You serious? There are also male models, too, ever heard of Playgirl? Plus, it's only wrong if they're doing this without consent.

*Expects to hear the common 'ur stoopid' response.*

that's not the point. it's not just magazines, i see naked women in bloody newspapers like 'The Sun'!
i just find that women are more commonly used for this kind of thing than men are!
and also with the men ones all they do is take off their shirts. with the women you can SEE all the parts!

besides, all the sexual stuff shouldn't be about how 'hot' or 'saucy' it is. sex is about falling love with someone. <3

The simple answer is: They do that because they can, and naked women sell, especially with the common male bottom-dweller. They attract an audience of middle-aged men, and what more stereotypical can you get? What you said may be true, but it's just a depressing fact of life, and doesn't mean it's sexist, but could be wrong, but the difference between right and wrong differs between people.

Not in today's world. I have never heard of a person who fell in love with a prostitute, male or not. You have a good moral view on sex, but not everyone has it, which is a bit unfortunate.

Absolutely agree with kool123. I think it's too easily available to children as well. I'm not feeling sorry at all for the women who do it, since they choose to do it. But I hate what they do because men have less and less respect for us women that way. If it was more equal between men and women I wouldn't mind it. But the fact as kool123 already pointed it out - that it is mainly women makes it all cheap and disrespectful.

Schnusch our minds think alike!! :D

@Schnusch Regarding children, I think it's the parent's responsibility to keep them AWAY from that kind of stuff, you know, like a parent should do? I could get into that topic all day.

It depends on which man you ask, some are more ignorant with others. You can't just group 3.5 billion all into one group and stereotype them on that. Women have been prostitutes since thousands of years, but women are gaining the rights they truly deserve that they didn't have before, let's say, Susan B. Anthony's movement. Women can be anything they set there mind to, and that's a great accomplishment for Humans.

I apologize if I was a bit hypocritical, since I grouped women, but not in a negative light.

you made a good point! it is WAY too explicit nowdays so kids can see it!
hey you know what: all my arguments are explained in one P!nk's song you know! it's called "Stupid Girls". ;)

@darkgorn19 yes you are right. Women have earned many more rights now, but it's still a 'depressing' world as you say. :L

@Kool123 Where are the bloody parents?

Won't deny it isn't, but that's something that hasn't changed at all.

but what happened to all of the ambitions for females? like a female president?
women shouldn't make money out of bloody pornographic stuff! that doesn't show talent or anything does it?!
we should be prospering out of writing books and singing or things like that! so men should make money out of fame and women should be used for sexual arousement??
(im not getting at YOU darkkhorn19, im saying this to everyone.)

I agree about women's rights. Even though as a working married woman I have to say we are not equal yet. Sadly. For the same work we still earn less money than a man for example.

The pictures are so easily available, at least here in Germany that you find them in super markets, on TV around noon time when kids come home from school on the same channel that later shows cartoons.

How are parents supposed to protect their children? You can't block them off from the world completely.


@kool123 You have a very mature view of sex. You should be proud of that, specially at your age.


PS: My husband agrees with me on all the points.

Do you realize that most of the models you see in papers like that make that choice by themselves?

EDIT: @kool123: Lots of males pose with bare torso's too. It's basically the same things, only topless females are a bit of a taboo, especially with other females. And in a lot of papers, it isn't even meant as pornography. It can be seen as art, for example.

@Bond_Of_Fury yes that's because they don't know any better.

There's a market for pornography, and people who have things like no education do that to make money, and it pays more than doing more proactive things like writing. Every single group of people has the good and the bad. Some are highly respectable, some are just filthy whores.

By the way, the ambition of a female president isn't done just yet. ;)

@Bond_Of_Fury the art stuff i find beautiful. that's not quite the same thing.

@Schnusch That's more of an example of how the media is just awful. Here in America, both genders are paid the same, and I'm really sad o hear that all Humans cannot be equal, despite 50,000 years.

I agree with Darkkhorn19 and Bond_of_Fury. As long as it's their choice to appear in those magazines, it's not wrong nor sexist. Also, I have never seen a newspaper using women as sex models. Where did you get that from?

@darkkhorn Very true. The media only cares about money. And sex sells. We should be equals by now, yeah - sad but true.

@cmrm google "Bild Zeitung" then you'll see an example of a very popular German newspaper that is practically in almost every household. xD You're from Portugal like my husband. Well then I know why you don't know. My husband was surprised as well when he came here.

@kool123: if they don't know any better, how can it be wrong for them? Tell me that, because I can't see why I should blame them.

I like the irony that the ones who say it is sexist and wrong are the ones who are female, and vice versa for the other side, not including Cmrm, because I don't know her/his gender.

@darkkhorn Yeah that's what I was thinking too xD
But I have my husband here who's agreeing on my points :P Don't know if he's doing so cause I'm his wife or because he really thinks it's true but oh well... xDD Nah, I'm joking. I know it's his point of view as well so we have one man on our side.

@Schnusch Still 3-on-3, I suppose. XD

Somebody break the tie xD

@darrkhorn19: I can see the connection you're laying now, but trust me, it's not like I'm one of those sexist people who love porn. In fact, I didn't even really used to watch it.

@Bond_Of_Fury And I have to be a bit guilty as charged. My...err, pleasure from pornography may make me a bit bias, but at least my logic makes sense, and is, well, logical.

I don't think that guys who don't think this is wrong are perverted or anything. I think many girls get offended by this subject more easily than guys and I'd say it'd be the same way for guys if it was the other way around.

I guess it's just the points of view. If I was a guy I wouldn't think it's wrong cause I couldn't care less now that I think about it. I would still care about the kids but I would have an attitude like: Let them do what they want! Even if I wouldn't look at those magazines. So yeah...

Thank you guys for this nice debate. It's great when someone has another opinion and is still able to stay relatively neutral without getting offensive towards the other. I think there is one point we all agree on: Equality between men and women.

My sentiments exactly, I loved this brain stimulation.

heheh i knew there would be some debating but i hoped it wouldnt turn nasty! xD

@cmrm try 'The Sun' for example. and 'Daily Star'. horrible papers.

@Bond_Of_Fury i don't blame the women. i blame the men who portray them as sex objects.

I dont like it but it sells. so that is why people do it. but i am not sure if i consider it sexist. i see naked men a lot to on tv. && i know they are in porn to. but i am more angry at the women who do it. no one forced them to get naked && let the whole world see. they chose to do it for money. && that is wrong. men dont repect women as much as they should because of things like that.

kool123: NOT every man views them as sexist. Don't you realize that tons of girls gawk at guys like their pieces of meat too. IT's the guys and girls choice to do it it's not sexist at all. I for one think women should have more equal rights just like men. Every guy or girl look at people that they are attractive to. Look at the guys of Twilight. Many girls love them don't they? I feel if the woman or guy is not forced into being nude models then it's fine. But if you force someone to do so then it's not fine. If you think girls in nude modeling are disgracing themselves, you SHOULD think the men are too. But your being bias to a degree.

FOR SURE

Women aren't sex toys.

@E-rock glad you think so!

@BlindBandit92. yes i KNOW men do it too, but their ways aren't as explicit as women's pictures.
and i also dont like the fact that naked pornographic women are displayed nearly everywhere! and a child could see that and get the wrong impression!

guys if you wanna see someone who agrees with me, try P!nk. look at her song "Stupid Girls" on Youtube and listen to the lyrics! THEN you'll see what i mean!!

@kool123 Are you serious?? Alot of men pictures are explicit. And you are still being bias. "playgirl" anyone?

@kool123 And I've seen "stupid girls" btw. That video is not agreeing with you. Pink is talking about stupid girls. And just because a girl does that that doesn't mean she's stupid per se. I agree with the song and I know Pink is not saying girls shouldn't be nude models. Pink herself has done nude modeling.

@Kool123 It's the parent's job to prevent a child from watching pornographic pictures.

Why does the disagree choice have, "I LOVE PORN" on it?
You don't have to love porn to disagree...
It's not only women. It's men too. That's what sells so they do it.

And you shouldn't feel bad for those women.
They do it because they chose to do it.

Lmfao I don't heart porn like the picture says, but calling it "sexist" is incredibly stupid. Plus it's up to those girls whether or not they wanna show off their body, so who cares?

@Heart and someone_save_me You guys are awesome that's exactly what I thought too.

forget the magazine porn thing. take music videos for example: nearly all the time you see men fully dressed and there's some girl dancing in the back with barely any clothes on.
men are just losing respect for women nowadays.

and no, the P!nk song is explaining exactly what i mean. she was talking about porno and paparazzi girls and how she thinks its stupid.
"outcasts and girls with ambition, thats what i wanna see!"
And P!Nk is better than that. she never poses naked all the time, she has a cool punky way of doing things.

I don't love porn, but it is the women's choice to be in those magazines. There are ones with males in them as well, so it's not like it's ONLY women.
You guys really need to wake up and smell the coffee.

@kool123: You know, it kind of sounded like you do blame the women. Because they 'don't know any better'.

And by the way I see it, I think men are having a lot more respect for women these days. Has anyone here heard of the 50's?

If they are old enough to be in porn magazines, they are old enough to know better.

i don't blame the women. i blame how they are brought up by their families and their influences.
guys i KNOW men do it too but for crying out loud wherever you go it's the women photos that are in your face all the time! no one's gonna want that if they're just reading a paper or something!
i go into loads of supermarkets and i always see naked girls in the mags corner. it ticks me off, and i am fourteen years old and i understand how sick this is! i just hate the whole idea of porn in general!! xP

No one can have your naked picture in a magazine if u dont want to,so that means those women agreed . it isn't wrong :-)

It's actually pretty hard for parents to keep their kids away from that crap. In the checkout line at the groccery store, there are a ton of those magizines.

^It isn't hard at all. Don't spread false info.

>sex models
>porno magazines
>sexist
wut.
Thats the purpose of porno magazines.
These women are the ones making those choices. Taking away their choice because of their gender would be sexist. Women can choose whatever career they want in today's society, given the person's qualifications are suited for the job.

The stupidity of this poll holy shit lmao.

They treat those womans as object of sex with that photos, makes them looks cheap and disrespectful at all.

Key word: consensual.

Don't really care what other peeps choose to do with their body.

Y'all are prudes lol

^^^^^ I ain't spreading info! It's my opinion!
