Think about leading ladies--not actresses cast as eye candy or specifically for T&A, but the actresses usually cast as the leads in television or movies. How many of them are strikingly busty? On TV right now I can think of Kat Dennings on "2 Broke Girls". Maybe Jenna Fischer from "The Office". Movies--Salma Hayek, who was a borderline A-lister for a while. Lindsay Lohan's out of work.Vidorhttp://sgsg.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-8139500962897575202012-01-19T05:29:34.723-08:002012-01-19T05:29:34.723-08:00How do the men on Modern Family actually concentra...How do the men on Modern Family actually concentrate when shooting scenes with Sofia?sprenghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10889061538449897071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-84763499210596580112012-01-18T19:08:58.807-08:002012-01-18T19:08:58.807-08:00In case anyone wonders who the person was who watc...In case anyone wonders who the person was who watched Pink Lady & Jeff (the ratings weren't entirely 0.0), that would be me.<br /><br />(I didn't say I enjoyed it.)Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02753360146107174303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-76586299321713396572012-01-18T18:22:50.076-08:002012-01-18T18:22:50.076-08:00@Johnny Walker, Biddy Bytes is riffing on the fact...@Johnny Walker, Biddy Bytes is riffing on the fact that the word "tit" comes from the word "teat."

In the first game she was heralded as a real hero, a female Indiana Jones. A few short years later, her breasts had swelled and players were rewarded with different costumes to parade her around in as they played.<br /><br />I can't imagine Harrison Ford appreciating his hero being given the same treatment.<br /><br />So, yes, this all gets very tiresome after a while, and quite frankly, embarrassing. It would be nice if just <i>once</i> there was a female character who behaved somewhat like a real woman, rather than a lonely male's fantasy.<br /><br />It's not like our culture is gasping for sexualised images of women, after all. Last time I checked, an endless supply of porn was just a click away.<br /><br />Unlike your good self, Ken, it seems most video game producers aren't all that interested in making three-dimensional female characters.<br /><br />The one bright light at the end of the tunnel is this recent groundswell for change.Johnny Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07157630082355224244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-33018722194988782462012-01-17T06:37:20.459-08:002012-01-17T06:37:20.459-08:00From a TV Guide advertisemnt:
