I wanted to send out this quick little note for two reasons:
1. One of you sent me a question about whether or not I was saying in my most recent post that it was illegal for the owners of SG to remove images from the site in 2005. I wanted to clarify for any of you that might have been wondering about this also. I did not mean to say that this action was illegal. My argument was based purely on the fact that the site promoted itself as a place where its models were in control of the content in their photo spreads for the purpose of presenting alternative beauty and situations that made them feel most beautiful. Removing the photos was infringement upon the creativity and freedom the models were supposed to be able to have on the site. That's really what made the site so popular to begin with. So in my opinion, that's not only morally wrong, but it allows pornography to still be controlled by men and prevents women's interests from being in the porn world. I hope that this helps you all understand my position in the last post.
2. For any of you who might be reading the blog on a daily basis (if any of you are), I wanted to let you know that this evening's post will be the last for the next few days. It's going to be a busy weekend of studying and paper writing in the college scene. I hope to be posting again by Monday or Tuesday.
Thank you for reading!
