Stop Hating on Venus Williams

Ok, Venus Williams is a great athlete.  She is most definitely not a sex symbol.   So if she wants to parade around in her undies (which by the way,  she could be doing that in a thong bikini at the beach and nobody would bat an eye) in an ad for some video game that didn't even get published, and the only reason we even know this happened is that someone leaked the original footage.  I ask, why the hell is this a big deal?  I play video games in my undies all the time.  Hell, I play naked sometimes.  You could film me if you wanted to; but I don't think anybody would want to see me playing video games naked, even though I think some people would like to se me do other things naked.  In fact, I know a lot of people would like to see me do some other things naked.  Sexy sexyness sex type things. 
So Venus Williams filmed an ad that didn't pan out.  Give the girl a break.  She doesn't get paid to play video games, or look sexy.  She gets paid to hit a tennis ball around in a particularly idiosyncratic way (can anybody expalin the rules of tennis to me In 100 word or less?  Yeah.  I didn't think so, whereas soccer is just about kicking a ball around, basketball is about bouncing a ball around, hockey is about beating people with sticks mostly, and sliding a puck around, American football is about getting crippling injuries, and baseball is about standing around waiting to get rained out), and to hit it particularly hard.  She does this very well.  She does it so well,  I am pretty sure her bank account has way more digits than mine.  Even if I sold all my property.
I'm not gonna bother looking around for the actual ad. Instead, I will leave you with some pictures of what you can see at any beach any day of the week, which is more risqué than what Venus was wearing in that ad.
I think I've made my point; but If I still haven't, let me leave you with a few thoughts:
1.  We are all naked under these clothes.
2.  Supposedly, we have banned nudity for the sake of our children.  But children are the biggest nudists of them all.  When my daugther was three years old, it was sooo hard to get her to put on clothes.
3.  If you see a car a'rocking, don't come a'knocking.  That means people are having sex in there, and you have no right to call them pervs if you look inside.  Because you made a conscious decision to look at these people having sex.
4. These are two of the most iconic sculputures in the history of art.  Ever:
 O noes, he's naked.  What you have to realize here is that this is what you see at the Vatican.  The people that brought you unmentionable ammounts of pedophilia.
O noes, her tits are out!  Umm, do you know how babies are fed?  I know that in the US a lot of people that are way too uptight frown upon titties being shown, Except like in Mardi Gras, spring break. or when they are in the privacy of their home, looking at porn and masturbating.  Personally, I love looking at the human figure.  I don't mind when a girl pops out her breast to feed her baby.  We all know what breasts look like.  In Europe and some parts of Asia they don't have this inhibition.  Also, pretty much everyone I know and pretty much everyone that has ever known me has seen me butt naked, and I have seen them butt naked too.   It's not a big deal.
Nudity rules.
