Anyone...?
..care to explain what the blonde in bondage has to do with a (alleged) political ad? I watched the screen shots on the video (but couldn't listen to it at the time), and wasn't sure if that was explained in the course of the video.

1. No it's not explained or related to the ad at all
But that isn't stopping DU from reviewing it as "brilliant" and saying that's the image we need on our home page.

DU would just be so much better, you know, if we more openly encouraged the exploitation and oppression of women. :eyes:

2. good grief--
Edited on Fri Aug-01-08 10:02 PM by bliss_eternal
I kind of figured it was pointless to alert on it--as there were already a few "atta' boys" posted in response to it, when I saw it earlier (but I did anyway). :eyes:

I guess I should just give in to the celebration of rape culture, and find a hawt, naked blonde chick all tied up seeming to enjoy it, to put in my avatar. Then everything I say on DU will be applauded as "brilliant" regardless of content. Gee, why didn't I think of that?

(heavy sigh)

3. I'm half surprised DU doesn't have a regular column
in Penthouse at this point.

4. Sometimes I feels like there are people pulling us in that direction.
:(

I can't imagine how anyone can see that and think it's even the least bit appropriate. And yet, it's still there.

5. That's funny
In a sad, sick but true sort of way.

6. The very definition of feminism on DU:
The "freedom" of women to "choose" to comply with the Sexbot Mandate.
