    It's not his body they're hiding, it's the cover blurb on Palin. She probably threatened to file an injunction.


    On another note, holy juiced-up jeebus, he has got some big-ass feet

    @Lymed: Which is funny, since men are allowed to go topless in public, but women are not. Strange laws, we have.

    @Porcelina: Well, men are coated with this protective miasma, which we'll call DemWo, short for "the demurity of women." When men strip down in public, they rely on the power of DemWo to make all the women magically look away, keeping them safe from any truly filthy thoughts that might harm them. Because if men were objectified to the degree that women are, the whole world might come crashing down, and then where would we all be?

    naked men are funny or grotesque - naked women are... decidedly not.

    @BookishLookish: I think it may have been a comment on how naked men are portrayed in popular culture, either for laughs or humiliation. (cf. "Forgetting Sarah Marshall")

    Wonder if he can't wait for publicity to be over for this, so he can stop waxing EVERYTHING?

    @Stream Of Consciousness:


    This is beautiful. Obviously, SBC is being campy, but if magazines objectified men in the same way as they do women, this is sort of what it would look like.


    I'd love to see an entire issue of a glossy magazine with wall-to-wall, groomed-to-death, half-naked men in the usual female model poses.

    @1.1.1.:

    Someone took a stab at showing the double standard involved in these poses. See photos below in linked-to article.
