Editor, the Times:

I always look forward to reading the Times letters section. I think it is important to hear other people's opinions.

The lord or whatever theory you believe has created some absolutely beautiful things.

As humans, it is great that we can look at each other of the same or opposite sex as they perform a sport or engage in some physical activity and marvel at the intensity, physical ability and intelligence as they compete.

Some sports require a bare minimal amount of clothing, such as diving, swimming, soccer, gymnastics, track events.

Admire the well-developed legs, the trimness of their bodies, the almost impossible feats of strength and movement, the strain that shows on their faces as they strive to win.

I believe that if these scantily clothed participants cause some people to become sexually stimulated, it is something they need to address with themselves rather than blame the participants or the media.

These people need professional help or at least a closer walk with Jesus. We need to accept responsibility for our thoughts and actions to find peace in this ever-changing world.

I cannot imagine the turmoil some people go through and I admire their efforts to help themselves.

Don't allow your weakness to ruin a beautiful thing; you deserve better than that.
