it's almost comical to me that the solutions to most of the 'isms' (sexism, racism, homophobia, etc) really all boil down to peeps treating others with inherent dignity and respect and not acting like assholes. for real, it's not that fucking complicated but as a species we fail miserably. often.

hello. i guess this is where i dont understand. i dont think its inherently wrong that the article is misfocused on her looks. are you saying that had they mentioned her accomplishment, its not offensive anymore? what specifically about focusing on appearance is wrong?
its not only a natural thing men do, women do it too & often bully women who have big boobs, for example. Kate upton gets killed for her torso. women hated hanna davis SI cover, too much navel. Why was that a problem?
i rarely see beautiful people of either gender spending time with fat or ugly anybody. are they wrong to be so judgemental?
& can women really expect all men to act like metro-sexuals? at what point do we acknowledge the natural reactions of both sexes to appearance?
