Christians and Body Building

Do you think it's okay for a Christian to be involved in body building competitions where one has to wear a tiny bathing suit, get all oiled up, and pose for everyone?

I ask because I know someone who does this and has the pictures all over his Facebook account. Let's just say I wouldn't want my fiance looking at them, and he gets all kinds of comments from girls. I sent him a message asking if he doesn't think that it could be a stumbling block, and told him that I for one wouldn't want my wife seeing another guy like that, but he never replied to me. Should I send another message? Am I wrong here?

This may explain the old adage about Baptists being Methodists with shoes, and Presbyterians being Baptists who can read. To round out the adage, Lutherans might qualify as Presbyterians who drink to excess, and Episcopalians as Lutherans who know when to say when. - D.G. Hart
