Graham, I think the troll points out that if such a beefcake calendar was created related to anything other than bikes, it wouldn't be reported by the Merc at all. But because it is related bikes, it is now "news."
They are just fucking bikes, guys. My 5-year-old has one.
This calendar is totally making the male gender a sexual object. I go against that. Now, am not even Gay and I like the pictures. (minus the catalog gardener one. The dude on the bike, FTW)
I'm offended by these trashy photos of loose men with no moral values.
Those are not photos of REAL men! Real men may wear a size 36 waist, but we are your husbands and fathers, we are so much more beyond the sexual objects painted in bicycle magazine.
No body has mentioned that the calendar is going to support a good cause. In my mind, anything that is related to global issues and gets people talking this much is... great!
1.1 billion people lack access to water. this isn't going to solve it, but it might bring that message to more peoples eyes throughout the year. Culture-jamming right?
I love it when the water fanatics hear the smallest thing to do with an h2O movement and they start drooling and not yielding to any other deep serious developing issue, like the pipeline mentioned in the other post. Thus destroying ideas in peoples heads of the priorities of how a Country really develops or strives, any Country.
The rest, is not done by these talkers. Less talk more efficient action. Negative Stumbling Blocks.
Sorry to tell you this, culture jamming was officially declared dead in 2002, and it did not morph.
nooooooo there goes my fun :(
DOES THE TROLL-ISH COMMENTER SAY:
1. UGH... BIKES. ENOUGH OF THIS SHIT ALREADY.
OR
2. THIS IS SEXIST AND COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF LOCA-VORE MISANDRY.
OR
3. SARAH MIRK IS A HORRIBLE PERSON IN LEAGUE WITH THE DEVIL.
They are just fucking bikes, guys. My 5-year-old has one.
This is a blog. Not everything has to be "news," whatever that even is anymore.
And that's OK.
When will you just get past our pecks and see us for the human beings we are?
