answer:Wow, your question is all over the place. In fact, I’m not really sure what you’re hyped up about. I think your outrage-of-the-day is that girls in bathing suits are featured on web sites, and the girls appear to be less than 18 years old? Is that what’s bugging you? Most of the rest of your post is just vituperation. There are only two issues here: legality – the girls are covered – this is not nudity. is this a ‘societal good? – I’m not sure it matters. First, there we live in a capitalistic market economy, and if they’re making $35K a month, then (a) there is a willing market for this stuff and (b) the girls (and parents/agents) are making a good salary. It’s legal commerce. There are lots of things that I disapprove of that are bought and sold every day – guns, for example. But we live in a pluralistic capital society. Second, it’s not my concern whether the girls get the money, or a website owner, or a parent, or whatever. For one thing, I’ll never know. But more to the point, why should I have a say? I don’t ask a book author how much of the $27.95 I paid for the latest best seller goes to him and how much to the publisher. I don’t ask the recording artist how much he makes off the latest album and how much goes to his studio. You can choose to be outraged by anything you want, @Hypocrisy_Central – it’s a free country. I don’t share this one.
