Are women being "Pornified"?

[DaveB]

You know you want to really

Only if they have the right accent

I'm a sucker for a strong northern irish accent, ought to be the other way round

Ooh but they all sound like they'd do you some right damage. Lurvely.

[Halo Jones]

You are of course correct, we are only interested in your minds.

[Peoplesoft bloke]

Yes women are being pornified - I don't like it (really) but as usual, as a bloke, it's somehow my fault

[Bagpuss]

As stated before I think this depends on the social strata of the people in question.

Disagree on that one, it spans all 'social strata' (see 'it' girls etc). IMHO it's become like womens' lib never happened. Empowerment these days seems to mean sexual objectification of women in pop culture. Twenty five years ago Benny Hill's angels were seen as being improper, sexist, demeaning to women, and old hat. Yet now women strutting around in their knickers in kids music vidoes fluttering eyelashes at some alpha male is seen as the height of "girl power". I'm just waiting for the remake of On the Buses.

This place gets more like Mumsnet every day.

Women should watch p0rn more often so they can keep up with the ever changing trends.

I'm Ok with that but what are the rest of you going to do when your girlies get the tape measure out?

Well he is about 9 foot tall, so I'm guessing it all has to be in proportion....

I'll just text CM
