Is that female empowerment scale really a scale? At time most actions seem to be either empowering or not, with no neutrality.

I've no idea where they've got that impression. Even the Sun and lads' mags don't feature genitals.

What a crappy world we live in where surviving being raped or assaulted is considered something 'lucky.'

It's a defining feature of makes a man a man, and it increases in size during puberty. The logic goes, therefore, that a man with a large penis is more of a man than other men.

What's this 2010 study referred to called? Dines and the article refers to a study from 2010 but don't name it. Ever since the Daily Mail misinterpreted a Yougov poll, I've been a bit more wary about second hand reports of studies and so on.

Do you have link to it?

How did they calculate that? "Free porn" brings up 820,000,000 results for Google, did they go through every one? And what percentage of videos actually feature those depictions, because if I understand that quote right one video featuring a gun means that the entire website is included for that statistic?

I like the little pause the dog has at end when the cat bounds past. "Oh, no. Not again."

Never mind the franchise feeling tired, the prospect of an AC every year has the same effect on me.

Yeah. Plans were even drawn up to send its owner to an internment camp during the war.

Talking of car accidents, the Mail once denounced people who took pictures of a car accidents. If I recall correctly, within a week or so they showed uncensored pictures of a man who died when a truck full of coal accidentally dumped its load on him while he was riding his bike behind it. Imagine a pair of legs

It's the hypocrisy that gets me. It denounces porn regularly then features images that are pornographic, except of course they don't show the all important nipples.

An additional point and question. The amount of clothing needed to make an image (sexual or non-sexual) of a woman acceptable for the general public to see has fallen a lot since photography was invented. Legs, arms, shoulders, the belly, even much of the buttocks and breasts can be seen unclothed. When did this

In my opinion, Facebook is unfortunately reflecting the really messed up and contradictory views we have about our bodies, particularly female bodies, and sex in general as societies around the world.

A question: due to the possibility of the model being objectified, in this day and age is it necessary and right for clothing, particularly those of an erotic nature, to be modeled on real people?

That will depend on how you view prostitution in theory, in practice and what it means for society in general.

In a broader sense, many boys and young men are disrespectful to anyone who doesn't match certain standards and expectations, male and female. I'm not suggesting that this disrespect manifests itself equally or in the same manner between the genders, but I suspect the motivation to beat up the boy who doesn't enjoy

Speaking as a man, I don't understand this attitude either. It applies beyond actual sex to other sexual matters too, strippers and porn stars for instance. I don't understand why someone who gives sexual pleasure to an individual or an audience should be treated in such a awful way by much of the very same audience.

Under British law, where a person is asleep it is assumed that they could not give consent. The onus is then on the defendant to prove that he reasonably believed that consent was given. I struggle to think of any situation where a man could say that his belief was reasonable when the victim was asleep or unconscious.

I wonder what age rating this video will get in the UK.
