Slashy pictures from the Olympics 2008! From Getty images hence watermark.




US waterpolo team members.


US and China beach volleyball team members.


Great Britain marathon swimmers.


Brazil beach volleyball team members.


My OT3. Men's kayak. Medallists from Britain, Canada and Australia huddle round and slap not only each on the back but also their kayaks!


More of my favourite kayakists. I love them! I love the way they all hugged and huddled, winners, losers, everyone! The photos don't show it but at one point all eight or so of the kayakists were doing this: hugging, shaking hands, slapping each others' crotches boats.



French swimmers.


French and Togo kayak medallists.


German synchronised divers.


Politicians in Beijing. Yep, they're into it, too.


Bitchy girl hugs. No touching below the shoulderblades, please! We are gymnasts!


A bonus non-slashy picture of a true heroine of the Beijing Olympics: Robina Muqimyar of Afghanistan who came last in the heats but who is a heroine simply for having made it there against odds, who trained on the broken ground of the Kabul stadium where the Taliban had used to execute and stone people, and who said to interviewers "I'll wear whatever they want me to wear" when asked about the Afghani authorities who were resistant to allowing a woman to show her face to the world. So she ran with a veil but it's a leopard-print with tiny sequins sewn on!


So: what were your favourite slashy moments?

And what sport is the slashiest? (I vote for men's single kayak.)

Just based on the pics, I'd have to vote for the swimmers. They seem quite passionate, and there IS a lot of skin touching! LOL at the gymnasts!

Oh yes, the swimmers do have that nekkid thing going on; it's quite eye-mesmerising.

This happened to me. I loaded and looked: half the pictures gone. I looked again: half the pictures gone but this time a different time.

Just now I opened this post and hey, they're all there! So I'm sorry but I don't know what that is all about..

As long as you're seeing SOME of the pics. ;-)

I missed all of the Phelps! I saw no swimming at all! But hey, the six-pack is not bad. Not bad at all. And the tats! He's got the Olympic rings: how cute is that! (Well, I'm choosing to interpret it as cute... *g*)
Swimmers do have the SKIN advantage. :-)

That's the first image of Phelps that I've seen where he's actually got BODY HAIR! The little "M" tatt he's got is for University of Michigan. :)

I used to think that the person stroking his tummy was a guy but then someone pointed out that it was a girl! It's still very hot though. :D

There's been tons of photos posted of sexy swimmers and divers in their tight/tiny speedos. Nomnomnom! :)

I think wrestling is the slashiest. There's a picture of the French wrestler being rimmed.

I kid you not.

Sure he's got his little wrestling outfit on, but face to butt = rimming to me, clothes or not!

I loved the picture of the French swimmer undressing his teammate. That one was delightful.

I may have to do my own pic post now.
