You Know Modesty is a Problem When...

Society today has a problem with modest dressing- no surprise there. But you know it has grown in  very big GINORMOUS proportion when even liberal-leaning celebrities are criticizing dress standards of today. This year's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover featured Hannah Davis in a bikini (of course), but what got tongues wagging was her bikini bottom. Not only did it barely cover her crotch, readers were supposed to infer from her pose that she was in the act of pulling it down.

I'm disgusted by it, but I'm a Mormon feminist, so duh. But apparently, I wasn't the only one. Guess what appeared on The Tonight Show with John Oliver. (Oliver is political comedic commentator, like Jon Stewart):

I was very surprised that Oliver would tackle this issue since, well, he's a man taking on Sports Illustrated. That takes guts...
And then as I was watching Ellen DeGeneres on her YouTube channel, she brought up the same subject!

Just another reason why I enjoy watching both of them. Sadly, it's doubtful Sports Illustrated is going to do anything about it when it profits from the millions it makes just from that issue alone. It's time we take the question John Oliver asks more seriously-- how is this still a thing?

In case the video links don't work, the John Oliver video is HERE, while Ellen's is HERE.
