First, if your going to quote me, do it properly and put the whole quote in it's context please: "I have never seen a comic that had the focus purely on a female characters genitalia, in the same manner you've depicted theses male characters bulges."
Thinking out loud is fine. The posted "examples" were being directly compared to Millers WW cvr. They're overly exaggerated examples and calling them "equal" in camparison is absurd.
And to quote you: "There is, however, a LOT of focus on crotches and breasts and ass. See above example."
Now I'll quote another piece of my post cause it seems like you never read it: "I can understand your reasons to rant and I'm not saying there isn't any exploitation going on, but these example covers have gone to the XXX extreme to inflate the point and then are being compared as "equal", which is complete utter bullshit."
Is my point coming across yet, have the blinders become transparent now. Or is someone going to post another example of a exploited female character for no reason.
And just for your info, I don't give a flying crap about owning a LG, blog, or myspace account, even if it is somehow inconvenient to you. So nut yourself up if that's what gives you kicks.
However I did check out your LG, and it was interesting to see that you are an artist. I did a quick google image search of your name and it only took getting to the second page of images to find a art print of a NAKED WOMAN SHOWING OFF HER TITS (or tit rather) AND ASS.
Just so were on the same page, the image I'm refering to: http://tinyurl.com/o64rl
Now here's what I want to know (assuming you are the same artist from the linked pic), how can you cry foul on Miller, the art of your posted image in fact, and other exploitive works, when you yourself are partaking in the very subject matter you say your against. You don't find that HYPOCRITICAL, because it is, HUGELY. From the other images that came up it looks like your art is largely aimed at a female audience and looks generally mild and flowery, so why is someone targeting that demographic, and who is hardcore anti T and A (that ADV cover was'nt that big of a deal BTW), wind up doing such a piece?
Ultimately it's going to boil down into one or more of the same reasons that Millar and the other offenders do it, exposure, money, and gratification. Unless someone had a gun to your head making you do that piece, your as much of an "offender" as the other artists this messageboard rants about, making your statements conflicting.
Again, if the linked pic isn't yours I retract my comments, but if it is, consider your views null and void, hypocrits don't get a vote in my book.
