I wonder when society will deem this inappropriate....

I am giving a warning about watching this video.

Please do not watch if you do not want to see almost naked women hanging from a ceiling by chains. Or necrophilia.

This is the trailer for the much awaited new Kanye West video "Monster"...

Society has at certain times checked itself w/o the enactment of laws that infringe upon free speech. I wonder when society might get around to doing something about misogyny.

1. When it no longer sells product.

Sex sells, ya know?

10. I wonder why? I wonder if a product could be sold without the sexualization. nt

5. "Eye of the beholder" type thing. Here is a DU thread about a search

for 'models' for a "male libido and performance enhancement" product.

All of the 'models' are female, scantily attired, and despite the apparent misogyny of being used to sell such a product, the concept was received with approval by the readers/posters in the thread.

12. Ah, the arch insinuation technique.

Putting quotes around models to suggest something more sinister is uncalled for. Modeling is a high paying and honorable profession, I have known men and women who cleaned up doing it, many of whom went on to other things after that career. In addition, if you do not see the difference between wearing a bikini and what Kanye is doing you are missing some huge factors.
What is it you are trying to imply with your wee 'model' ploy? Considering you are speaking about the daughter of one of our own, I find your comment to be rude as well as vague and based on implications.

6. Kanye sucks (Sorry, Sultana, I know you like him).

7. OK wtf is up with Youtube wanting my google account name and password?

I don't want all these accounts linked together so there's one gynormous file on me somewhere ... boo. :(

8. Kanye is too derivitive to get by with being such a crashing bore

He seemed talented for about a day.

9. Not soon enough along with all the other crap
