#!markdown Fair enough, as a reader I should have addressed my comment to NSMB as a whole not you as a writer. I apologize for my conclusion jumping. Also, I fully agree with your thesis. Adding "sex sells" to my comment was me being overly jaded and callus. I do stand by the position that self promotion is a necessary (evil?) part of being a public figure (athlete or otherwise). Sexualization of that self promotion is I think your main point, correct? In that, getting 500+ likes on your Instagram post isn't necessarily the negative part, it's what content you present to get those likes. BTW thanks for the thought provoking material.
