What do you think of the "grown-up" photo spread featuring Miss USA contestants?

Sexy photos are ubiquitous in the American media, but the Miss USA pageant is enjoyed by people of all ages. The racy photos of the contestants caused to-be-expected outcries, but does it surprise you?

    While it is more than I personally prefer, I believe it is reflective of 21st Century expectations of women. I particularly dislike this move, considering how the rules and regulations have disqualified young women in the past for what I consider similar styles and behavior.

    I understand that it's not the 1950's but I think that they are going a little too far with the pictures. You can look beautiful and sexy while completely dressed.

    I think that a lady should act like a lady, dress like a lady and speak like a lady. I f she is going to represent the USA she should be a LADY.

    She looks beautiful and I'm sure she feels great and she could be a role model to other women or even young adults or kids.

    I have always thought of the pageant as more of an all american beautiful, talented girl - not poses that are inappropriate and sexy.

    i think that our little girls look at them and want to "be like them" therefore they should tone it down a bit.

    They are beautiful women, what's wrong with sexy pictures? They are tastefully done and don't show anything more than the bikinis they wear.
