America's Next Beef Tenderloingoodmorning. We were flipping channels and came across this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLqnCpMSmIc ADVISORY WARNING: this is Next Top Model, people; they're not wearing a lot. Also, it's really gross. ... Okay, so now that you've seen the latest fashion horror show, let's see what we can learn from it. Firstly, yes, that's meat they are wearing. Notice phrases like "That makes her look really beautiful" and "She really stepped up today" It was probably only meant as sensationalism, what-will-they-have-to-do-next kind of a thing you always see on reality shows. But it just goes to show you what filth these poor women will sink to just to be called beautiful. Total nudity wasn't enough to wake them up and neither was raw meat. There is no level too low for fashion. But the image of a half-starved woman, hair sticking out in all directions like an old broom, eyes lined in black for a diabetic, rather than the intended debauched--as Bruce Bliven noted back in 1925--look, wearing a flesh bikini (not flesh colored, mind you; flesh) is not just disgusting; it is poignant. Those women are nothing but slabs of meat now. Not one of the women objected, not one refused to do it. There were disgusted remarks, of course, but it was a problem when they didn't look comfortable in their little meatsuits, when they looked totally disconnected from their raw and refridgerated surroundings. Praised for straddling trash cans full of animal flesh and posing in the blood on the floor. Not one even considered if it was degrading. You do what the man with a camera tells you to do. And what started it all? Nothing less than the liberation of women! Read all about it: http://faculty.pittstate.edu/~knichols/flapperjane.html So we need to ask ourselves; is this the kind of stuff we want to represent America? The American Dream is now twenty half-naked women in a meat locker? There's a reason it makes us sick. later. |
