The internet was still full of “hottest athletes” lists, and the Track athlete who got the most attention on the Woman’s side wasn’t the one that won three gold medals, it was the one who can’t stop talking about how she’s still a virgin.

Now add nude photo shoots and the like, and it’s still a case of sex and looks >>> talent, even if the overall picture is more complex now.
