Sad that so many women seem to be happy to trade respect for a $$. Sad commentary on society. You've shared with us many examples of women with extreme talent, but they don't have a fraction of the followers that any of these porn stars have. Too bad.
thanks for stopping to comment, Russ. Yes, it's weird that both the left and the right have their reasons for condemning actual pornography, but they have nothing to say about porn masquerading as pop culture.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Not all women go the soft porn route. Outside the U.S., very few do. I don't understand why the difference. The U.S. is much more overtly political where feminism is concerned, but it doesn't seem to carry over into popular music. thoughts?
Another reason why pop and rock music from Asia is gaining popularity. Yes they have the cute image and the sometimes sexy dances. But it has excellent music to accompany it as well as not relying on the porn image many Western female singers rely on. It is a great shame that we seem to have taken a backward step. Looking cheap and strutting around is supposed to be empowering. But if everybody does it, it just looks a bit sad. I shall stick with Band Maid and Trident and the rest of Japans rock women. While feeling a bit sad that Western Rock remains dull and predictable.

Talent does not require a soft core porn presentation, but sadly it seems to matter.
