldnt she cash in on this while she can.

Oh right Errol.....the only thing "masculine" you appreciate about a women is her ability to fix a wheel on a cart or lift your luggage into the over head compartment on the plane. Besides that you want us women to be fragile and docile so that you men can rule and dominate??? Real men aren't intimidated by a fit sculpted body.

Common Errol.. are you writting for purpose or just have something to write..

Dear pseudamphistomum ,Yes i have seen the semi nude pic via internet news. By the way u can imagine a dark iron lady with masculine features in the nude. No guessing for that. Bring the vomit bag...

Would it have been better if Shakira had done it? And for all the provocative, sexually explicit bollywood films Errol.....isn't the pot calling the kettle black here??? :-)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, MonkeyAllen or should I say, Mr World?

Serena earned millions for posing like that. Think of it Errol, what do you get for whinning?

Posted by: wyxz [08.Nov.09 3 : 37 PM]

She should be banned from thinking anyone wants to look at her in that state! I mean come on! it aint pretty! 

Posted by: MonkeyAllen [08.Nov.09 2 : 35 PM]

Maybe you are one of those of a medieval mindset who would force all women into a burqua. That said, I personally would not want to see this particular female in a state of undress! As to a years ban Im sure most readers would want this imposed on you

Can't wait for Errol's next letter...

How long did you spend goggling at the picture before you decided you were offended by it, Errol?

Posted by: veritas [08.Nov.09 12 : 27 PM]

Yawn, Errol. Your attempts at outrage are falling flat these days.

Posted by: pjenkins [08.Nov.09 11 : 49 AM]

when I saw the title of this letter, even before opening it, I could smell it was from Errol... as usual complaining about irrelevant issues...

Posted by: Flowerchildpr [08.Nov.09 11 : 27 AM]

WOW....really?! Disgusting & horrid? Takes one to know one.

Posted by: I am [08.Nov.09 10 : 41 AM]

Here you go Errol, I've given you some attention. Hope it made your day.

Posted by: anthonypermal [08.Nov.09 10 : 19 AM]

Errol, did you see her semi nude picture? Or you just read about it?

Posted by: pseudamphistomum [08.Nov.09 9 : 57 AM]

Oh dear Errol....!!! Let the debate begin!

Posted by: bubbles [08.Nov.09 9 : 30 AM]

There's nothing obscene about the shot... It was artistically done and a celebration of the human anatomy.

Posted by: raine_09 [08.Nov.09 9 : 14 AM]

In that case ban all the bollywood actresses!!

Posted by: P.M.M [08.Nov.09 8 : 31 AM]
