This is beautiful???
May. 8th, 2005 02:58 pmI've following the pictures here for a while. Funny stuff, mostly, though the humor gets a bit much at times. As in really crude/rude.
But there's also a "Daily nudes" link on the page. Just for the heck of it, I started checking those out. And I'm seeing something that is starting to *really* bother me.
Given that these pics are from sites that are supposed to be "celebrating the female form" (and other such language) one must assume that they are supposed to be nice looking if not beautiful. Right?
But what I'm seeing is really starting to bug me.
On many of the models, I can easily count ribs. The front of the pelvis protrudes well above the skin. And I've even seen ones where the knees and elbows looked like large bulges connecting "matchsticks".
WTf? That's not a woman, that's a famine victim!
Ok. I exaggerate. But not a lot. There's something *seriously* wrong with this.
