You know what's sad? Lots of women think guys are becoming desensitized to the exposed female form.
We've had ten years to get desensitized. We still like it. We're always going to like it. Who knows why. You could put britney's vulva on wallpaper, and we'd still look at it every day.

Most excellent!
I could not have said it better. I have been writing a series of essays on sexuality from the early middle ages to our present days, and it seems to me that it is not until recently that female sexuality has been so wholly labelled as unnacceptable. Too much and too little are both the extremes of a sexuality that can only ever be such if it is allowed to breath between the two.

OH! GET A GRIP! As one mother told her daughter (who is a close friend of mine): "It ain't that special. When God made yours, he made a bunch of others; so get over it." As long as "the press" continues to make a big deal over crotch shots, the crotch-a-rotzee will continue to contort themselves to find the angles to get them. Stop talking about it and stop publishing this tripe and it will go away. Why are the crotch-a-rotzee getting a pass on this crap anyway? And citizen sticking their lenses up a skirt are liable to prosecution. Big issue over little tissue. GET A GRIP!

Hey Lisa, you ultimate babe; Please don't let the capitalisticly sold out "Pop Culture", queers, bother your maternalistic desire, to intellectually exist with-in the "Creator's Plan", as of course, your superior intellectulism, is what the "Creator's Plan" is built upon, as Judaism, evolved into being controlled by the materialists, of recorded history, the pharisees and sadducees, whom had evolved into control of the Jewish state, at that time; but one must realize that, Christianity, insipired by the "Essenes", whom set up monastaries in the desert to avoid the materialism of the pop culture, then, intellectually evloved the maternalisticly evolved "Son Of God", Jesus, defined by Paul,after he learned to speak Greek, as The Christ...Peace,Love,& +Comprehension...MeSighAh...CanU...

Paris Hilton charges appearance fees for showing up at clubs, openings, and the like no? I wonder if she charges for being Britney's new BFF?

The whole Pantiless Britney Affair exposes her in the worst of many ways. If she were to have revealed her genitalia in a controlled, pornographic setting, it would have at least been tended, managed and fluffed in such a manner as to render maximum aesthetic impact. Even a homemade sex tape would have cast her vulva in a patently erotic light -- trashy, perhaps, but sexy-fun, perhaps with even a touch of sweetness.
As it stands, we have viewed Britney's most intimate parts without a trace of style, beauty, grace, joy, or, for that matter, intimacy.
Perhaps these events point not to the burqua or interventionism, but the face of KISS bassist and public reprobate Gene Simmons, who kept that now well-recognized pan of his concealed for the better part of a decade. Said he, "Who wants to see Clark Gable without his false teeth?"

Wow is nerve not the place for the special brand of "I can't belive she showed her *whatever body part* what a whore and think of her poor children" presented here. Nor did I think it was the place where we all get together complan about how not sexy whatever is currently considered sexy is. I thought Nerve was about sexual freedom and exploration and a positive view of sexuality. I can get writing vilifying celebrities for being sexual anywhere. It's not even an interesting point of view.

I feel the same way about the over-commercialization of Christmas. We've over-done "giving" and "sex" to the point where I think I'll just stay home.

I feel this is a truly feminist piece you've written. Women have been objectified forever and these young girls just do it more for the financial and celebrity gain. What is lost is respect and protection of what is important about being a woman.
Thank you for writing this.

"The casual pussy flash" ... Great essay! But who is this Britney Spears person? And what is a burqua?

Why not just ignore her? See how she takes to that.
Sorry Brit, baby. You've had your 15 minutes. NEXT!

Thank-you. Shorn vulva is not hot. Hair = adult = sexually alive & vibrant.

Excellent piece. Absolutely it's about respect or lack-there-of. When you reduce a woman to her sexuality you demean her. By flashing everything in a desperate ploy for attention or by covering everything up in a burqua, you reduce the whole of a person to the sum of their parts. Thank you for a thoughtful read.

I would like to come out a pro-vulva. I like vulva whether shaved, plucked, sculpted or natural and I reject the whole prepubescent thing. If you can't tell the difference between an adults genatalia and that of a child you need an anatomy book. Secondary sexual characteristics go beyond hair. How come nobody ever worries about the pedophilia of shaved legs, armpits or a hairless face?
Also burquas are hot! Cover it up or show it off its the woman who makes the body sexy not the other way around; britney demonstrates this perfectly. The bodys the same but just not hot anymore. And cut the girl some slack... Sure she is a celebrity but she is also a heartbroken girl.

I've never disagreed with Lisa Gabriele before, but now do I ever! I think she IS grossed out that it's a mom. Why SHOULD the thing be attractive? A flacid penis glimpsed would never garner this scrutiny. But a woman's knees, a hundred years ago, would.

" The female crotch, in its current popular incarnation — shaved into pre-pubescent nothingness — is just so not hot"
I couldn't agree more. If I wanted to fuck a hairless beaver I'd become a pedophile. Add one more voice to the "collective ewwww".
Great piece.

Oh, I loved this. and I agree in a wierd way with the way sheilding my eyes from the woman's body has the same affect as drawing direct attention to it. Almost by making it impossible for me to look at a woman, makes me want to more. And when I can look too much at a woman, makes me not want to see SO much....it's like under or over exposure has the same effect. not a good one, you know what I mean?
