Babes of Sorry Everybody

[The Sushi Bandit]

http://babesofsorryeverybody.blogspot.com/

This site celebrates some of the beautiful women of the Progressive movement.

These pictures were gleened from the website "http://SorryEverybody.com". This Blog is not intended to be sexist. Think of it as a new way to get the message out to those who normally would not go through the thousand plus photos contained on the site.

As far as I can tell all the photographs are in the public domain and contain no information as to the identity of the poster.

Enjoy and LEARN!

2. Call me regressive

But I would love still love to meet those women

[Dogmudgeon]

5. Yes, they are pretty

I especially liked Michelle from Denamrk (#43), upholding the true spirit of Socialism. Or "Socialism of the Heart", as Billy Bragg would say. I just hope she has a real large apartment.

If nothing else, it refutes the Freeper myth that leftist woman are ugly.

6. What if this thread was about a hot actress?

[sir_captain]

8. That's a good point

there surely does seem to be a double-standard here.

[Fenris]

14. This site is home to many double-standards.

This is just one of many. Sometimes it's best to just accept it and move on.

[sir_captain]

16. Yeah, I don't really care

Seems to me it's not really worth getting that worked up about what people say on an anonymous internet message board.

[Beware the Beast Man]

25. Sure, just move along, nothing to see here.

While dozens of women are objectified and humiliated each day in a so-called liberal blog! I'm so mad I could just spit! :histrionic:

[madrchsod]

15. here at du? no say it isn`t so......

[noiretextatique]

18. all of it is juvenile and stupid...

the incessant obsession to comment on how women look, that is. and actress at least is a public person.
same goes for men...so don't try that one again. however...it's like a 100:1 ratio. far more "hot babe" posts than the reverse.
and yet, many of you don't seem to grasp that. THAT is the double standard.

[RagingInMiami]

22. why don't you just ignore it

36. yet...you seem to be bitching in this thread and the other

:think: how is that any different? HUH? it's not.

[Kipepeo]

30. why do people ask others

to ignore sexism instead of criticizing it/pointing it out/discussing it?

[sir_captain]

26. Saying it's essentially ok

because it doesn't happen as often is a really terrible argument...

Honestly, I don't particularly give a shit about all this, but I'm curious about why you can't just admit that there's an obvious double-standard.

Have you seen me defending objectification of women?

I don't think so...

What is so difficult about admitting that no one cares when men are objectified on DU? Are the women who participated in the Bad Education actor thread all juveniles and perverts too? I doubt it...

[noiretextatique]

41. it's ALL stupid

and if it bothers you, then :wtf: don't you speak up about it? i would definitely support you...if you did. but please don't claim some double standard exists simply because women do speak up, and men do not.

45. oh...that's JUST UTTER AND COMPLETE BULLSHIT

that's like saying black people were wrong to pursue THEIR inclusion in society without making sure everyone got their rights as well. it's UTTER FUCKING NONSENSE to suggest that i need to be more concerned about the thing that happens 2 times vs. the thing that happens 2000 times.

yeah...stand up FOR YOURSELF or deal with the consequences :puke:

[sir_captain]

51. Calm down

Seriously. I'm not shouting at you, and it's pretty rude for you to shout at me like that. BUT SINCE YOU ARE SHOUTING, I WILL TOO IN THE HOPES THAT YOU ACTUALLY READ WHAT I WRITE THIS TIME. I *NEVER* SAID IT WAS WRONG TO CALL OUT SEXISM AGAINST WOMEN. ANYONE WHO WOULD SAY THAT IS DISGUSTING. I SAID IT IS WRONG TO NOT SPEAK OUT AGAINST SEXISM TOWARDS MEN UNLESS A MAN COMPLAINS FIRST, AND I STAND BY THAT. CLEAR ENOUGH FOR YOU?

[Kipepeo]

58. why are women

who are the target of a sexist society, responsible for commenting on and pointing out the few exceptions to the rule? The individual instances of objectification of men (which, when happening in a society that is not sexist towards men does not really bother me fwiw).

Are people of color responsible for speaking out against individual instances of prejudice against whites? Is the queer community now responsible for standing up for nonmarried straight couples who have been affected by the new anti-gay marriage amendments?

Sure, those things are right and good, but not when used as a way to squelch any criticism of real sexism, racism or homophobia.

'but oh! shut up you little people! what have you done for the majority lately? we won't listen to your complaints and grievances until you tell us, because you're being unfair to us!'

You do realize what you're asking, right?

Unbelievable.

[Kipepeo]

48. You just answered yourself

when you said:

"...no one cares when men are objectified on DU..."

That's kind of the point.

1) If people care when that happens they should speak up. Not many have. I don't really care, do you? On the flip side, many woman care and do speak up about threads that grossly objectify women. It should be reason enough to close a thread if enough DU members find it offensive.

2) Ask yourself why no one seems to care about the one or two threads objectifying men that you mention. Why don't men care? Maybe the difference has something to do with the fact that it's not happening in a culture that is routinely sexist towards men, where they continue to be the minority in politics and business, while still being objectified to sell a few beers, etc. Threads objectifying women (or men) are not happening in a vacuum. The offensiveness of threads objectifying women (for those who *do* find it offensive) stems from sexism that exists in society. Perhaps as many men don't find threads objectifying men offensive because they are not living in a society that is sexist towards men.

Does that make sense?

[sir_captain]

54. Fair points

And I agree that most of the threads that people get upset about ought to be closed.

Can't totally agree with your second point, though what you say makes sense. Sexism towards women is absolutely more pervasive and pernicious, but in a purely moral sense, that doesn't mean that the threads directed toward hot men are still ok. They don't particularly bother me, but that's not to say that there aren't who *are* affected by them, and perhaps are too afraid to speak up.

Really and truly, though, I'd just like to hear someone say, "yeah, drooling over Brad Pitt isn't entirely different from drooling over Julia Roberts."

[Beware the Beast Man]

9. Beast like lady in photo.

Beast no like Bush.
Beast want to touch self inappropriately.
Me want to smash all and look at lady!

[UpsideDownFlag]

13. um...it's an offshoot of sorryeverybody, isn't it?

i'd imagine the girls contributed to it. doesn't seem like they're being objectified to me, but i can understand how it would ruffle feathers.

[Richardo]

19. No. He went out to sorryeverybody and *selected* these photos...

These women are not volunteers.

Hence many here feel that it's highly inappropriate (and I agree).

[UpsideDownFlag]

21. i was under the impression it was a blog...it was a real site, not just

a buncha copied and pasted pics. hmm

[Phillycat]

20. No, this DU poster put it together on his blog.

Without their permission.

[UpsideDownFlag]

27. oh. ahem, well then. have him extend his wrist......*slap*

nt

[The Sushi Bandit]

49. You have WAY too much imagination on the things I must be doing!

... at the moment.

You have a lot of anger in you, dont you?

[Ian David]

7. Dude, this one is too young

This picture says she is too young to vote.

[RagingInMiami]

10. is that is why she's been X'd?

[JohnKleeb]

11. edited because I saw her thingie

Silly me, why the hell did he put an under 18 year old on his babe site.

[Ian David]

12. Hot Victims of Serial Killers

Hey, maybe we should start a web site for that, too!





I am being sarcastic.

[JohnKleeb]

17. odd thing about that

Bundy went after the kinda girls I like.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

34. Yeah, he should pull that one, could be trouble. (nt)

[JohnKleeb]

37. I think the whole site could be trouble honest

Its not like these are models or actresses, these are regular people. Now if you'll excuse me, I am gonna go try to get a girl who voted for Kerry to go out with me.

[noiretextatique]

44. you won't have any trouble

:hi: you are smart, nice and respectful, unlike some.

[JohnKleeb]

46. I appreciate that sentiment

I can see why some are offended, its not like these are models or actresses who are willingly asked to be put on a hot chicks site.

[Goathead]

57. Posting your picture on the internet

Didn't they kind of open themselves up for this by posting there pictures on the web? I mean it is up there for anybody to take and do what they will. I mean I am not condoning anything, but putting your picture out there, really puts your picture out there.

[JohnKleeb]

59. I know what you're saying

and I understand where you're coming from, but how would you react if someone put you on a hotties blog is what I mean.

[The Sushi Bandit]

47. Pulled... thanks!

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

50. You're welcome

I hope me doing you a favor doesn't put me in someone's shitlist.

Ahhh, what do I care?

[madrchsod]

23. interesting...hmmm seems

that orwell`s 1984 was right again.....

[TwentyFive]

24. Where is the cutoff for beauty? Isn't beauty subjective?

Beauty is defined in different ways by different people. These girls do something for some, but not for others. Certainly gay guys, older guys, straight women, etc. probably have different tastes in who they find attractive.

I've dated many women, and I've found that many 'hot looking babes' seldom develop a depth that carries them through difficult times in a relationship/friendship. Guys are always hitting on them, so why should they try to fix problems in their current relationship?

I prefer a well balanced woman. To me, the ideal woman is good looking and takes care of herself...and more importantly, has empathy and interests in things that keep a friendship/relationship interesting.

If you just want sex with a hot looking chick - hire a prostitute.

[DS1]

35. for the sake of accuracy

the hot ones are called 'escorts' ;-)

[RagingInMiami]

38. Can we simply just look at the girls on this link

Or must we hire a prostitute?

[HalfManHalfBiscuit]

28. OH MY GOD! Pictutes of women on the internet!!

I am deeply offended.

Where can I get a left-handed mouse?

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

31. Dude.

I ALWAYS use the mouse with my left hand, even thouhg I'm right-handed.

I knew there was a subconscious reason for this.

[madrchsod]

40. if i was 30+ years younger

i`d be in brazil..enough said....oh my god i`m a sexist pig!!!! no actually i`d be there to listen to the music....

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

42. I was BORN in Brazil! OMG I AM THE SEXIEST PIG OF ALL!!!

Ever since I was a fetus!

[bloodyjack]

39. How is this any different from hotornot.com?

[Guaranteed]

52. Look, guys- you're not allowed to have a sex drive, K?

If you have a sex drive, then you're a horrible person.

The End.

[The Sushi Bandit]

53. Amen!

[JohnKleeb]

[RagingInMiami]
