[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What disappoints me about a current strain of feminism is this conflation between empowerment and marketing tools. Sex is a common and powerful marketing tool, initially exploited by men (bikini women draped over cars) and now also exploited by women. JLo is a total boss. She used sex to promote her show. Very successfully. That's not empowerment, that's capitalism.

What would have been empowerment, IMO, is to NOT use sex to promote the show. JLo says f&ck all you men. I'm not using my body in this way for your attention. I'm amazing without my crotch too.

But then it wouldn't have caused all this discussion and it wouldn't have given her the most media attention possible, which is what any performer wants.

So, it was a good show but very much the same old, same old. Not empowering. Just the same old "women are good for one thing" message. [/quote]

What she was actually doing is saying... hey conservative women who have been controlled by men your whole life and told how you can dress and what you can do with your body... I can do whatever I want with my body and no man is stopping me.

Hey conservative men, I can actually do whatever I want with my body... think what you want but it's not for you, can't have it, can't control it, can't stop it.

Stop trying to tell women what to do with their bodies and stop blaming them for what others think while they do things with their body.  You chose to think the things you think. The majority of the population did not think those things ... it's all on you, it's in your head, you created those thoughts and most people disagree with you. [/quote]

Except most people think it was wrong to do -- IN THAT SETTING -- IN FRONT OF CHILDREN.  I have no respect for any woman who rubs her crotch in front of my young children.[/quote]

Please post your height, weight and current hairstyle[/quote]

Different poster.  Are you a teenage boy?

No. Are you a Karen?[/quote]

I am the person who posted in the all caps.  [b]I am 5'6" and 130. [/b] I am 55 years old and have a 12 year old daughter.  I would say I am pretty hot for my age...work out every day and take care of myself.

So, no, I am not a "Karen."

Now as for J.Lo, sorry, but she looks plastic to me.  The extensive work she has had done on her face has makes her look almost alien like.  I hope she stops, but I worry she might go overboard as she ages.  Mind you, I have had some minor non-invasive cosmetic work done and have an unlimited budget if I wanted to have more.  But I'm not in show business, so the pressure is off, and I can age gracefully.

I will do the conversion for everyone. 5'6" 130 on the internet equals 5'2" 160 in real life. I need to see the haircut to be completely sure but I'm sorry to tell you, you are Karen. Your attitude is a perfect match[/quote]

This pp is nasty. First of all, why do you place such a heavy emphasis on the appearance of someone you are debating? Then when the anonymous poster comes forward with the answers to your questions you claim she’s lying.

Sorry but not every lady that thinks the halftime show performance was trashy is overweight and old. Sorry it doesn’t fit your “ok Karen” narrative.[/quote]

Yes they are. Every single woman that hated that show is frumpy. Average to below average women absolutely hate hot women. It's a fact. Quit trying to argue[/quote]
