Ladies,
As a male, I can't honestly say that I was offended by the pictorial(?) in question- but I do recall flipping right past it, in search of material appropriate to a dive magazine. I recall being disappointed that it was not an article about suit design, materials, etc.
It was the least read segment of the magazine for me. In fact, I paid it so little attention, that I had to recheck the issue after I saw this thread. I don't read dive magazines for fashion(?) advice, and if this was an attempt to increase readership totals, it was ill conceived,an inappropriate for a magazine that is aimed at the diving community.
If you are offended by the pictures, let SD hear about it.
If that magazine purports to be a magazine for divers, hopefully the editors will respect your opinions, as divers.
Good luck,
Mike
