Re: Page three scrapped
[QUOTE=littlebob;597521]This is a matter that I have wrestled with, for some time,
Men are visually stimulated and find the female form one of the most beautiful things that they ever look at. I have been to lots of naturist saunas in the UK and abroad, I will never get tired of admiring your beauty ladies, I find older women even more attractive, I have discussed this with people much more educated than me, in front of barb, see is pleased but finds it strange.
Some women however, find pictures like these offensive and degrading. They feel that such images should not be on public display and show concern over the effects these images have on young women, say their own daughters. These ladies have even said on television that in 2015 this sort of thing should stop particularly as women have achieved so much in society and shown they are equal to men.
I am now of the opinion that the women who find this objectional are right. Women should not be shown for male titllation in public newspapers. They must be seen as equals and such pictures do nothing to give women credibility. Barb says I have changed.[/QUOTE]
Hi LB
It's quite a revelation how much we do change in our opinions as we get older! I don't find page 3 objectional, I never look at it, and my views aren't that strong, but as you say LB, it's all about women being seen as equals, so that they have respect.
I'm not sure if all garages have changed, but when I took my car to be MOT'd last week, I noticed that there were no pin ups on the walls. I later thought that may be it's because the owner's wife works there. May be someone can let me know their experiences of garages - year's ago pin ups were in every garage - just wondered if times have changed or is it just the garage I go to.
