Topless Models In Newspapers
 
I've read a few times on here, including just a few days ago, about people's surprise that the UK allows topless (page 3) models in it's newspapers.

(Page 3) is a tabloid newspaper feature that originated in the United Kingdom in 1970 and still continues today. It consists of a photograph of a female glamour model, usually in a topless pose, and takes its name from the custom of printing the photograph on the tabloid's third page. Women who model regularly for the feature are known as Page Three girls. "Page Three" and "Page 3" are registered trademarks of News International Ltd, parent company of The Sun tabloid, but similar features are found in competing British tabloids and in other newspapers around the world.

Why does this surprise or shock some Americans in particular? (even on gfy lol)
What would happen if an American newspaper decided to have this feature? Would it be allowed or would it cause uproar?




Some nice titties in the morning is the best way to start the working day !! It seems most in the UK agree !!! :winkwink:

Haven't you heard, pictures of dead soldiers are fine but boobs are taboo on this side of the pond. Someone with caught with weed can also get more jail time than a rapist in some states.

It's all about priorities!

Nothing wrong with it until you have a situation like the other day with the lady and the playboy chairs.

Isn't that the same place that just put someone in jail for singing Kung Fu Fighting because it is racist? Every country has some assbackwards laws and customs that should be done away with.

LOL. I remember the 'Countdown' to her 16th birthday !

Each day she took an item of clothing off, until she was in panties and a bra, then it was her 16th, and the top came off!

It was a national UK celebration !

Boy, times HAVE CHANGED lol

good old sun for thast.

posting pics of 16 year old toplesas on there 16th bithday then next page a story about pedo's.

though the law has changed and you need to be 18 today.

odly i am against page 3.

the reason being is that (while the sun insists on natural and not fake boobs) i feel its led to thousands of women feeling that only big boobs are sexy and need to have boob jobs.

i also find it odd that the sun is a 'family' newspaper and prints topless pics.

i would not wish my doughter (if i had one) to see these pis each day. not becase i am against porn, but becase i would not want her to have a complex about her body.

in fact i have written a few timews to jacky smith (i think thats the mp's name) saying that. a few years ago shew was on tv, and i sent in an email saying i did porn but felt page 3 gave women a complex. they read it out, with the remark saying they were not sure if it was a fake email.

i have no problems with topless or nude in the sunday sport (if its still going) as thats more a comic.

if page 3 had different types of women, to me that would not be a problem. but it tends to be only while big boobed blond women. to me it should also have small chested women as they are just as sexy. and alt girls too.

The New York Times daily circulation 916,911
The Sun's daily circulation is 3,001,822

One has nudity, one doesn't :P

Used to pay a lot of money for a single shot. I got some into The Sport and Sunday Sport, which didn't pay so well.

The Sun paid $2,000 and up for a single shot. Back in the 90s a few shooters would take 5-7 girls to Spain, Portugal, Canaries and shoot content. One of the shooters was a guy called Mick Miles. Would watch him work and it was a revelation. His technique was flawless. Lighting, shooting, directing models.

He would shoot the 1 or 2 girls he took on the trip in the afternoon, work for a few hours and make $10,000 and more. Page 3, Calenders, Advertising. Great market.

Harry Ormesher was another one. I think he must be dead now, he was 60 when I knew him. Always tuned up a meets with the hottest girls. Great guy as well.

Hehe. From wiki:


Quote:

The Sun and other British tabloids have also provoked controversy by featuring girls as young as 16 as topless models, when it was legal to do so. Samantha Fox, Maria Whittaker, Debee Ashby, and others began their topless modelling careers in The Sun at that age, while the Daily Sport was even known to count down the days until it could feature a teenage girl topless on her 16th birthday, as it did with Linsey Dawn McKenzie in 1994, amongst others. Controversy over 16-year-old Page Three girls ended when the Sexual Offences Act 2003 raised the minimum age for topless modelling to 18.


Linsey is still one of my faves to this day !!!! :thumbsup

you can see same pics in my country newspapers, tits are ok, pussy not

RuthB 01-05-2012 02:43 PM

Three cheers for page 3!!

It never used to bother me when I'd read the Sun before school. It sure didn't give me a complex either...

Sometimes it's just nice to keep things light, particularly when a lot of news is depressing. The Sun was always a more 'happy-go-lucky' newspaper, that I recall anyways. Silly wild stories from abroad, and other interesting tidbits.

Man, anyone remember back when Piers Morgan used to be the Entertainment guy for the Sun? How times change!

What's wrong with waking up, missing your wife at work & opening page3 when enjoying a lovely sandwich... now come to think about it, that would have been 1 sandwich to eat, and 1 to be dreaming about :thumbsup

lol. While I admittedly don't pay too much attention to the flyover states, I can still guarantee you that he's full of shit.

Does The Mirror still do the page 7 fellas for the ladies?

Unfortunately when I was growing up my dad used to get The Telegraph so never really got to see much of page 3, unless it was a sneaky peak when I was doing my paper round.
