sure pretty is pretty. ass is good. blah, blah, blah.

on the other hand i also like to see people admired for more than what they look like.

personally, i've met/been with/seen TONS of physically attractive women who (in my opinion) had little else or were lacking in other areas i feel are JUST AS important -- if not more. therefore, i'm no longer impressed by look alone.

going back to the point of videos and such

i like videos that have a little more depth than "lets parade a buch of buts past the camera". particularly at a time when the large majority of hihhop video have little more than that.

>I mean- you say you dont
>want to just see her
>ass -

did i say that?

>but are you
>saying you no longer like
>ass or that you must
>control yourself in that fashion
>so as not to endorse
>that pathology?

i'm saying that if reducing and female to only her ass is a disservice to her and me.

>Does watching a video- or even
>liking it count as such
>a sanction or taking part?

i think so

>if so does denying that
>you like it resolve that?

not necessarily. on the other hand, if i get tired of booty videos all the time -- the easiest thing is to not watch them

>Can you condition yourself not
>to like it?

one could i guess, but i have no desire to in this case

>but can you witness
>things as part of that
>greater reality?

sure

>Do you have to see a shaking ass
>beyond its supposed detriment to
>enjoy it- can you accept
>the negativty that is involved
>with it yet appreciate it
>for its positivity?

one can do/justify however one wants. personally, i DO think that there are ramifications to a constant parade of materialism, sexuality.

to answer your last question, i guess it goes back to weighing the positive vs. the negative. in other words, which is more important: getting my jollies from seeing a behind (and whatever other positives may exist) or any damage that may result from that image being shown.

>When you say "certain" things are
>you meaning things that you
>find detrimental or negative?

what are you talking about here, i'm losing you

>If so when you insist that
>there is nothing positive about
>it

did i say that?
