I’m sorry if this comment is out of place, but francis’ comment made me laugh the longest and hardest I have all day, and I have been watching comedy re-runs all day.

Yep, Yankees parade. I remember the photo circulating then (and had kept a copy for a while!). The girl was arrested for public nudity, IIRC>

that photo comes from the yankees parade after they won the 1996 world series, doesn’t it?

Thank you, Bacchus. Well said. And this is a great, fun picture.

First of all, why is it a hypocritical double-standard for Bacchus to promote sexuality and respect at the same time? I wasn’t aware that it’s impossible to have both.

Second of all, why is anyone assuming to know what she’s thinking? She could be just trying to get attention, inclucing lewd comments, or she could be expressing her freedom, or she could be expressing the artistic beauty of femininity, or she could just be doing it for one person below without the knowledge that someone’s taking a picture. My point is no one knows what’s going on in her head except her. So to claim that she’s definetly asking for it is bullshit. And although this might be the internet where no one can actually get raped, I think encouraging that kind of mentality also encourages the same kind of mentality that does actually lead men to rape women who might be wearing revealing clothing, or acting a certain way. That’s the very debate that goes on during rape trials. So I’m totally with Bacchus here. But it is pretty subjective, and there are women who post pictures and videos on the internet seeking the lewd attention of men. Hovever, unless we know her intentions, how about we not assume we do? Just like how in real life a man should never assume a woman wants it unless she explicity says so.

Man, I’d sure like to meet *her* in a social context, see if we had any interests in common, then talk for a while if we did, perhaps exchange e-mail address and AIM handles, meet up for lunch or dinner sometime, then see what that led to, if you know what I mean.

I also differentiate between good and bad aggressive sex. And I understand your point. My broad generalization was my attempt to communicate to people that unwelcome sex, or rather sexual advances, can very much be viewed as aggression. Too many people I’ve talked to just don’t get it, and I’ve often reduced myself to extremes to try to pound it in.

I appreciate the reply.
