Rebecca Flint and 20 others have saggy boobs.

This reminds me: Recently while learning German, I went onto Yahoo.de to download some news stories to translate. The top story was reporting about some super model, and in the body of the article there was a picture of the aforementioned model topless, along with another model. I doubt very much that you would find that here as some people are just so sensitive... :rolleyes:

But think of the children...

Seriousy though, so what if a kid sees a pair of boobs? I used to look at boobs in The Sun all the time when I was a kid and I turned out just fine. :eek:

Exactly. Does no harm whatsoever. Making it taboo is where you start to get problems.

The problem I have with calling for a ban is that if you are going to start pointing fingers at The Sun and Sunday Sport, what about all the publications that are similar?

I'm not talking porn, which obviously kids shouldn't be able to buy, there are however plenty of men's magazines that feature similar. I remember some years back that even the Max Power type magazines just used to be full of naked girls, to the point where it wasn't even really about cars anymore. Not really into that thing anymore, so it may have changed.

Either ban them all, or don't bother.

Personally I've nothing against Women getting their norks out but if it annoys Murdoch BRILLIANT !

One for Liverpool FC supporters anyway.

Pathetic.

You're asking a majority geek-male-orientated forum who predominantly don't have gfs to vote against women getting their boobs out in a newspaper whilst giving a hilariously awful coverage of the news...

Sounds like you came to the right place

Ban 'Page 3' and soft porn tabloids that make a mockery of a government that says it takes equality seriously. Page 3 photographs of teenage girl's breasts are exploitative and offensive and 'soft porn' tabloids such as the Sunday Sport send dangerous messages to youth about the sexualisation of women.

"I'm offended whaa whaa". What a stupid bitch.

I hate the Sun but I have far better reasons than the OP.

The Sun is for scumbags and lowlives, and anyone who buys it supports the vile, despicable acts they carry out.

Castiel · 22 Dec 2011 at 17:27

It's just a newspaper...if you don't like it, don't buy it.

Whilst I agree with this, I am concerned about the large amount of garbage it convinces the idiots who do buy it...

Nope, The Sun is for people who enjoy reading it. Please grow up and stop with the hyperbole.

Exactly. We seem to have bred a culture where "I'm offended" is a statement to be taken seriously. In all situations where the offensive material can be avoided (e.g. not buying the newspaper) then it's just a whine.

The Sun is read by morons and the Daily Mail is read by racist morons, so I expect nothing less.

So, I'm getting the understanding that you read them Burnsy. Seeing as you know what to expect!
