It depends on your perspective. If you’re a person who understands that other people, even people with vaginas, are real people with their own internal lives, then a pretty girl wearing a bikini could be interpreted as wearing it for a variety of reasons, including that it’s hot outside, she is getting a tan, or she…

She lives in California. I would be concerned if she wasn’t wearing a bikini outside.

I’m sure you have this beaut, but on the off chance you don’t, you’re welcome. I keep him on my freezer door.

Love it. Literally Snapperchat according to Meryl.

Ah, 2011, the Blink-182 of yesterday.

You are a Jezebel legend you crazy lady!!!!

I am not 67 yet, But I am on the same page as legend Meryl

To be fair, I also don't exactly know what snapchat is. If I'm sending people photos it's mainly cats or gifs of joe Biden.

I feel like she did have some work done, but I lso wondr how much of the change is because she can, ya know, eat now.

wow i have so much respect for her now

Because there are totally a limited number of words that can be written about gymnastics . . .

I just browsed her entire Instagram account and found exactly nothing that reasonably qualifies as “extremely sexual.” The pics OP posted are the most provocative and even those are mild. A photo isn’t inherently “extremely sexual” just because a pretty girl is wearing a bikini or low-cut top.

i dont get this comment. the kardashians are less worthy to show off their bodies because they arent elite gymnasts? or am i reading it wrong?

especially in a solitary sport like gymnastics or figure skating. some of these girls go ‘elite’ at like age 8. are being home schooled and competing internationally by age 13. there is no childhood.

-her coaches wouldnt let her smile or joke around (and after the interview her coaches came and out and were like ‘well we got her to the olympics so who cares??????’ sad). she says something like ‘it’s so great simone (biles) coaches let her smile!’ and the interviewer points out its very sad she thinks that way

It can be hard for top athletes to create a new life when they retire. Especially if they didn’t get to achieve their original goals. Everyone thought McKayla would get gold in the vault final and it didn’t happen. Then the media piled on and made the silver seem like nothing.

I’m guessing this poor kid has had a life that made Don Draper’s/Dick Whitman’s seem idyllic.

if anyone has some time to spare this interview with her is very interesting
