I think you're missing the point. Women are treated as sex objects in a way men aren't. Newspapers are supposed to be about news, not nudity

Nude pictures of women sell because men like nude pictures of women. Nude pictures of men only sell well to gay publications coz women don't

It encourages men and children to think that a woman's bra size is the most important thing about her.

Why? Why can't women have breasts and be intelligent people? Only seems to be radfems who seem to think they're mutually exclusive.

I'm not a radfem! Women can be intelligent and have big boobs - obviously. It is the context that counts. Newspapers are wrong place.

Helen, don't you feel it's demeaning to be pictured on a 'news'paper naked with a pretend political POV caption? Suggests no real voice.

If the women choose to have her photo published that way, it's not. If the pictures are published against her will, it's another issue.

I'm concerned it gives a general impression to the readership, not that the model's permission isn't given.

I don't consider nudity to be demeaning if chosen/allowed by the depicted person. I see your point, but don't think it's prevailing.

I agree also, I probably side with you and Helen on most aspects of this debate. It's just the context of nudity in a newspaper feels wrong
