Page 3

[Turkish]

interesting debate on the rights and wrongs of page 3 this morning on radio 5. Usual manufacturered collection, a femist, a wierdo who claimed that anyone that looks at it could go on to become a rapist, an art critic who had a comedy voice and then a few normal people who came in from time to time. What are peoples general thoughts on page 3. It is dated and sexist or is it still acceptable these days?

Brian Sewell, the well-known prize tw*t.

 

I liked the bit where some caller was bleating on about how its all ok, nobody moans about topless women on the beach in tenerife etc etc, then someone else asks him "what if it was your wife or daughter on page 3 then?" The bloke went dead quiet and nicky campbell just laughed

[Turkish]

the scottish bloke was an absolute moron, almost claiming if people look at page three are likely to become rapists. That's him Brian Sewell, utter c*ck.

[Evil Monkey]

Im a rapist and I dont even read the sun. Am I abnormal?

[Turkish]

 

my thoughts exactly Dog!

[buctootim]

tbh I think it was more weird in the past, when the sun was still a newspaper. Now its largely a big brother / celebrity puff piece comic I dont think it matters so much. The only problem i have with it is using 16 year old girls for models. Should be at least 18 imo.

Is it rape if they enjoy it though?

[Saintandy666]

I don't see the problem of it? It's not like anyone is being forced to buy the sun or whatever, and the girls on page 3 aren't forced into doing it. Porn in any form, is a fact of life. We might as well just get on with it. It's harmless most of the time.

[Lighthouse]

I'd have said yes, even without knowing those two facts.

[Turkish]

is there such a thing as rape?

Lets find out. I'll shove a broken bottle up your ass and get a dog to come in your mouth - and you tell me.

[jawillwill]

I generally don't buy any "newspapers" which have page 3 models like The Sun. However, on the odd occasions I do read one (usually somewhere public where ones been left behind e.g. on the train), I feel slightly dirty and ashamed to look at them. I usally just skip straight to page 4-5 instead and thus miss the potentially important news story on page 2 because of it.

a dog or our (TSW) dog? Either sounds strangley arousing. CAn you make it a broken champagne bottle though please? i want to be done in style.

Pretty sure the law is 18 for topless modeling ..... If not then it should be

Just checked, yes the law changed in May 2004. The Sun did use 16 year olds regularly before then including Samantha Fox.

I'm sure there is plenty to be said about the stupid captions that they put on the photos. 'Roxanne is extremely concerned about the latest glitch in the middle east peace process' etc. Surely if there was nothing wrong with it they wouldn't need to try to justify it by pretending the girls have said something intelligent? Although I realise it's probably tongue in cheek.

[saintjay77]

My wife's cousin started off as a page 3 model for the sun. Still does modelling from time to time but now counts herself as a dj, business woman and an entrepreneur. Was on the only way is Essex a couple of weeks back where she showed exactly the type of girl it takes to be a page 3 model

[Kadeem Hardison]

It's harmless most of the time.

 

You tell that to my penis on the day I first got the internet. I mean you literally tell that to my penis. Go on, tell it.

when I was but a callow youth they made a huge song and dance about a young girl who was heading towards her 16th birthday and was going topless on page 3 on that day. I cant for the life of me remember her name, but they must have run that story for months.

Clicked on the link. Wished I hadn't now. What a *****r!! A 10 pinter at least

[Huffton]

My wife applied to be on Page 3, they said she would have to be in a broadsheet to fit her in...

[JonnyLove]

Have to say i'm disappointed. A whole thread about page 3 and not one single picture to help in the "debate"

Sorry to put you off your stroke mate, yeh she is a bit of a hound but I guess they werent employing her for her facial beauty

[doubleonothing]

What is wrong with looking at women such as these fine 3?

 

Even women don't mind looking at it. My Mrs and her mates will often comment on the boobs on show. Nothing wrong with it (though you probably shuoldn't show it to a nun)

[Kadeem Hardison]

That looks like a saucy version of The Frost Report.

[scotty]

What annoys me is those idiots who bang on about how page 3 somehow objectifies women. Such nonsense. I say if it wants to flash its tits, let it.

[Whitey Grandad]

The important question is: 'who is exploiting whom?'

[Dog]

Lets find out. I'll shove a broken bottle up your ass and get a dog to come in your mouth - and you tell me.

 

That's not rape, that's just plain kinky.

 

Infact I would say a tad beastality. Turkish if you want me to cum in your mouth PM me.

[Mao Cap]

Page 3 is Page 8 today because of the wedding stuff...disgusting affront to our time-honoured English traditions if you ask me.

 

Damn Germans, DID WE FIGHT A WAR FOR THIS???

Just get Kate wotsername to do page 3. Sorted!

Taking it a bit further I would suggest Page 3 and porn in general helps to prevent rape. Anyone with an internet connection can access free porn 24 hours a day. When my missus was away did I trall the streets of London looking for a victim? No; I simply used a various selection of websites which I cannot mention due to me be infracted in the past. With Blackops out also I didn't even notice she'd gone.

Did she ever come back?

[Draino76]

Yesterday actually. She even paid her rent so I'm sure she plans to stay for another month at least.

[so22saint]

I heard a debate on Radio 4 as well (sorry) and Peta, 23 from Essex turned out to be intelligent and quick witted, and totally owned Kathy Lette, the unfunny Ozzie *****. it was good to hear.

 

I seem to remember Peta, 23 from Essex was on Top Gear as well
