    I will admit right now that I am prude. But even there, you cannot compare a nude by Rubens to a spread by Playboy?!

    I'm sure there were prudes like you in the 1600s that called what Rubens did pornography. The fact that his models would have likely been prostitutes just adds a bit of irony to your comment.

    Sure you can. Have you studied art history? Most nudes were painted to titilate, the same reason that Playboy shoots nudes. Human sexuality is nothing new, and as a result neither is the continuing depiction of the nude form. What has changed is the invention of photography, that's all. It's just another art medium

    I don't go in for those pointless discussions of "what is art?".
    Oh, for fooks sake, I am not stupid. Yes, art has always been made to titillate. The difference is the total abandon of any feeling other than desire and said satisfaction of desire. It seem to me that our only goal is the satisfaction of carnal need. Surely there must be higher goals than this to strive for. My dissatisfaction is that we seem to concentrate only on sexual desire.

    It is a very strong desire, no? It is a primal desire.

    But, to step back for a moment, there are some facts missing. The sexual revolution and porn actually empowered women, not demeaned and belittled women. As a whole, it gave women power and control. People over look that a lot because they get wrapped up in their emotion about it all.
    I disagree. The only thing that women have gained is to be more forward in their sexual presentation to men. True they are free to be more sexual, but so what? They still bear the children and the men are still free to not acknowledge the same. We have gained exactly what men desire. Easy access.

    Those women are promptly disempowered when they cease to be sexually attractive, and who wants that? It's better to have power that lasts.

    Not for Playboy, but I'd do it for an art class!

    For playboy / playgirl if offered?

    & would you like to see the person above in Playboy / Playgirl?

    I'd pose for playgirl, but after seeing my package, I'm pretty sure they'd back out of the deal.

    Don't blame men that we don't get pregnant
    But that might be your only redeeming quality

    So you are saying that the only virtue women have is their ability to be attractive to men? .Damn me as I grow old

    you expect men to respect women, but then you belittle men about everything. hardly seems fair, and you wonder why people don't take feminists seriously?
    I do not belittle men, my comment was in the general sense. The men in my life are very responsible. But don't pretend that that I am not fully aware of many men that do not live up to their filial responsibility.

    Heck no. Women can have social, economic and political power, not just sexual power, and real power is more lasting.

    You have to work a lot harder at social, economic and political power, and not everyone has the unlimited resources to invest for the future while having a boob job, getting her nails done, and being waxed regularly in order to be the spitting image of porn. And now, I'm off to talk about less depressing topics.
