Hey Marius,

Haha AOTS… memories. Totally agree about Hillary. Something about powerful women makes some men very uncomfortable.. hence the corny pant suit jokes. Now I'm no Hillary supporter.. but I've been really saddened to see the sexist way the msm has covered her during this election. I guess when you're first at anything though, like she is/was, you are going to get friction– but has Barack been treated the same way? Is sexism more prevalent than racism in the US media? Hmmm. I think so.. but I'm particularly attune to it because, well, I'm a woman. What does everyone else think?

I agree with everything in your comment, except the Bill Clinton remark. You must be aware of all the remarks about him. During Sen. Clinton's presidential campaign, were there any jokes about her sex organs? There must have been hundreds of jokes over the years by Leno and Letterman about Pres. Clinton's penis. There has been much more focus on his sexual escapades than on the excellent policies he advanced.

hey Andy! Great to see you here. This was shot in New Haven in front of the Yale Bookstore.

Hey Matt! Here's the original video for some more context: http://snurl.com/2vvzw

I just got here from that link on Playboy, and I frankly haven't seen much of what you have done since Rocketbook and that one time when you got hit with a taser. So I think the publicity is probably a good thing for you, all things considered.

I would point out that the desire for men to want to see an attractivel woman, and moreover see that woman naked, is a natural biological imperative that drives our species forward, and is to be anticipated and expected.

Similarly, I read recently that a picture of a smiling baby causes women's brains to flood with dopamine — much like the reaction one gets from taking cocaine, or that men have when viewing pornography. Biological imperative stuff.

So do Mom's who want to see pictures of smiling babies “objectify” babies? Are they creepy? And do parents who let their kids be photographed participate in this economy cater to that need and objectify them? Absolutely — Take Brooke Shields for example, who went from an objectified baby model to an objectified Calvin Klein model. Same deal, different biological imperative.

The reality is that Entertainment “objectifies” everything in the literal sense … in the sense that we take individuals and turn them into a product — an object to be consumed. In your case, a pretty woman journalist/blogger, you are already an object — the question remains what kind of object you choose to be. That men would prefer you to be a certain kind of object is totally natural, to be expected, and in no way creepy. What may be creepy are the people who will try to manipulate you to cater to that need (Fashion photographers, pornographers, etc.).
