And I certainly agree that page 3 is far from the worst available, but perhaps its real perniciousness lies simply in its being the most broadly available.<br /><br />A low grade, widespread corruption may be more damage than more intense but more localised ills.<br /><br />In any case, I feel slightly awkward trying to take a position on feminist issues - there are many women doing it far better than I ever could. But page 3 does seems an unnecessary objectification - or at the very least a trivialisation - of a person. We're no better for having it, and I feel would be better off if it went.<br /><br />Best wishes<br /><br />DavidDavid Beesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00393977902379776532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7520303675367700778.post-6515378473708842652012-09-13T01:32:24.167+01:002012-09-13T01:32:24.167+01:00What a nicely written piece.

On balance, I think that there is a lot worse that needs cleaning up before I will give any concern over Page 3. Whether from female exploitation or young eyes viewing naked newsprint, the constant stream of hardcore porn that today's youth are daily fed by computer, phone and the like is a pernicious disease that is infesting the minds of those emosionally too immature to deal with it. Daily, experts in Child Mental Health and various welfare support services are dealing with severely damaged children. Often males of 11 and 12 having experimented with girls of 9, 10 and 11 yrs old.<br />Page 3 never created these problems. Not even in the puritanical minds of its opponants.
