       Naked Olympics?

       An interesting fact to share with you guys: In Ancient Greece
       all athletes were expected to participate in the nude. Certain
       'bits' could be tied up with a leather string. As such, no
       married woman was allowed to be spectator - on pain of death.
       Unmarried women were welcome.
       Here is a website link to the most prominent Olympians in London
       posing nude! These athletes look good with their clothes on and
       off. This, however, isn't a celebration of their athletic
       accomplishments, it's a celebration of their athletic bodies.

       Any thoughts on this? Athletic accomplishments v. Athletic
       bodies? Will this attract this wrong kind of attention/crowd?

       Wow, this is interesting. I think it doesn't matter. After all,
       the athletic bodies are results of their hardwork as well.
