Lolo Jones, talented athlete and outspoken Christian, has joined the movement of people who think 50 Shades of Grey is trash and harmful to our society.
Lolo Jones and many others out there have made known their distaste for the erotic novels.
They have blogged, tweeted, and shared their way into the fray with strong opposition to the “mommy porn” books and now, the movie.
Lolo Jones is a notorious virgin and starred in the latest Left Behind movie with Nicolas Cage.
Therefore, her stance is not surprising.
Funny how some people think there's nothing wrong with 50 shades of Grey. God didn't create sex for that purpose. Watch another movie

Lolo Jones also proposed a theory as to why the movie’s premise is so popular and relateable in our society.
Some ppl medicate pain by being more and more physical to where if they are ever alone they can't feel any peace.

Her social media posts about 50 Shades of Grey earned her a backlashing like she most likely never imagined.
Lolo Jones took to Facebook to defend herself and her stance.
In her post, Lolo Jones says (after listing some pretty terrible and crude names people have hurled at her since her tweets), “I just wish every woman would know she is worth more than what this movie depicts. And that every man knows being a gentleman is not outdated.”
What do you think about 50 Shades of Grey?
Do you agree with Lolo Jones that the franchise is bad for our society, as a whole?
Even if you don’t, do you feel that the reaction to her tweets was a little harsh?
