    Men in the West are dressed in full; women are dressed half , quarter or less

    Advertizing is a poor way to judge. Real people don't look like advertizing. Not to mention that men are treated the same way in advertizing, posing in skimpy underwear in suggestive poses. Sex has been used to sell products since advertizing became an industry... so perhaps the real problem...

    Men in the West are dressed in full; women are dressed half , quarter or less

    I've seen plenty of older ladies wearing shorts and t-shirts. I've seen plenty of younger ladies in ankle length dresses. There isn't a single "look" for every woman and we are free to choose what clothing we want to wear at any given time. wa:do

    Men in the West are dressed in full; women are dressed half , quarter or less

    "the west" is not a society.... it's a collection of many varied societies. You wouldn't expect me to claim that "middle eastern society" is a valid group. Saudi's are not the same as Iranians or Jordanians or Israelis and so on. The problem isn't questioning why some women choose to dress...

    Because wearing a burka sucks. Women dress however they want to. I personally prefer baggy T-shirts and jeans when dressing casually. wa:do

    PW's art thread

    Ok, I need some advice on this one! Should I fill in the blank space or not? On one hand I feel like it enhances the loneliness of the image and that adding more would detract from the eye settling on that part of the picture. On the other hand... it's empty! wa:do

    Spanish fresco restoration botched by amateur

    OMG.... well, the plus side is that the fresco is now going to get some attention. Hopefully they can repair the damage. This isn't the first botched "repair". Still, the old lady's heart was in the right place... it was really the guy who let her do it that should be blamed. wa:do

    That's a pretty cool idea! Someone else suggested focusing on specific time/places like the Morrison Formation or Hell Creek. I may have to do a bunch of these. :cool:

    I'm thinking about doing prehistoric animals. Letting people who donate money "sponsor" a picture and choose who goes in the book. :cool:

    What to think of Thomas Quick

    Absolutely... it's not only important that he get help for his sake either, but for the victims families. If he isn't the killer, then that means that someone out there is getting away with the crime! If he is the killer, they need to find a way to fix this mess. One theme with these kinds...

    I'm trying to. I've been updating my deviant art site pretty frequently, though I don't post everything from there to here. I'm also considering jumping into a "big project" like trying to fund a coloring book through kickstarter. (I'm currently researching what I'll need to raise to...

    Evolution without intelligence?

    yeah, but who's counting... :p On a more serious note though, I don't think people give "random" enough credit. We tend to think of it as totally chaotic and inconsistent, when in reality it isn't. Even "random" events are following basic rules like physics and chemistry. So while it may...

    Should art get government subsidies ...

    Shame of it is... I can't entirely fault him for it. He had a skill (meteorology) they were interested in and he had a ton of debt that he needed erased. So he made the best decision he could for his family. And yeah... he went strait into an officer position. Served his two years and didn't...

    Which Choice Best Describes Your Faith (or lack thereof)?

    Or you can just come to terms with the fact that a poll only has so many open slots for answers and the less common ones will get bundled. Besides, it's just a silly poll... not exactly something to get hot and bothered about. :cool: wa:do

    Should art get government subsidies ...

    Hey I know a guy that became an officer in the military simply so that they would pay his bills and he can get the sweet benefits. He did his couple of years and is now milking it for what it's worth. Talk about latching onto the teat. :cool: wa:do

    Should art get government subsidies ...

    I think paved roads are a waste of money... especially out in the south west. That doesn't mean we should defund the highway department. wa:do

    Should art get government subsidies ...

    Again, you seem to not understand how the money is spent. :cool: It's not welfare and the end result is a product produced under guidelines. You can't just claim to be an artist and get money... you have to demonstrate success beforehand. You propose a specific work to be done in a set...
