RADIO DEBATE WITH FHM TODAY

That's right. On the news-special, right after the sequence about Afghanistan, it was time for the butt-battle between FHM (men's magazine) and me. My point was, of course, that FHM should have seized their butt-off as an opportunity to embrace a wider variety of models than they usually do. Models that actually have an ass. Because, even if they say that they use normal girls, and even if they have had me on the cover, the fact that most of their models are superskinny, with higher morgages on their boobs than on their education, can't be escaped. I also wanted to say that I don't really mind, and neither does the women I feel that I speak for, the skinny plastic-woman, but this fenomanon has to be treated as a fetish, just as any other extremity. We love a lot of different fetishes, but we know to not let them dominate our lives. I also wanted to say that there are SO many kinds of super sexy girls and women, so why does FHM feel the need to be so single-minded, or should I say skinny-minded? They are a very powerfull institution, being one of the best-selling men's magazines in Norway, and they should use their power to show sexy women that strut! Skinny, medium and curvy! All kinds of sexy godesses!

Keep in mind, when I say "skinny" I don't mean anorectic, and when I say "curvy", I don't mean obese. I'm not trying to be too extreme here, so you men can keep your guard down ;) We want you to enjoy sexy women.

Well, I know this debate might have sounded pretty stupid right after the Afghanistan thing... And I was so afraid to sound like a whiney bitch. I'm really not a whiney bitch, except whem I'm PMS-ing, but it's so easy to sound negative, when you're supposed to be serious and have a sort of a feminist agenda. We all know how easy it is to pass those feminists off as bitches, right? Not fair really, but still... I was also afraid that my brain would turn completely blank as soon as the scary News-intro on the radio station started. And it sort of did... 

I have always despiced debating. I've done a lot of debating against old-school feminists and also against some religious folks. Usually, when I do normal radio or tv, I think it's fun and easy and wonderfull. But when it's serious stuff, like debates, I totally freak out. Even if I know all the answers and arguments on beforehand, and I could probably debate anyone, hanging upside down on a stripper's pole with 7 shots of tequila in my body, something just happens to me when it's a debate on radio or tv. Like today, even if I knew my opponent, the FHM guy, and he is a pretty nice guy, I just totally choked. This happens: I stutter, my mouth turns dry, and I forget just about every thought I've ever thought. And, of course, that sometimes makes sound a little dumb... Yes, it sucks. Well, luckily, some of my auto-pilot still works, and I manage to say a few smart things, but everything still feels so horrible! I'm not in touch with myself at all, and I feel like a huge failure! I hate it! This is why I've started to say no every time I'm asked to debate. 

Well, today, I felt that I had to say yes. I felt this way, 'cause nobody has really taken on this issue in Norway before, except for the boring, sourpuss feminists that are just too extreme. (There it is again, that self-righteous judgement... Yes, I do it too.) I thought it was about time that a hot, juicy girl stood up for the rest of us and put her foot down.  Cause we are pretty cool girls! We love men, and we like their magazines too. We love our femininity and sexuality.  Also, may I say; we are fairly frisky i the bedroom... And we have a lot of different types of bodies, from skinny to curvy and everything in between. What we have in common, is that we're all hot! So why does FHM feel the need to only display skinny girls? I don't know... This makes me sound as if I don't like skinny girls, and that is not true. They are beautifull, and my closest stripper colluege is actually a quite small girl with silicone boobs. (www.lindawilde.no) And she is georgeos! And so am I. And so is SO many other girls, that have other kinds of bodies. Would it not be wonderfull if men's magazines could diplay naked women in an empowering manner that makes us admire the models in loving ways? In ways that inspires other women to explore and love themselves and play around with their sexuality and femininity? Oh, fuck me, it sounds fantastic! :) Diversity is divine! 

PS. And just so you know: I would NEVER want to take away pictures of naked girls in men's magazines. Naked girls rock!
