50 Shades of Grey, both the novel and the movie, offer some very intimate and sexy scenes, but athlete, Lolo Jones is not too thrilled about either one of it.

The 32-year old, who is also famous for being vocal about being a virgin is reportedly fed up with the R-rated movie that she took to Twitter to tell her 408,000 followers what she thought about it.

She sarcastically said on Twitter that it's funny how some people do not find anything wrong with the controversial film. Adding that, "God didn't create sex for that purpose" and told followers to go "Watch another movie." Jones not only criticized the film but also expressed her opinion about BDSM sex, she tweeted, "Some ppl medicate pain by being more and more physical to where if they are ever alone they can't feel any peace."

Despite the bad reviews the film's been getting, it has earned more than US$90 million just this weekend, proving that even though a lot of people seem to be upset with its eye-brow raising themes like Jones, there are more people who are okay with it.

Jones went public about being a virgin back in 2012 and shared that it is because she wants to save herself for marriage. She was also linked to football player Tim Tebow in the past, mainly due to sharing the same religious beliefs.

This is not the first time that the athlete stirred a buzz on social media. When U.S. Bobsled and Skeleton Federation first gave Jones her check of US$741.84, she immediately made a video on Vine and even took to Twitter to complain about how little the money she earned was.

After her video went viral, she tried to clarify her comments and explained that she simply wanted to make a point.

She told E! news that she didn't do it to make anyone mad and just wanted to help out other bobsled athletes. She added that some of her teammates have debt because of their commitment to the sport and that she and her partner Jazmine Fenlator had to do some fundraising so their team can finish the season.
