I say the men are lucky they are allowed to wear more clothes. I know i would prefure to have more clothes on whilst diving around in the sand. can you imgaine the places you would have to dig sand out of after every match? These women are athletes and it's time every one started treating them like it, rather then just some free soft porn.

I did not like NBC's "cracking the code" it was obviously just to show women's butts. Also-Luis' poster is not only funny but true in what goes on in the minds of some people while watching women's volleyball. I completely agree with this article.

You are 100% right, it is time these women are known ONLY for their athletics, and nothing more when they are on the court. Kim – I know, what were they thinking with wearing their whites?!?

C'mon people. Those women are incredible athletes, and it's time to treat them as such. I'd love for my daughters to aspire to be like them, but I'm ashamed to let them watch!

I know I remember watching it in Athens and they weren't wearing their shirts. And as for NBC's cracking the code crap... how about their little segment on the alleged "cheerleaders" that dance during games or during the breaks! Beach volleyball has gotten out of hand and someone needs to do something about it! Didn’t the men used to play with their shirts off?

I was wondering about that yesterday. I usually do not watch beachvolleyball because as much as I do like volleyball, this is one of the annoying aspects, even more so as camera work on the female athlets is even worst than the pictures. It just makes me feel uncomfortable as a woman - and I am not prude or anything. With the guys well ... I'd rather see a real volleyball game for the sports of it and it is probably as you said: If may be different if at least they had their shirt of. ;) AH! I was wondering about that yesterday.

It has really gotten to the point of obtrusive and annoying. Somehow I doubt they are copying me, and more it’s just SO damned obvious this year.
