Glamour Photography degrades women?

[Owen]

Photos that you see in Mens magazines like Sports Illustrated, Maxim, and Playboy?

Oh, for Christ's sake, everything degrades women. You'd think these poor, defenseless souls weren't being paid for their exploitation.

 

[Emily Hobhouse]

Yes, I do think so. No one respects a glamour model - they might lust after her, but respect ....?
It's interesting to see the fallout from the Jordan/Peter Andre disaster - people refer to Jordan's career in less than flattering terms, even though she has got financial security.

Not really. It only can be seen as degrading to all women if women see themselves as giant collective in an "us vs them" type mentality.

From an individualist view point it is less degrading then most things comedians do to entertain us.

The same type of pictures are in women's mags too. $$$$ mean more.
