The real problem, for me, is that this photo is part of a general trend from AA to utilize images that are specifically meant to suggest the nonconsensual. Photos and campaigns like these knowingly draw on the visual histories of upskirt photos and child porn, specifically. They are meant to portray a one-sided…

I think it's more about how defenseless she looks than about the actual subject matter. The whole photo is staged to stress the vulnerability and youth of the (amateur) model.

I'd like these guys to MAN UP and not be scared of women who eat and poop.

I agree and would even suggest this picture is meant to portray a non-consenting minor. She's wearing huge little girl panties and a school girl sweater. Also, it is wholly a picture of a woman's vagina. No face, no body, just literally presenting her vagina, as if that's all anyone needs to know to be compelled to…

I think the reason the author refers to it as sexist is because of the scenario the photographer created. Obviously we all know that the model was a consenting adult paid for her time, but the narrative behind the image is completely different. It is meant to remind you of the up skirt shot of a non-consenting adult,…

Reduced CALORIE option. Soda doesn't have fat and neither do Slurpees

Ugh, what real designer wants to see OMFGFATPPL in their clothing? Get real. So silly of you to even think that you deserve to wear their cute things. /s

Doing it out of shame perpetuates the notion that even the slightest excess of weight beyond the 'norm' is considered fat. And it's so relative, too. She is not what I would consider dangerously overweight by any means. Hell, a friend of mine here in Japan went to a doctor, and was told she is at risk for stroke. She…

It's great that she was able to lose weight, but the bullying is still a very negative, very bad thing. What happened in the past matters because this shit is going to continue to happen in the future. The end was happy, but it doesn't justify the emotional abuse that initiated it.

This is true.

...just because they are nude dancers doesn't mean they're comfortable being trotted out naked to be photographed.

They should sell these in the Ramen noodles isle.

All are AOL trial CDs!!!

Persecuted? They fucking burned him at the strake!

I can only admit this because of my anonymous burner account: Sometimes Giorgio says things and for like 5 seconds I go

Unfortunately, a regular old Catholic Facebook friend of mine has been railing on Cosmos. His beef is that the first episode pointed out that the Catholic Church persecuted Giordano Bruno for challenging the assertion that the sun revolves around the earth. How dare Cosmos report historical facts!!

I can get behind these Creationists. As reigning office champion of waste paper basketball, I DEMAND TO KNOW WHY I HAVEN'T BEEN FEATURED ON ESPN'S SPORTS CENTER!

Creationists are not going to push Cosmos around like they can with everyone else. And good. Someone needs to take a firm stance.

At the same time, NDT has been extremely respectful of religious beliefs on the show when speaking about it. I couldn't imagine anyone outside of this small sect of science haters are upset…
