I was floored when I saw that she had been voted Sexiest Woman Alive in 2006. <BR/><BR/>Natalie Portman, on the other hand, can eat crackers in my bed anytime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-67301962109867896842008-02-15T01:47:00.000-08:002008-02-15T01:47:00.000-08:00actually, i really find scarlett attractive at all...actually, i really find scarlett attractive at all... ergh. yuck. bleh. blah.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-62039131445397546272008-02-14T04:46:00.000-08:002008-02-14T04:46:00.000-08:00A-friggin-men.

I mean, tell the world over and over and over again that the girl is hot, and eventually there are enough male monkies out there who'd believe it, especially if the boobs are big enough, and the girl seems a bit dumb.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-14056745553011448542008-02-13T16:18:00.000-08:002008-02-13T16:18:00.000-08:00"But the idea that it was somehow shocking that wo..."But the idea that it was somehow shocking that women with differing personalities could actually get along was downright insulting."<BR/><BR/>Funny, I ran across this in business a few years ago when another woman and I were assigned to travel together to rollout a new software program across the country for a Fortune 500 company.<BR/><BR/>We never gave it a thought but found out halfway into our travel schedule that everyone else in our office were giving it plenty of thought...practically placing bets to which one of us would end up killing the other and when.<BR/><BR/>Our life experiences were completely opposite. Our physical appearances were completely opposite. Our personalities were completely opposite. Our sexualities were completely opposite.<BR/><BR/>But what we had in common was complete respect for each other and appreciation for each other's strengths. We learned from each other and supported each other.<BR/><BR/>Instead of killing each other during the trip as our male and female co-workers had expected...we became each other's best friend. What a gift.<BR/><BR/>So you are right, it is insulting to think that women with differences cannot get along and would end up in some sort of catfight. Yet, is not just a male perspective on women...other women have this poor perception as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-11020753342154798482008-02-13T12:59:00.000-08:002008-02-13T12:59:00.000-08:00That film looks so shockingly crap from the traile...That film looks so shockingly crap from the trailer (and early reviews seem to confirm that theory).

She doesn't radiate a genuine sex appeal, and her acting is appalling (check our her inability to force out tears in A Song for Bobby Long--I almost cried because I felt sorry for her--all that mustering and forcing and NOT ONE SINGLE TEAR). She should've sniffed onions before the shoot.<BR/><BR/>Natalie's breast size does NOT have anything to do with her being different. What a ridiculous article.

I read the book, I know the story inside and out, as it is one of my favorite eras in history, (no idea why: I'm a black female lez... go figure).<BR/><BR/>But to promote this sort of thinking in journalism is absurd. The fact that this woman's editors okayed the piece is mind boggling.<BR/><BR/>While I'm not impressed with either of their acting skills, I am not blind enough to say I prefer one over the other. <BR/><BR/>ON THE OTHER HAND: I'm VERY happy that they support getting tested and are vocal about it, and I'm happy the ignoramus didn't exclude it from her final piece.Sera Alastia-Promithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00552803749882557576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-34432717016788537282008-02-13T08:07:00.000-08:002008-02-13T08:07:00.000-08:00I actually find Natalie Portman incredibly cute, b...I actually find Natalie Portman incredibly cute, but Scarlett is just... bland to me. Yeah, she's got boobs and she was cute in Lost in Translation but... I think "meh" is the word I'm looking for. It might be the constant hype, or the horrible bronzer-cream adverts, but she just doesn't do it for me. <BR/><BR/>Still, the Madonna/whore stereotype is OUTDATED. AND ANNOYING.

Yes, there's the whole Madonna-whore thing in all of its male-centric shame. But to actually say that somehow Portman's POV is more valid NOT because of her education but because she has smaller breasts is beyond insulting.<BR/>Dammit, now I'm going to have to write to W.
