The Stiletto's readers know of her crusade against boobism – the last acceptable form of anti-woman bias (“Boobs And Brains Not Mutually Exclusive,” The Daily Blade, December 27, 2006). Well, here’s another example of this ignorant, ugly stereotype.
On a 31-19 roll call vote, the AZ state House on Thursday rejected a Dem amendment to a bill proposing to change the height requirement for rear fender mudflaps on trucks that would have banned those with images that are "obscene or hateful," such as silhouettes of voluptuous naked women.
A supporter of the amendment, Yuma’s Rep. Theresa Ulmer, tells The Associated Press:
"I personally am tired of explaining to my 11-year-old son why they (women) are depicted on mudflaps , but not all women are 36Ds. He's very confused by that," Ulmer said. "But seriously, this is about family values - what are we going to send out as a message to our children."
Apparently, the message that Ulmer has been sending to her son is that women who can fill a D cup are sluts who have no family values.
At his age, the women Ulmer’s son is most likely to interact with on a daily basis are staffers at his school and his friends’ mothers - some of whom will be curvaceous women who are stay-at-home mothers, or who work as doctors, nurses, lawyers, librarians, school crossing guards, store clerks, etc. Not a stripper, porn actress or hooker among them, in all probability.
It stands to reason that the boy is confused by his mother’s hate-filled boobism. His lyin’ eyes inform him that a woman's physical appearance does not correlate with her IQ, or with the content of her character.
He has time to wise up. Too late for his (probably) flat chested mother, though.
As I said on another thread, "36-D's are family values".
I am sorry. I hope you have the opportunity to move to AZ or another state that lets you live and breathe free. Of course, if too many New Yorkers and Californians move here and bring their liberalism with them, even AZ will be screwed up soon. So if you want to be free even for a little while, move here fast!
If she's so against boobs, I assume she'll be helping us stop the Klintoons.
I've been bellydancing, so hopefully it will eventually work. I just don't get it, though. My clothes are looser, I look smaller than last year, but my waist is measuring the same. Ergh!
Well, big breasts are neither obscene nor hateful. I guess it's what you do with them that could make them obscene - but even then you cannot call them hateful! Unless, of course, you're a woman who hates the fact that she has so little and another woman has so much.
I know. Unfortunately, for both men and women after the age of 30 even if your weight stays the same or is less some of it just settles in around the waist and stays there. It has something to do with androgens (male hormones that both genders have) that go up slightly as estrogen goes down in your 30s and 40s. It's hard to fight biology - but the sexiest belly dancers do have a bit of softness around the belly because it makes the undulations look more inviting. So keep up the belly dancing!
I'd like to see her face the first time she sees a pair of "truck nuts."
LOL. Here is one I got in an email.
Woman who needs to drink more water pingage alert...
OK - got me there? What are truck nuts?
Trying to nip it in the bud?!? ;-P
Probably the easiest way to do this is for you to go to eBay and type "truck nuts" or "trucknuts" into their search engine. (One picture is probably worth mucho words.)
Oh yeah, truck nuts are the next thing they'll want to ban ...
Oh, for Ghu's sake. An 11-year-old boy may not be old enough to appreciate the female form, but he's certainly old enough to understand the concept that guys do develop such an appreciation by the time they get old enough to drive.
