« Miss Apropos Follows Madonna's Evolutions So You Don't Have To | Main | Accidental Admission Watch »
June 21, 2004

Why?

Cathy Seipp deals with this jackassery in the last paragraph of this post.

Thanks to Way Off Base, who considers this photo as about as gay as you can possibly get, despite the fact it depicts a pregnant straight couple.

The dividing line between liberal and conservative as regards sexual mores has less and less to do with actual sexual practices. It's more about taste and dignity and simple ludicrousness.

Can pregnant women be beautiful? Probably, especially as regards one's own wife. But do they have to be beautiful in the Los Angeles Times? There's a very creepy evangelistic aspect to these people. They have a very weird need to share their sexuality with you, no matter how much we all encourage them to "share amongst themselves."

Nudists are more eager to convince you of the beauty of their bodies (despite the often-compelling visual evidence to the contrary) than weed-enthusiasts are to convince you that we can build space shuttles out of hemp.

Ralph Fiennes and Pink are having a baby?

That photo is just...so...wrong.

Or is it a shot of Neisef taken during his abuse at Abu Ghraib?

Every guy who's into this sort of socially-inappropriate public sexuality looks just like that. A little seedy, a little weedy, skinny and chubby at the same time, and they've all got the same Beavis-at-age-40 goatee.

Posted by: ace on June 21, 2004 07:29 PM

Although I agree with the point of the post, you may want to avoid the phrase "pregnant straight couple."

Couples don't get pregnant. Couples conceive. The man gets the woman pregnant, at which time she's pregnant, they're expecting.

I'm not usually into PC-speak, but when it comes to pregnancy, the woman deserves the props. I sure as hell don't want to be the one to carry and pass a squirming watermelon.

Posted by: Brian B on June 21, 2004 07:54 PM

Yeah, if "we" were pregnant, why am "I" the only one with stretch marks?

I think that maternity photographs can be beautiful. I've seen many done in a tasteful fashion. However, none of those have either (a) appeared in a newspaper, or (b) involved the photograph of the father-to-be resting his head on his pregnant wife's swollen stomach with a sappy expression pasted on his face. Blech. Double Blech.

Posted by: Scott on June 21, 2004 08:22 PM

Yes, my objection isn't to the notion of maternity photographs. I object to the need to share.

I don't believe in sharing. I'm a Republican.

Posted by: ace on June 21, 2004 08:23 PM

Scott:

a) absolutely
b) The presence of the father in the photo ain't so bad, it's the wardrobe and pose selected that really makes me want to hurl. Besides, see a).

Oh, and I really really REALLY agree with a). Did I mention that?

Posted by: Brian B on June 21, 2004 08:34 PM

Oh, and what's with the chick in the foreground? Shadow puppets?

Posted by: Brian B on June 21, 2004 08:37 PM

How much do you want to bet that this chick is one of those women who says, "Thank Goddess," instead of "Thank God"?

These people are the reason I have never stepped foot in California.

Posted by: Scout on June 21, 2004 08:39 PM

Dammit Scout, warn a guy will ya? I lived in San Diego for 12 years, and that's pretty scarily dead-on.

Posted by: Brian B on June 21, 2004 08:43 PM

On a related subject, what's with all the hugging? It used to be when two total strangers met they said "hello" and shook hands -- maybe. Now you can't ask for directions without someone humping your leg.

Posted by: Dinkleberg on June 21, 2004 08:47 PM

"They have a very weird need to share their sexuality with you, no matter how much we all encourage them to 'share amongst themselves.'"

You have succinctly expressed my basic argument with the so-called Gay community. They have succeeded in foisting their need to have their choices approved by those who really don't want that much information. From "Three's Company" to Gay Marriage, why the hell do I care?

Why force someone to agree with what they find repulsive, be it your naked, preggers wife, your saggy-ass hide, or your bedroom proclivities? I don't care if you have sex with your furniture, but why is it so important that I do?

Gays have worked vociferiously to force everyone to be "okay with that". They've worked hard to have a wide-ranging influence within every aspect of life: arts, government, movies, media, etc. To sniff "homophobia" when someone recoils at the visual that you force upon them,(i.e. what you do in your bedroom) is to denigrate others for the sake of your agenda.

It's no surprise that Gay Activists have now elevated their self-importance and weird need to have everyone approve of their sexuality above the need for national security.

And a ponytail.

Ace, take a break. I can't keep up.

And leave the "pregnant couple" remark alone. It is an example of something called satire. I got it.

It's funny... I always thought Three's Company made fun of gays. Next thing you'll tell me is that All in the Family wasn't making fun of liberals.

Did he give her a pearl necklace to celebrate the conception?

Jewlery is very romantic.

Ace,

You gotta read Hitch's scorching review of "Fahrenheit 9/11." I'm almost past his Reagan bashing after reading it.

Gplden Boy, i was also pissed at hitch for his reagan remarks, and have now completely forgiven him. moore will be walking funny for a while. and he will NOT be taken to court, i predict.

Posted by: frendlydude2k on June 21, 2004 11:48 PM

hitchens, by moore, to court, that is.

I kept hearing that line from "Life of Brian": "I want a womb!"

Why doesn't the photographer just have the man-child tilt his head and suckle earth womans teat? It almost looks like he's wearing a diaper as it is...

Hey guys,

As heterosexual, manly, conservative men amongst ourselves you may want to know it's
National Heterosexual Moustache Month (http://www.chickenhead.com/features/mustache/). I think it's a good initiative. We must stand up and do something before the homosexuals take over our country.
No statement will have bigger impact than a pro-family moustache...much better anyway than those liberal sissies you see in that pic Ace posted...disguised as a 'straight' couple....duh...they're fags, ready to sodomize our children in a neighborhood near you and they hate Jesus!!
Anyway, I thank our Lord and Savior for manly men like Ace who will not let themselves be intimidated by PC-speak. Keep up the good work!

After seeing that pic, I wish I had lollipop stems stuck in both my eyes!

Posted by: WindyCity on June 22, 2004 12:05 PM

That guy is the one you see in line at the supermarket buying feminine hygiene products instead of just laughing like I do when my wife asks me.

Posted by: spongeworthy on June 22, 2004 12:55 PM

George Michael,

The heterosexual moustache thing is mildly amusing.

The hate fags/love Jesus stuff is... well, keep trying!

Posted by: ace on June 22, 2004 01:07 PM

"After seeing that pic, I wish I had lollipop stems stuck in both my eyes!"

Hey, just be glad they don't have pics of the conception!

eewwwww

BIG NEWS UPDATE NOT FIRED

From her lawyer

"The irresponsible reports that have been published stating that Maria Bartiromo was fired or is no longer an employee of Fox are absolutely and unequivocally false," Freedman said Friday. "Make no mistake, we have the receipts and witnesses and they will come out whether through the courthouse or otherwise."

He added: "Those reporting her firing or the incredulous facts supporting that fiction have exhibited a complete and utter reckless disregard for the truth."

from anon2020
So what, she quit?
Megyn Kelly (accursed be her name) used to say all the time that Fox has a top female PR person who is a nasty pitbull and leaks nasty claims about anyone Fox is at war with, including those who have left the network. So I guess maybe she technically resigned? I don't know.
NEW: @FoxNews has obtained Lindsay Clancy defense attorney Kevin Reddington's appeal filing to the MA Supreme Court, which includes Reddington accusing the lone holdout juror of being "biased" against those with "debilitating mental illness", which he says is a protected category.
