It is interesting, your article came up after I made a comment about it on another!
My view for this for Mr. Peterson, would be .... then it should be acceptable for a woman to ask for a man to get into a mankini and take a selfie so she can see if he is beautiful enough.
I personally think Yumi is pretty sexy in that shot. Does she fit the hyper 90s model view of no ass skinny with no body fat? No, but beauty is more then that always.
In fact if one is going to gauge sexiness on the default external packaging, it really and truly reflects the inner soul of the person judging.
As for click-bait and what not, SI should be thankful for him speaking out. Why? More eyeballs on the magazine, because let's be serious ... how many people actually still get paper magazines? I get electronic versions to my kindle (not SI), but how much
As for a response back to him ... Sorry Dude you aren't masculine enough, if she doesn't do it for you and your sexual preferences ... scroll on and move on. Lots of women do the same thing for men they find disgusting, abhorrent, and ick.
With power and this is good, women can respond in kind back to men that live like this. But they also do a service to people they want to date (or not) by doing so in saying they may not be ready for a relationship either. This signaling is important in the dating, mating game which should always be about respectful and civil conversation in building friendships.
One can "get it on" to have transactional sex to fix the thirst if one desires it, and there is nothing wrong with it as long as it is consensual and agreed to with out using (or at least an agreed upon using of each other with equal power and balance). But, and I mean but ... don't expect it to last or have meaning since there is a difference between mutual masturbation disguised as partnered sex versus intimate love making between two caring and loving adults (or more if one is so predisposed).
Judge like this ... the best one will ever have is mutual masturbation with awkwardness at the end.
The truth he shows that the best he has to offer is a hard cock and dull heart with limited soul. The reality is women desire a man to desire them, want them, want to be pleased and in return want to know that their love and desire back is appreciated.
A lot of times that does not require a penis, but a tongue, fingers, lips, a hug, words and kindness and empathy. Then the dot on the i and the cross on the T and the exclaimation in Oh can be the penis ...
