Scribe-ls

Well, I'm too old for this nonsense now, but I was a good looking young woman 20 years ago. I was working at the old Duffy's Tavern when I was 21 and dirt poor, living in Five Points, and trying to save some $$$. A customer offered me big bucks to "model" for him, and he always tipped big and drove a Benz and was a buddy of the owners, so I knew he had the cash, and some of the other girls did some pics for him. Maybe I'm stupid, but I wasn't raised that way, and my self-esteem meant more to me than the money. He pursued me, and the bar glass striking him in the forehead ended my career there. I just can't respect this, and I don't think people who do this stuff respect themselves, either. It embarrasses me for them.

Yeah, I agree with Hollywood. You also have let the MTV and TMZ world warped your clear view of social and professional accountability. A police officer who strips may also compromise herself in other possible situations. Doesn't take a genius to figure that one out. If she wants to be a porn star and believe it will give her the self esteem then quit the force and do it! Obviously, being a service to law biding citizens did not do it for her. She will eventually compromise herself with criminals anyway, if she remains on the force. Sooner or later ,she will slip. Taking off one's clothes so the public can see ,is one example of an officer who might be a liability to the force. A good criminal will, eventually, always take advantage of this type of officer........

Geez it's a prude parade. My point is this: why the outcry when a WOMAN goes out and flashes her assets, but not when it's the men doing the same thing? I think some jealous woman instigated the outcry. We're awful that way, you know.

Now for some repartee:

Drerunner: bunk. Sez who? Criminals take advantage of weak minds; being a prude doesn't preclude being a dimwit - ahem. It's a Moses mile to equate having posed for sexy pictures with a propensity for criminal activity or self esteem issues (love how we've come to toss out that term when someone's actions don't fit in a narrow mold). It wasn't so long ago that a skirt above the ankles was considered a sure sign of evil; hasn't time proved that wrong! Same for short hair on women. How about the notion that no good man leaves the house without his hat (not cap) and a good coat?

Hollywood, being a public employee doesn't curtail anyone's first amendment rights. The pic itself is being taken far too seriously. It's nothing and will blow over by next week. Scroll up for the real issue!

Raysmom, good job with the bar glass. That guy was transparent and that was a different situation I think.

Please...the Pope has a job and so does the President. Can they be photographed with little clothing on? Yes, but they wouldn't be in those positions for long. She's now a pig in the real sense.

By the way Scribe, I'm assuming your a male and not being subjective to the real issue. Would be be saying something different if your child's third grade teacher who is a dude was in a gay magazine? It's the same thing, just a different cover.

Lesson in Figure competition:

Clear Platform shoes= STANDARD

Model Photos= STANDARD

Photo source= FROM A RESPECTED FITNESS MODEL website

FACT= She did not pose in uniform, nor did she represent the city in any way through that picture.


FACT= The truth means not only telling the story correctly, but it also means TELLING THE ENTIRE STORY.

FACT= You do NOT have the entire story.

FACT= Almost all fitness models are professionals in YOUR city (gasp!)

FACT= Arnold Schwarrzenegger was a physique competitor, is a state official, has plenty of physique shots, and holds a PRESTIGIOUS EVENT EVERY YEAR THAT INCLUDES FIGURE COMPETITORS; these are competitors who have similar photo shots. The shots are used to show physique, camera personality, etc., to achieve sponsorship opportunities and promotion.

FACT= Figure competition is a PRO sport. Porn, stripping, and whatever else you choose to compare this to are NOT.

FACT= You have NOT received ALL of the information to make these judgements. You have, quite frankly, been duped by the news media. Congratulations.

Your ignorance is backed up by your statement. Funny, because you seem to take facts easily if they come from a news website or talking head.

You seriously need a picture of Arnold or an example of a police uniform? Wow.

The minute this woman would be offered something based on the way she looks, more modeling, acting, she'd be on the first plane out of the police force. She's as transparent as her platform shoes.
