In these days of up-frontedness (!) I would think that posing for "Penthouse" would be the ultimate end for persons adjudged based on the appearance of certain sex linked characteristics. The operators and owners of the entity (ies) which generate the Miss America Meat Marketexhibit a massive dose of Orwellian "doublethink" if they really think what they are doing is "honourable" and the posing of certain persons in "Penthouse" disgraces same. Actually, I side with Bob Guccione, at least he is * honest * about his intentions. I'm sure that each and every one of the women who make it to these meat markets have admirable qualities which make their dubious exhibitions of "talent" on national TV pale by comparison. It is truly disgusting to evaluate people on how well their breasts fill out a swimsuit, or whatever the "criteria" are. Aren't we above this yet? -dya-
