Diving is Sexy, But Not SexualBut diving is not sexual. Scantily clad (or in some cases, almost naked) photo exposés of women in slivers of fabric that have little or nothing to do with diving have no business in the dive media. Photos of half naked women in attempts to titillate my interest in diving insults my intelligence as a heterosexual man and I know it offends most women. If you want to see half or fully naked women or men, go online, or purchase the magazines that specialize in such bill of fare. It has no business in a dive magazine.
If the articles show attractive individuals (both men and women) enjoying their pastime of diving, great. These people are often sexy. Sexiness in dive journals must be diving related and equal to both men and women.
