Why is it bad that they showed their breasts?

Why is that the bit folks defending the song come down on?

Because breasts are a part of a woman's body. Because in rape/abuse, they are often targeted. Because movies are a form of visual story-telling, and a movie can be "Oscar Bait" but still be a good movie that did everything it could to effectively tell a story. Because seeing a woman's battered body after a rape scene should elicit feelings of horror and sympathy, not tittering at boobies. Because the context of the scenes would have made it stupid and childish to play camera tricks to avoid the dreaded breast shot.

Because breasts are natural things, and that's okay, and maybe we're all grown-ups and don't need to titter ever time we see some, regardless of the context.


(And it's still a moot point because one of the "saw your boobs!" WASN'T EVEN A MOVIE.)

That's not what I was getting at, you fucking ass. Of course women's boobs are natural. What I'm getting at, and what I think he was getting at, is WHY DO THEY HAVE TO SHOW THEM IN A MOVIE THAT IS OSCAR BAIT?!

Because our entertainment industry sees a woman's body as its ticket to a winning movie. Not as a person, as a money ticket. We never seen men's nudity. When we do? It's considered NC-17, because no one wants to see a PERSON like that. Women? They aren't people, so it's A-OK.

And you can get the same, emotional response from a rape scene WITHOUT having to show off the boobs.

His song was literally making fun of everyone who had that reaction. "Oh, we see so-and-so's boobs? I'm in!!"
