Will it enable me to block all the annoying spam that I've been getting recently? <BR/>In this case I'm specifically talking about the porn industry, particularly that segment of it that has a penchant for Japanese teenage girls in school uniforms. Not that the ad industry doesn't suck too - it does. This particular brand of stupidity can pretty much be blamed on porn, though. <BR/>Tuomas - agreed. In this case it manages to hit both sexism and racism, since Devon Aoki's fembot assassin character literally does not have a single line in the whole movie. Hey, normally I LIKE pretty girls in leather, but is there any good reason why they couldn't let her talk?Cassandra Sayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775317504418213521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14234730.post-1130648992922380012005-10-29T22:09:00.000-07:002005-10-29T22:09:00.000-07:00I suppose I'm a bit sceptical about the media usag...I suppose I'm a bit sceptical about the media usage of the word "controversial".

Porn tends to follow least-common-denominator ideas of style and attractiveness, not set them. Historically, the U.S. "Adult Film" industry is about as financially "Conservative" as you can get, new "trends" generally come from overseas.<BR/><BR/>Unless, when you say "porn industry," you're talking about the "<A HREF="http://twistyfaster.typepad.com/i_blame_the_patriarchy/2005/10/top_uk_ad_exec_.html" REL="nofollow">Paris Hilton, covered in soap-suds-as-blatant-metaphor and fellating a cheeseburger</A>" film industry, which would mean we were talking about the same thing, and I apologize.StealthBadgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03109211831859952231noreply@blogger.com
