"Not to suck the fun out of life, but Is it alright to ogle and objectify these dudes' bodies?"

CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE:

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.

I think it's only unethical if you can see wang.

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.

The Ramones record is really the cherry on top there.

Huh. I guess I'm REALLY into community gardening now.

Alison's comment proves my long-held belief that she is the Herman Cain of Portland alt-journalism.

Inquire within for additional bicycle beefcake eye candy.

@ Blabby:
This is a blog. Not everything has to be "news," whatever that even is anymore.

"This hot model calendar is OK, because I like it." That's what it comes down to, as much as you're dancing around it, Sarah.

And that's OK.

ALSO, WHY DIDN'T THEY ASK ME TO BE IN THEIR STUPID CALENDAR? MY MOM SAYS I'M HANDSOME.
13
@alison.. yes

I can only say that I'm oh-so appalled at the obvious sexism here.
When will you just get past our pecks and see us for the human beings we are?

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.

Fuck water.
Bitches be objectifying my ass.
I can't sleep nights no more.
Oppression.... oppression...

Please wait...
