Not many of the performers WANT to use condoms.

Again, nobody is saying that women are getting a sweet deal out of this. Only that in this particular instance, it seems as though the merit of a person was decided based on their looks, gender and youth rather than their experience or qualifications.

I agree.

If it does, then they may as well just pass a law saying you have to be under 35 and fit to be on television, so news organizations, sports news networks, any online broadcasts, etc, can start turning over their entire employee base and replace them with hot young women without fear of reprisal.

I was at a music festival recently and Macklemore was one of the acts. Kind of a weird pick since most of the others were alt rock, etc (Queens of the Stone Age headlined... and were AWESOME).

That's true. I don't like either of them, but I think the existence and popularity of both concepts is reflective of the culture, they're not creating the culture.

Yeah, I thought basically the same thing.

Well if they enjoy being part of the penny war, then I can see why they would protest the school taking it away from them, when they're the perceived 'victims'.

He never copyrighted or patented Facemash, the college made him take it down before he could.

As I said in a previous comment, it's not that different to me than Lulu allowing women to objectify and rate men without their consent for the 'betterment of women and their ability to make informed dating decisions' or whatever they fuck their credo is.

Huh. It's almost like Lulu for frat dudes.
