Glamour Model Debate

heofro

Saw on campus some blank handwritten posters for a Glamour Model Debate, seems like an interesting event, but any idea of what the other poster was like? It said the other poster was 'too raunchy'???

Feminazis ruin everything again !

Nude women from behind looking over her shoulder with a towel covering all the 'bits'.
Didn't seem all that raunchy to me, but whatever.

Well like........i thought it was a bit much, especially being on campus and everything.

Some people call them sexist, but the regulations state that while posters with semi-nude women are not acceptable to promote a night out, they are acceptable to promote an event involving semi-nude women.

I just don't understand how its sexist. The women in the posters weren't forced into it, they posed for them completely out of their own free will. If there were posters of naked guys with conveniently positioned items you wouldn't hear one word of complaint.

It's sexist that feminazis (very nice word het-field, definitely stealing that one!) can cause so much ruction but if it were the other way around we'd be laughed at.

Whether you think its appropriate to have pictures of semi-nude people around campus is another argument, but sexist? Gimme a break.

Will this be another mass debating session?:D

hmmm... interesting... :pac:

Hmm tbh, we saw more in the debate than was in the poster, like she was wearing some pretty hot underwear. As for the debate, when it was good it was good, when it was bad it was painful.

Aw I would have gone to that, I never saw posters.

Last year there was a thing on the home page of ucd saying "whats on" and it gave info about debates and dramsoc shows...i cant find it this year and my life is less interesting because of this:cool:

They just turned the posters around and wrote on the back, so if you look behind you'll see the SCANDALLL!!

It's the same debates every year anyway, porn, EU, battle of the sexes, zzzz

I think the controversy has less to do with sexism and more to do with promoting an unrealistic ideal of beauty and the pressure that puts on women to conform.

I thought Nikki Graham, who used to suffer from anorexia, would have something interesting to say about that, but alas... " lulz they can model if they want, buy my book".

"Glamour modelling is the scourge of Ireland"

I think the guy who took his top off is a legend.

I preferred when the glamour model did it, tbh. :pac:

I was at the debate and one of the models took her clothes off = HOT!! I didt really like some of the debaters speeches kinda trying to be funny but failing miserably and just offensive more than anything. Am going to go see if the porn debate is any better!

That's an unfortunate characteristic of all of those debates
