She is an athlete. But she's not an athlete in those photos, she's just a female body posing with a bike. Please don't tell me that she's going to ride her bike in those boots, or those shoes.
Are WE going to hang that calendar up on the wall? No, I think it's the adolescent guys for the most part, or their dads who will put up that calendar.

I'm an athlete. I wear short skirts and heels when I go out dancing. Does that take away from my athleticism? No.
I can be sexy and be an athlete, all at the same time.
I just seems sad that the two have to separate. It's like it's frowned upon for a woman athlete to be girly and sexy. They have to be hard, be an athlete, and show how manly they are.
Would I buy the calendar and put it? No. Not my thing.
