Ancient Olympics

In ancient Greece, beauty was highly esteemed. The ideal man was young, tall, and athletic and had a bronzed skin. Naked he was most beautiful. It’s therefore no surprise that athletes were often praised as the most beautiful people. I think the Olympic Games ought to go back to this appreciation of human beauty and nudity.
