| Title: The Bikini Clad Woman Your response to those who said they were
offended is one of the most
specious arguments I have seen. Only outdone by its insulting tone <is the fact
that>that
you think people are stupid enough to not see thru your explanation.
The point is: It does not make any difference if you say you are just
kidding about something, being satirical, or presenting a parody! You
still have done it! You have used a partially clad woman to attract
attention to your site --- and in doing so have demeaned women in
general. Your statement that the model was in on the "joke" reminds me
of the story about the emperor's new clothes. You may have fooled her,
but you don't fool the rest.
FYI--I am a hetero male, married twice for a total of 23 years, with kids
ranging from 8 to 25. I **really** appreciate the female form, BUT I
also respect that more important dimensions of the women that I love and
have loved, more important than just their physical form...By the way,
these women were stunning in their physical beauty in their first two
decades AND are still gorgeous physically now. More importantly, they
are very smart and have acheived great things in the business world and
culturally. Our children together are handsome, beautiful, and very
intelligent.
So quit trying to mask your protrayal of women in a demeaning way as
something funny, cute or satirical. And don't insult us with your lame
rationalizations anymore, 'k?
