Duck-Billed Catechist Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Oh - I don't know - check it out. We ain't fighting - I am just questioning the folks who run this place - as to why sometimes things fly, and sometimes they don't.Probably because there are numerous people running the place and there are no established policies for a lot of things--nor do I think there need to be. As an observation, Kate pointed out that you wouldn't have a lot of women saying "Sure, he's dumb and his personality is repellent, but I'd jump at the chance to do him."

Mr. Kinsley Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 How on earth did I miss out on a big swinging ass gif? And for the extra-junior senator from Illinois - yeah, I'd vote for you. That's not to be confused with "hittin' it" however. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 The funny thing about the "big swinging ass" gif was that it was first posted by Bethanydear when she was a n00b, who was shocked that it caused such a ruckus. On her "Mommy board", such images are posted all the time without embarrassment or shame. (Or being reported.) Link? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good Old Neon Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 i, personally, as i've stated before, have no issue with it. for example, as much as i love it, the 'big swinging ass' pic that created a stir a while back is/was a little more intentionally provocative than some of the images contained in this thread. my post was just me being a smartass, as i'm prone to do. no foul intended, bean. back on point however, i really am interested to hear how the book thrown out there has any bearing on whether i find jessica simpson attractive or not? as bobob stated, will reading said book make me less attracted to certain women or is the point that it will make me feel less okay w/ being attracted to certain women? i guess i'm still not seeing what the 'contradiction' (supposed or otherwise) actually is. jnick, please elaborate before (as usual) i put words in your mouth. Wait, what? I argued against there being a contradiction. bob appeared to be incredulous that others viewed Jessica Simpson as anything less than beautiful, my point was simply this: After a lifetime of viewing the Barbie aesthetic, having it sort of forced down my throat through movies, videos, advertisements, etc, I find Simpson and her ilk, well, sort of generic, bland and boring, desensitized to it, that particular look. And thus, less attracted to it or titillated by it, that look. And that others may be sort of feeling the same way, sort of burnt out and fatigued. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good Old Neon Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Well, yeah, but given a chance you'd still nail her. As my wife often lurks on this board, ahem, no comment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EL the Famous Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 As an observation, Kate pointed out that you wouldn't have a lot of women saying "Sure, he's dumb and his personality is repellent, but I'd jump at the chance to do him." to be fair, while i would wholeheartedly agree that MORE men would and do say that...i completely disagree that A LOT of women don't say things exactly like that. throw in that there even more women who may not SAY it, but sure as hell THINK it. but, as a sexually democratic individual, i think there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. After a lifetime of viewing the Barbie aesthetic' date=' having it sort of forced down my throat through movies, videos, advertisements, etc, I find Simpson and her ilk, well, sort of generic, bland and boring, desensitized to it, that particular look.

caliber66 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 i'd screw jessica simpson in a heartbeat, but i don't think i'd dig her enough to marry her or maybe even have a conversation of any sort w/ her - well, maybe until I had the chance to bang her a few times.Sorry.

EL the Famous Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I don't understand the conscious desire by some "intellectuals" to subvert natural instincts. Jessica Simpson is an idealized vision of beauty because she emphasizes the things we have always, biologically, desired. She looks, for lack of a better term, "healthy". In numerous ways. But, because it is the image our media pushes, and because these same "intellectuals" have a tendency to deny anything most people like (Britney Spears' music, Michael Bay films, Christianity), they will consciously or subconsciously, deny her attractiveness. Of course, this is all just my take on it. I could be wrong. Maybe people just honestly aren't attracted to her. But, there is a difference, to me, between finding her attractive, and thinking she is dumb, or thinking she represents a negative archetype that is unhealthy to our culture. She's still smoking hot. good post. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
