Lindsay Lohan: "Hot, Ready, and Legal!"

Let's just say that praising women's bodies for being small and scant and hard is probably not a good way to start out. It's kind of like saying she's desirable because there's SO LITTLE of her to start with! "Hardly takes up any room in the storage closet and eats almost no groceries. The apartment-dweller's ideal."

"big doughy body"

"good for fuck... and storage!"

"that woman looks terrible"
"yes, and such small portions..."

Laurel - exactly.

Haha.

I'm not sure the attraction to smallness or litheness has anything to do with desiring a woman to be invisible or hassle-free or anything like that, though. I think it's just a common sexual aesthetic created and propagated by images in the media.

it might be just cause its hawt tho

It's pretty disgusting. I think mainly because, like Roxy said, only complete assholes would actually use that phrase in speech.

Good Christ, people. Everybody relax and just admit that SJP could use (a) a few pounds and (b) a nose job.

I'm not saying this as some kind of pro-fat thing nor am I criticizing liking "little" women...whether little means short or petite or thin or whatever! But the gestalt idea that a woman is better if there's less of her in all directions kind of denies her the right to a physical self. It's...probably just better to avoid phrasing things that way.

xp give me those almond truffles right now.

Also, this is what I look like, day in and day out

This is true. He was like that at the bar.

Laurel, you and I could not agree more. The day that I actually use the phrse "tight little body" and mean it will be the day that my wife smacks me in the back of the head with her Smith College diploma.

Oh good. :)

ts: tight little body vs. loose booty

Sometimes I am very very earnest despite my best efforts to develop a thick scale of jaded ennui.

so we can't praise women for being small but we can hound them for having a big nose?

Absolutely. The large nose means that they must be at least part Jewish.

Also - this idea is perpetuated by people whose ideas of attractive never moved past middle school.

Well, not that I said anything about her nose, but...one is actually misogynistic, the other is just mean. I'm pretty okay with mean.

ha well so could i

xp to BLAM, you know what they say about high school girls: no matter how old you get, they always stay exactly the same age.

Chloe S. is a more successful version of the SJP look.

loosey goosey

"damn what're we even allowed to say anymore, jeez"

Sometimes I am very very earnest despite my best efforts to develop a thick scale of jaded ennui.

Oh my fuck, WHY!?!?!?!

I'm not advocating masochism, but actively trying to develop a hide to protect you from life's annoying-yet-amusing little slights misses the point. Old people are so much fun to talk to b/c they've lived.

And that's really what I want to say to LiLo - Live! Stop fake tanning and redoing what's already been done. Get the fuck out there and live!

And don't ever hide the freckles. EVER.

uhm but chloe is a giantess aryan blonde who looks nothing like sjp?

But she's got a bit of a schnoz. I don't mind the schnoz.

i mean i picture sjp being 5 feet tall and chloe is more like 6

They might have the same stylist.

i like a tight little schnoz

Is Chloe that tall? I never realized that while watching Big Love, but I guess she hunches a bunch in that show, now that I realize it.

Q. A fetish? I've never even heard of a big nose fetish. What's so special about noses?

A. The nose is directly in the center of the face and is one of the features that comes to identify who a person is. If you don't believe me, then look at this picture of Marisa Tomei, suitably morphed to have a larger nose. It doesn't really look like her any more does it? For one with a nose fetish, the nose takes on an even more important role in defining and enhancing the beauty of its owner. Our fetish may be unusual, but it is not all that different in concept from many other "body enhancement" fetishes. Many friends of ours are interested in multiple breasts, extremely large breasts, in the concept of body inflation and a host of other interests. Check out the links for more information.

OK I've always been into women with a prominent schnoz but that page is weird.

a woman is better if there's less of her in all directions

This reading still kind of bothers me, though. I agree that there's something pernicious about the preference for "tight little bodies" (and not just in the phrasing), but I feel like you're trying to turn it into a metaphor for the amount of respect men have for women, whereby preferring smallness suggests that men would rather women not be there at all. Which just seems like way too much of a leap to me. If you do want to psychoanalyze it, it makes more sense to say that a preference for smallness may indicate a desire to dominate, but I don't think that this is the same thing as negating the woman altogether, nor even disrespecting her.

Or not necessarily the same thing. In plenty of instances, it probably is.

its not negating the woman altogether, its reducing her size to the level of objecthood

jay, OTM.

It could also be, as I figured out from a few of my friends who seem to have an inability to date any woman over 5'2"/115lbs. - They want someone that they can feel like they are protecting. From what? Who the fuck knows? They just want to feel like they're needed, because, without their big, strong protector of a man, those little girls are gonna get killed, raped, beat up, taken advantage of, etc.

Kind of a really, really wierd daddy thing.

kind of a pedo thing, sounds like

Man, I hope my punctuation improves over the course of the next week - if I use commas and hyphens that loosely in the bar exam, I am fucked!

that hannah montana has a tight little body

kind of a pedo thing, sounds like

Yeah, maybe, but without any of the inherent taboos that pedo has with it. With THOSE guys, a huge part of the turn-on is that this is pretty much verboten by any societal norms today. Whereas these doll-daters really just want this perfect, little woman replicant that they can worship/protect.

Despite hating his songs, I would not want to fight Billy Ray over this - he's got some guns.
