Stop Page 3 Girls campaign

evesham

so.....a lady has started a campaign to stop the Sun running page 3 girl images.

She claims that the majority of men she has spoken to dont even look at the page 3 girls.

She also noted that in the whole paper, the largest female image is that of a young (often just 16 years old) girl with her boobs out!

quite interesting actually. is it femminism as the girls choose to do the pics or is it objectifying women and adding to the growing numbers of body dysmorphia among young girls?

It's a beautiful picture of a delightful young lady to warm the cockles of ya heart.... Especially in these troubled times.....

Some people seriously need to get a life.... Or at least leave the rest of us to get on with ours....

How does she know what other people want to look at?

Has anyone started a petition against do-gooders minding their own business?

I think the age limit was put up to 18 a few years ago, no longer do you have images of 16 year old Sam Fox's or Katy Price's these days.

Can't say I really have an opinion one way or the other on this and I rarely read the sun. It's not like they are made to do get their boobs out. I don't really see any harm in it though....

"I think the age limit was put up to 18 a few years ago, no longer do you have images of 16 year old Sam Fox's or Katy Price's these days."

18 is the legal minimum age fit anyone to appear naked or semi naked in any paper, magazine or 'adult' production film.

If you don't like page 3 in the Sun, buy another paper!

I've just watched the woman on breakfast tv, it's a complete joke!

Yeah you can't take topless photos of 16 or 17 year olds now, even with parental permission like was allowed before.

So the girls are all 18+, doing it of their own volition so if this campaigner doesn't want to see them, why doesn't she just not buy the sun.

Print media is doomed anyway.

I wouldnt buy the Sun if you paid me, and i kind of think each to their own, but i think there is a problem with the casual sexualisation of young women.These papers are just left lying around and when children see them they wont make an adult assumption about context, which is why we as grown-ups should, it should be left as top shelf, adult stuff.

Many have tried and many have failed!

To be honest did we associate page 3 and body worries/eating disorders before the 21st century? No not really! If anyone or anybody should its the likes of the celebrities that whore themselves and their lives in these papers. I doubt many youngsters bother with newspapers in this day and age as we live in a world of social media. Porn is accesible to all with the click of a button.

Harry. Caterick would have been happy to recieve that through his letter box. Did you ruffle the echo between your hands to soften it up. The main reason I'm posting is I've discovered a new word . Dysmorphia wow where's my dictionary

Over the rainbow, under the bridge

Used to work in a newsagents. Never liked how it was so easy to access by kids. And, if its not sexist, why isn't there a page 3 boy with his tackle out as easily accessible?

And yes, I know kids have smartphones and can access porn but that is a specious argument. We don't have to make it THAT easy!!

It's the 21st century ffs. Time for it to stop. It's a hang up from the 60s and 70s which had that same mindset towards women which prevailed when Savile, et al, were doing their predatory thing and getting away with it.

Firstly...how many guys would admit to this woman that they did have a look? From the sounds of it she'd have made it clear she didn't approve before she did this little survey (of probably her husband, son, brother in law & dad!!).

I have no issue with Page 3 or anything like that. The women I have seen on Page 3 have always had realistic 'healthy' figures...slim but with shape.

If she does get her way though then will she be gunning for Heat magazine's 'Torso of the Week' next...can't be fair to allow all those men to be objectified if the guys aren't allowed to have a look at a slim pretty girl who will have to be over 18? x

Fraid I agree, find it kind of shocking in this day and age when you really sit down and think about it

Of course it is sexist.But with regard to your remarks concerning the 60s and the 70s, as someone who was very much a part of the counter-culture of that period, the attitudes you are talking about were being pushed out in those times. They came back with a vengeance in the eighties when the forces of reaction mounted their counter attack on the forces of progression. I think, incidentally, that the page 3 girl only appeared in 1980. She certainly wasn't there in 1977 when I was all over page 3!

The Sun is a vile rag that barely attempts to hide it's racist, homophobic and sexist slants on society. As View says Page 3 is well past it's sell by date. The fact that they continue to sexually objectify women to pander to their readers sums them up perfectly.

I find it odd that The Sun take such a strong _iew on paedophilia when as others have said it not so long ago had 16 year old girls topless, and even had a countdown to Charlotte Church's 16th birthday.

To me personally I don't need a campaign to ban page 3, I treat sun readers with a certain degree of disdain anyway and _iew the paper with total contempt and that will not change if there is a page 3 model or not.

Although the debate of page 3 leaves me cold, I think they should give this woman what she wants....

Then instead of the paper showing a daily page 3 girl....they could show a daily image of all manner of everyday folk in a state of semi-nudity,,,

Hey I'd look.....

I agree with you of course, but it isn't at all odd that The Sun shouts the loudest about paedophilia when it constantly objectivises women. The Right are always the most hypocritical.

Whether it's caused any direct harm will always be debatable but the inherent sexism and the objectification of women by the country's topselling newspaper is wrong and can only set back equality.

Out of interest, does anyone know if page 3 is a uniquely british phenomena or do the tabloids in other countries have similar?

I'm slightly torn on this issue.

Astute forum regulars may have noticed I get ever so slightly irritable over the objectification of women. Judging women on looks, and criticising those who don't measure up, also tends to irk me just a touch.

Ultimately though, why pick on The Sun? Objectification of women happens every day in so many ways, and is regarded so differently by individual people, it could never be legislated against.

Mainstream media and the internet are much more accessible to children and way more likely, IMO, to cause body dysmorphia. Are we to try to ban celebrities from being too thin?

Stopping Page 3 girls is such a small drop in the ocean that it almost seems like harassment of The Sun.

The Sun are currently celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Page 3 girl. That makes it 1972. I remember them when I was a kid. And the forces of progression may well have been beginning in the 70s but as late as 79 I was putting up with sexist crap from male teachers about us female students. I was even told by my careers adviser to forget about going to uni. A girl like me would be better off learning secretarial skills.

I stand by what I said.

wonder if the sun would investigate its own actions 20years ago and probably find much of whats been happening in the recent BBC issues on their own front door...

Of course I liked the page 3 growing up..i love womens boobs and pretty women...

However, the double standards do come to mind, men are being routinely objectified(to be sexy u have to have a gym body)-U might not see that in the Sun, but its spread elsewhere in womens magazines etc

anyway back to the sun or other tabloids..if they knew they could get away with fab styled pics, they fucking would...however...they'd rather just class us all as negative termed deviants...

hypocrisy and greed..thats all it is.

A girl recently threw herself under a train after accessing pro-anorexia and self harm websites.

This is just one of many headlines over recent years alerting us to the danger of pro-anorexia sites.

I did search for the same but involving page 3 images, couldn't find any.

Whilst I agree Page 3 is dated, I think we need to be focusing on bigger issues for our teens futures.

If you were against page 3 wouldn't it just be easier to not buy the paper. Or do people have to force their morals and _iews on other people instead.

Myself? I don't but or read the sun so i don't really give a shit but i'm guessing it's probably harmless. Its a lot better than some of the front pages on the sport and they're on full _iew on the bottom shelf

Seems familar to campaigning by woman called mary shitehouse or was it whitehouse lol.

End of day and until i hear evidence to contrary the ladies being photographed are happy to do it.

TBH I couldn't give a toss as I don't buy it.

However, if that's all this woman has to worry about then she should thank her lucky stars.

Some people have no home, no food, no means of finding either, they're trying to avoid abuse, running away from violent situations with their children, they're freezing unable to afford fuel bills...FFS

and she's concerned about a picture of some lass on the inside page of a rag.

Maybe she could direct her energy to somewhere that needs it.

Inserting a Savile comment as an indication that everything in the 60s and 70s had it's roots in paedophilia is doing that era a severe injustice.

The girls who appear on Page 3 are not forced to do it, they're not even coerced into it and they see it as a stepping stone to fame and fortune in showbiz. If they are happy taking their tops off and being photographed then who is to say they shouldn't do it?

I think, incidentally, that the page 3 girl only appeared in 1980. She certainly wasn't there in 1977 when I was all over page 3!"

On 17 November 1970, Sun editor Larry Lamb celebrated the tabloid's first anniversary by publishing a photograph of 20-year-old German model Stephanie Rahn in her "birthday suit." She was photographed from the side, sitting nude in a field with one of her breasts visible.

Good job she doesn't buybthe Sunday sport! She'd have a heart attack.

Theses girls see it as a route to other modelling and I guess it looks good on their cv.

Personally I don't mind it, but they're all too skinny forme.

What I find funny and slightly hypocritical, is the fact that the people talking out strongly on this subject have pictures of their wives on display doing far worse than any page 3 pose.

Ok, this is an adult site and not a daily rag, but anyone can find porn easier on the web than any newspaper, no matter what age, sex or _iews they may have.

I haven't read all the comments but I think it's more children, both girls and boys being subjected to it and thinking you can only be sexy if you're a size zero with massive boobs.

Each girl in page 3 makes that choice herself and that's fine by me, I've done a little glamour modelling myself before having children, but having a daughter, I do want her to be secure in her body image, so I can see it from both sides.

"so.....a lady has started a campaign to stop the Sun running page 3 girl images.

She claims that the majority of men she has spoken to dont even look at the page 3 girls.

She also noted that in the whole paper, the largest female image is that of a young (often just 16 years old) girl with her boobs out!

quite interesting actually. is it femminism as the girls choose to do the pics or is it objectifying women and adding to the growing numbers of body dysmorphia among young girls?

TBH I couldn't give a toss as I don't buy it.

However, if that's all this woman has to worry about then she should thank her lucky stars.

Some people have no home, no food, no means of finding either, they're trying to avoid abuse, running away from violent situations with their children, they're freezing unable to afford fuel bills...FFS

and she's concerned about a picture of some lass on the inside page of a rag.

Maybe she could direct her energy to somewhere that needs it. "

She is worried about the wider implications of page 3. Body dismorphia, self harming, perhaps suicide. Not to mention the girls being led into harder, more extreme types of modelling etc

All this 'she should be worried about this that and the other' talk irritates me. What are YOU doing about these serious issues? Have you started any campaigns to help the homeless, hungry and cold of the nation?

It's not hypocritical at all. The fact that you can find porn on the internet is irrelevant; page 3 normalises women as sexual objects. The message it gives is - here's everyday stuff: news, weather, sport, women taking their clothes off for men to look at.

It's a funny thing this thread, we have looked through all the comments and yes we do agree that the page three thing is a bit old hat but that's about it, it's hardly an issue to make your blood boil yes there will always be glamour photos and there will always be young girl and boys for that matter that think of it as a good way to make a living! There will always be young women starring in porn movies. But here we are on a swingers site with some very interesting comments about the rights and wrongs of breasts printed on paper, surely we should complain and police our own place more with the growing number of teenagers that seem to pop up in a place where the images and thoughts of a much more extreme nature are more than readily available? We all did naughty things when we were teenagers and probably heard of swinging and threesomes but it was a mentioned in hushed tones kind of affair, so how far do you take censorship? If boobs on paper become banned today how long would it be before our way of life becomes outlawed? Surely the easiest way to get something to stop is to vote with your feet and not buy what offends you? And in the end surely the daily sport is a far more offensive rag by far!!

It's not a difficult concept is it? This is a swinging site where people are on here to meet for sex, the sun is a newspaper. You hardly need to be one of life's great thinkers to work out why one is a perfectly acceptable place to find picture of topless women and the other isn;t... Seriously would people think that it was appropriate for a TV news presenter to be topless? No of course not.

As for people saying just don't buy it, again spectacularly missing the point.

To be honest we believe trying to ban it abit petty, whats next erotic art? porn? we look back in history and theres some wonderfull paintings and sculptors that are semi nude or naked so whats the difference?? the kama sultra shows graphic pics shall we bann that aswell,

Also like mentioned advertising lets ban all ads for purfumes aftershaves and many more, just look at the lynx ad as they make people look like sex symbols and are selling their products on top of sexuality.

Just stupid to be honest its not doing any arm its not victamizing anyone

I've always believed in a free press, and I'm against any kind of censorship.

If they print something you don't like, don't read it.

If they print something that's not true, is libelous or slanderous then they'll have to answer to the law of the land, just as you or I would.

I'm not a fan of The Sun, so I choose not to read it.

However, I'll never petition to censor it or any other rag

QUOTING Kate Moss from the Guardian just 3 days ago.....

also included a topless photograph, appeared in the Face magazine in 1990 and launched Moss's career, though two decades on she does not remember the shoot as a happy one.

"I see a 16-year-old now, and to ask her to take her clothes off would feel really weird," she says in an inter_iew with Vanity Fair. "But they were like: If you don't do it, then we're not going to book you again. So I'd lock myself in the toilet and cry and then come out and do it. I never felt very comfortable about it."

Moss also tells the magazine that she sought medical help for anxiety two years later. "Nobody takes care of you mentally. There's a massive pressure to do what you have to do."

being rather new to photography, and I'm sure even lots of amateur/professional photographers would agree...I'd never imagine that many years ago anyone would be treated with dignity and respect...especially at a young woman."Get the tits out, do this do that,take ur money and fuck off...or...what U doing later?winkwink, I've lotsa "

Agreed.

Although the mainstream media in general (that includes the TV news, not justs the tabloid papers) is out of control.

Instead of simply informing us, they feel they have the right to tell us all how we should think.

Personally, I don't buy any "news"papers, as I can find out the football results on the internet, but The Sun is definitely the smelliest turd in a big stinking bag of shit.

I dont wish to control the reading choice of others if anyone is stupid enough to buy that excuse for a paper then go ahead.

For the record i have not bought a paper for a long time now as they all seemed to follow the Suns lead and turned the news into a farce eg XFactor front page every Monday 2 soldiers killed little column inside somewhere.

Murdoch already controls the truth within his media empire the man is a dirty lying lowlife and a pathetic excuse for a human being.

It was just a throw away line I realy dont want to control what others read but I do wish there was some control over the way papers are allowed to print any made up stories and before you say there already is only a few very high profile stories are contested the majority of journalistic lies are let go.

I think very little of what you write is 'tongue in cheek', it's your right to have your own beliefs but it's no ones right to dictate to others what they should be allowed to read.

Hell no I wouldn't ban it as its the only source of anything close to politics and social awareness for some even if many of the facts it portraits are inaccurate. I don't take it seriously personally but its aimed at a section of society that isn't me but I wouldn't deprive them of the pleaser as I wouldn't try to get Viz or Batman comics banned. If it entertains some then fair enough but its when they take the papers comments as facts it worries me just a little.

I think its far from ill-informed generalisations anyone who really thinks that the sun has any intellectual properties is sadly misguided. It has a target demographic, it avoids using big words, most of its content is biased and isn't aimed to tax the brain cells and lets face it news international and its ex sister paper TNOTW shed a lot of light on what they think of the general public. I think the ill-informed tag fits the publications readers well though as in general that's what they are if they take information within it as factual.

You have wrongly assumed that all readers of The Sun read all of the content within it. From politics, to celeb shagathons, to topical issues of the day, to tv soap trivia, The Sun covers quite a broad range of subjects and as someone who buys The Sun I can tell you that I do not read all of it. I buy it for the back five pages as The Sun's sports reporting is second to none. Their sports journalists have demonstrated time and again over the years that they have the most acute senses in football reporting and a network of contacts that confirms whether a story is genuine or not.

I'm not talking about Ashley Cole banging some bint or Rooney shagging a prossie. I'm talking about trasnfer rumours the Sun's sports writers get to hear about long before anyone else. It is for that reason alone I buy the Sun (or read it online if I haven't bought it). The rest of it nothing more than a snapshot of what's going on in the world, and if it's a quiet news day for The Sun then it's a quiet news day for all the others too, and then they do what gets most people's cages rattling - they make it up, but then so do all the others (with the exception of maybe The Times/FT).

All I have to say about sun reporters is Hillsborough. For anyone to even think they are good reporters really need to sit on it rather than talk out of it as they clearly don't and its plainly insulting to many insinuating they do.

The inquiry has identified who was responsible for those lies and the Sun's main feature writers swallowed the lies and printed them, with the Editor's agreement. It was not the sports writers, who have proven themselves to be the best networked football writers in the business.

I've read the sports section in The Sun for years. By your own admission you haven't read it for years. I think I am in the better position to know how accurate the sports writers for The Sun are.

If you are so against the Sun because of the Hillsborough tragedy then it makes sense that you don't by it. That is 'by your own admission'. Refute or confirm: do you buy The Sun? because if you don't buy it it shouldn't make one jot of difference to you what's printed within it, either Page 3 or the Sports coverage (which I still maintain is the best football coverage in the newspaper business)

Wishy get over your Kelvin C*nt mack'Im a twat' enzie fixation! Youre looking a wee bit silly defending someone who has already held his hands up to supposedly beng spoon fed absolute bollocks about Hllsborough

Its obvious from your posts you do not like scousers, but have a bit of decorum, and admit you were wrong about Hilsboroiugh, the same as your beloved paper was. Just try and get over the whole man u v liverpool thing. Hillsborough was/IS about football, not rivalries, so get over yourself, like Fergie did!

Back to OP. The page 3 doesnt bother me, as obviously, I do not buy the scum, and also, if it was n the Independant, it still wouldnt bother me, as these girls have choices. If I was young and had a great figure, yes I'd consider it.

I only know one scouser personally, and he lives with my ex-wife and is a pretty decent chap. I've been to Liverpool once and never had a reason to go there again. I couldn't give a toss about the city but neither do I wish it to fall into the sea.

As for Hillsborough, I weatched it unfolding on TV at the time, and at that time I was a lot younger and didn't read any newspaper so I have no recollection of what The Sun printed about it, nor any other newspaper, so please get off your high horse when you clearly know absolutely nothing about me. Ta.

Sheesh!

Ok, basic English lesson.

Context: a single word does not a quotation make. Taking something 'out of context' is what you have done.

Referring to 'Hillsborough' without going into detail about the events still isn't a quotation. It is a mention only. A reference, no less.

I have stated that I believe The Sun's sports coverage (for all sports but mainly football, which includes more than articles about Manchester United or Liverpool, or Chelsea, or Arsenal, or Man City.. can you see a pattern emerging here?) ... is second to none in the sports reporting part of the newspaper business. The Sun's writers have accurately printed major transfer movements long before their competitors.

Now, try and put aside your personal feelings about The Sun and understand basic English.

. Far from out of context. As I said, look at your previous posts about the Scum/ Hillsborough/scousers/Liverpool etc.

Do me a favour and look at your previous posts on the Scum etc.

I am well qualfied in understanding English, ta very much, so dont try and patroniise me. Oh, I also have the paperwork to prove it. Unlike you, obvously, who sticks to the pure shite the scum pours out. Have fun, I am not in the mood for you or others to try and patronise me.

That was a different thread and a different discussion. You raised Liverpool in this thread, not me. I didn't raise the subject of Hillsborough either. I said I believed the Sun's sports writers to be the best in the business, and that's all I said.

The Sun also has the best tits in the business too. And that's what THIS thread is about. Page 3.

If life is so bad home wise then there are more productive things you could do rather than on line abuse.

You nothing of my home life. Mentioning it is a form of bullying (I'm too thickskinned to be affected by it fortunately), so please, if you must join in the 'debate' keep my personal life out of it. Ta."

And what is lying about what someone else has said?

I am still waiting for you to find where I said it or apologise neither of which you are able to do. If you are looking for a bully find a mirror it may help.

Hmmm dont think it was me who rased Hllsborough.

Check your facts before accusing others! Oh thats right, you are a scum fan/reader

Get your facts right!"

...and what was it you accused Whistler of, without being actually certain he was guilty of it, to the extent that you apologised before he even got the chance to correct you!

And dont try that I am bullying you or accusing me of bullying Wishy.

It may have worked on others, but I could also interprate you saying all the above to bully me!

"I have no opinion to express - never having bought it.

as I recall Whistler, you too seemed to soak up the press in regards to Hillsborough and blamed the Liverpool fans, if. Am wrong, I so apologise."

I'm not bullying you. I'm quoting you.

Well if you were to ask me it was an intimidating comment and a desperate attempt to climb out of a hole. I have half a mind to believe his comments are fabrications after being on the receiving end or untruthful remarks.

Well, we didn't ask you. And it was a quote. She posted it, I quoted it. That's how forums work.

No its pretty much bullying but if you want to quote how about trying to quote where I commented on what I read and don't. You could even make something up if you want to save face.
