Subject: Mike, I agree with your statement about women being more empowered, but I don't think showing one's tits necessarily achieves that goal. I'd like my Canadian representative, to have a modicum of class (as well as be Canadian), instead of some recent immigrant stripper/model.

There is a difference when it comes to taking nude pictures to be more editorial than ... well, you know what. Not because a model's top is off doesn't make them a poor role model for girls around the world. It's 2008--it's about time women became more empowered with what they can do with their bodies as long as it fosters self-respect and free will. (And world peace.

Subject Author Date LOL! I do see your point, belive me. All I'm saying is, there's still this double standard between men and women. Men can appear topless all the time (of course), show their butts, etc (e.g., Mario Lopez on NIP/TUCK), and everyone's all hot and bothered. But when a female model or celeb shows her breasts, then she's a harlot. For me, it really is all about the intent behind the image as opposed to what body part was shown. Some people are comfortable in their own skin, and that is cool with me. (NT) Mike D 22:29:59 12/10/08 Wed Well, Mike, there is a difference. After all, Mario Lopez' butt is in fact a national treasure. :-D (NT) -- Brent, 00:42:11 12/13/08 Sat
