@y2kyle89:
To be fair, there are only 3 episodes out so it could be "they haven't addressed it yet" rather then "they never address it."
Yeah that's the thing. The premise is remarkably contradictory that I think they're probably going to do something with it along the lines of TTGL's "Believe in me who believes in you" message that sort of evolved into something that makes more sense in the latter episodes. If anything, this is the premise of the idea they might be trying to develop throughout the serie.
But…I hope not. I just hope it is Trigger just being hilarious dicks and messing around with naysayers on both sides that are looking for value in such a goofy premise. Such as idiots that try to be cool and find "deeper meaning" in things when really its just a goofy stupid (albiet fun) thing to watch.
@Universalshadow:
I think if there is a message here, it's 'Dress however you feel comfortable, some may judge and stare at you for doing so. But since it's your body quite frankly you shouldn't give a fuck about what others may think and say'
Again, you completely disregard my inquiry on the validity of objectification. Way to completely miss my point. The question is not whether I feel good or not in such an outfit, but rather is it OKAY that I am being objectified because of it and it is appropriate to BE objectified. Because that's a valid issue that is brushed aside (for now).
@DarthAsthma:
I think TLC's views can be challenged when looking at the show from a different perspective and they don't have be put down with "you're not a woman so get out". But hey, maybe I'm too full of it, I'm not sure…
No the the problem with the view is that it suggests that it is empowering when in reality, he has no idea what he's talking about considering that he's only looking at it from ONE perspective. And by suggesting that women will find this empowering by suggesting "they can wear whatever they want" is an inaccurate assumption.
