Also, she actually does have feet.

This is not good. Clothes, maybe. But comments about her face and body?
Also, it seems you do this only or mainly when it’s about a woman. So stop being sexist.

Regardless it IS true that this really only happens with posts about women.
You know that this is only because everyone making these comments is God's gift to beauty, right?

And I really should show them my “tits.”

I may have misspoken when saying it ONLY happens when it is about women.
Everyone has opinions but I really believe most women handle the dissemination of those opinions much better than most men.
Either way it is annoying. I hate people who "people watch" in real life just as much as I dislike the people who do so through the Internet.

The posts were like crack for sad cubicle farm tech worker-bee guys with chips on their shoulders and nothing cleverer to say than "show us yer tits"

Perhaps it is to be expected when the subject is a woman such as Julia Allison, whose interest and social identity are in large part defined by her appearance and sexuality. Mayer, by contrast, is interesting because of what she is doing with Google.
People rarely go after men of Mayer’s professional stature—or, if not stature, notoriety. I can’t recall a pattern of looks-based insults in, say, the comments on articles on Peter Thiel, Sergey Brin, Rupert Murdoch, or, for that matter, Luke Russert or George Stephanopoulos. That is the sexist bias: people tend not to make such comments about men, but they frequently make such comments about women like Marisa Mayer.
There is an exception: male subjects typically get criticized for their looks only when they draw attention to their looks or sexuality: e.g., Scott Brown, John Fitzgerald Page, and Paul Janka.

I would like more Western Europeans to visit the United States. It's so nice to see how they dress, for the most part.

Meanwhile, I think Devendra needs to either show the brillo or the happy trail, but not both. Both feels like the first and last pages of a novel printed side by side.

He's still brilliant and now no longer broke. Unlike me.
