...any less obectifying/crass than someone posting a picture of a scantily clad woman, particularly one that the woman obviously posed for voluntarily? I'm not looking for an argument, but I'm a little surprised that you seem bothered by the "how hot" threads given your well known "tag line". I'm just trying to understand how you differentiate those things in your mind.

Those threads aren't really my taste either, but I have never once considered complaining to TSL staff about them. I just choose to not participate. I think the super-sensitive, easily-offended, always-politically-correct culture we have adopted is silly...but that's a UWS conversation, so I'll leave it at that. For the record, I think TSL is one of the tamest sports-related message boards I have ever visited. For that matter, it's probably one of the tamest male-dominated sites that I have ever frequented in general. I think the users generally do a pretty good job of self-policing, with the occasional call to the bullpen for staff backup (which I guess is what this is). But no matter how hard everyone tries, some people are always going to choose to be offended.
