General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: It is not about the swimsuit issue it is about basic respect for women [View all]zeemike
(18,998 posts)But I thought that general discussion meant general discussion, and if people want to discuss a magazine cover issue I don't see how that is any of your busness...and if those that find such things offensive don't click on it, don't reply to it and don't recommend it...that is how you vote.
And likewise I don't understand the need of some people to control everything to conform to their POV...most people here I would guess are not offended by pictures of lovely women...I know I am not and I am long past the age where it interests me...but just because it does not interest me I don't feel the need to stop others from looking at it.
And BTW, I saw that post and did not click on it....for that reason...too bad that others that see it as offensive did not do the same, an that would have died like most post do in short time, and no one would have to start endless threads about how awful it was and how DU should ban such stuff....and how men that look at it are pigs...and no one would have to be angry with each other.
And just because I say this the people who post positive responses in this thread will be angry with me for doing it...and I will be angry when they call me a misogynist which is inevitable if I continue to state my POV...that itself will cause division in our once happy home...and it seems almost deliberate sometimes.
