On frontpage of Yahoo!: Slovakian cyclist pinches backside of ‘podium girl,’ later apologizes after heavy criticism.
Laments of a mangina at Guardian.
How the hell did this sentence make it onto a mainstream outlet like Yahoo?
Or maybe the implication is that it's "into the arms of" a cyclist, and not "onto the cock of."
And, of course, the cyclist... backpedals... and capitulates to the PC-feminist complex:
Select quote from Guardian:
Sorry mainstreamopshere--attractive girls like being valued for being attractive, and access to attractive females is an implied reward for and a huge motivator of male achievement.
Actually I'm not sorry, nor am I sorry that I'm not sorry. It just made the sentence flow better.
At least a lot of people in the comments section of that Yahoo! article seem to get it.

The photograph has actually opened up a much-needed debate about the presence of the smooch-happy podium girls and the ingrained objectification of women in the world of cycling.

Was not my intention to disrespect women today on the podium. Just a joke, sorry if someone was disturbed about it.

It's hard not to draw the conclusion that the institutionalized sexism of the "podium girls" convention is of a piece with entrenched attitudes that relegate women's racing to "poor relation" status.
