Hotties of the XXXI Olympiad

[Trini]

So I might end up posting a different guy every day....

Chen Aisen who got a Gold for China in diving:

[MyAimIsTrue]

That bathing suit is practically obscene, not that I'm complaining...

NBC just showed David Boudia rinsing off under the poolside shower.  Swoon!

LOL, I came here to see if this got an Honorable Mention.  Boudia pulled out his scrap o'Speedo to give the boys a little rinse as well.  Hi there.

 

Here's a funny thing, although maybe only to me:  My very chic, sophisticated mother would occasionally murmur "Mmmm, swimmer's body."

[Rick Kitchen]

Not that I swing that way, but Boudia's sync diving partner, Steele Johnson (and yes, that's his real name), looks like the boy next door:

 

[candall]

Mmmm, swimmer's body.

[xaxat]

Why on earth did his parents give him a porn star name?

[againstthewind]

Ed Jenkins, AUS, Rugby Sevens

And he has an identical twin brother.

I stopped paying attention because it's just a 17 day meatfest and I fall in love every day.

 

The other reason?

If ya can't touch, it ain't much.

They wanted him to have options.

Hmm.  A predominance of penis on this thread. A docket of dick. A cornucopia of co...

Is there some fear of posting female pictures because of fear of... objectification?

To be fair, the Washington Post has a perspective on this too.

I could suggest Ellen Hoog, a Field Hockey player for The Netherlands is somewhat attractive.  Let's try that out as a start.

Stolen from another thread but

No, it's more that the majority of regulars on this thread simply aren't that interested in the female form because they're either straight women or gay men, that's all.

Russian swimmer Yulia Efimova is most likely a drug cheat, but damn if she isn't one gorgeous woman.

What he said. I certainly don't have a problem with women in this thread. I might post a few when we get Track and Field events.

Serena!

Bingo.

Is there a limit to how much swimming eye candy we're allowed to post? Oh, I hope not... :)

Luca Dotto...

Ning Zetao...

Oh, I'm going to miss the swimming!

Who knew fencers could also be hawwwwt?  Daryl Homer.

There has been no shortage of hot divers, I'm adding Michael Hixon to the list.

[Princess Sparkle]

While I know we will eventually get an Olympics Abs post from them, the Fug Girls gave us this today: Your Afternoon Men: Arms of the Male Gymnasts at Rio.  They also added a dash of excellent commentary about NBCs scheduling if you're into that sort of thing.

Seriously? I have to see Michael Phelps' arrogant smirk every two seconds, but this fine specimen gets no air time? Where is the justice?

And yes, he can get it, man bun and all:)

[Princess Sparkle]

My man in that slideshow was this fine looking man right here:

In a feature on Ryan Lochte (who still looks fine even with the silver hair) he said he admires Pablo Morales and NBC showed footage of Pablo and I melted into the couch and died. Pablo was my very first Olympic boyfriend.  I love him.

Was he swimming with no cap or goggles? Funny how things have changed!

[mojoween]

He was!  That didn't even register with me, that it was different from today.  Even better so his hotness was on display all of the time.

That pool was outside, wasn't it?

[tanyak]

It was.

[SnideAsides]

Through a combination of the "find your Olympics double" thing on the BBC's website and tampering with the truth, I managed to stumble on Belarussian weightlifter Petr Asayonak. You're welcome, fans of bears.

[DollEyes]

Nathan Adrian of the Men's U.S. Olympic Swim team, was in this year's ESPN. "Body" issue, he was gorgeous-and nude.

I am so glad to know I'm not the only person that thought that.

[twoods]

I have been drooling over the Brazilian gymnasts all week, especially Arthur Mariano. I wouldn't mind him being my pretend boyfriend like Simone Biles does. How can she resist him? Wish I knew how to post a picture of him on here so everyone can drool too.

@twoods This guy?

 

[twoods]

Bless you! There are some great ones of him shirtless out there as well. He seems really nice as well.

[Terrafamilia]

To get only halfway serious...why does it seem like male athletes (not talking about the swimmers and divers here) have an aversion to jockstraps these days? I would think that they, especially the track & field guys, would like their boys to have some support rather than have them flopping around. But, no, it looks like they don't want anything to come between them and their spandex. Do they not want the sight of straps to mar the smooth curves of their buttocks? Are they actively trying to get their packages on Tumblr or Instagram? I don't expect them to be wearing steel cups but do I really need to be able to tell if a wrestler has been circumcised? Maybe they are wearing something but the inner layer is just as thin as the outer.

My long-term (and exceedingly polite) Canadian kayaking boyfriend, Adam van Koeverden, is in Brazil for his fourth Olympics.  Sigh.

Oh Lord, you've made my day, I assumed he'd retired. 

[SnideAsides]

So some hack journalist got onto Grindr in Rio and wrote an article outing the gay athletes he found. This (NSFW) is how one out Tongan athlete (no, not the flagbearer) responded.

[Danny Franks]

So my current crush, which has come back in force after first evolving in 2012, is for Helen Glover, British rower and double gold medalist.

Proof (if any were needed) that women can be strong, fit, successful and still not be dismissed as mannish or unattractive by insecure people. She's marrying TV presenter Steve Backshall after the Olympics, the lucky blighter.

And you would make my day if you can find that old photo of Adam van Koeverden on Halloween, dressed like an angel.  Too funny, and far, far too cute.  I'd swear his publicity people had it scrubbed from the Internet.

I adore this guy's response!

If possible, Anthony Ervin's even hotter now than he was in 2000. 

[NUguy514]

Oh, Anthony Ervin is SO hot.  He, my eternal Olympics husband Nathan Adrian, and Florent Manaudou made for a hoooooot trio of medalists.  I also have a total crush on the Ryans: Murphy and Held.  I'll be so sad when swimming ends tonight.

[katisha]

The guy on the left in this pic, Gabriele Detti, got bronze in the 1500m but gets a gold and then some for being gorgeous. :)

I've been to Italy twice, and I can tell you that there really is no such thing as an ugly Italian man, especially Italian cops.  I think it's the law that they all have to be drop-dead gorgeous clones of Adonis.

[Trini]

Oh, good, someone posted the Italians.  :)

I think Jamaica's latest gold medalist, Elaine Thompson is pretty:

(Not the best photo, though...)

[photo fox]

I give you Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina, who will be competing in the men's singles tennis final tomorrow...

[Souris]

I think I decree the two Italian medalists in the 1500M swimming, Gregorio Paltrinieri and Gabrielle Detti, my Olympics boyfriends.
