In the name of all things stupid, Sony France thought it would be a great idea to market the PlayStation Vita by comparing the product to a four-breasted woman in a new advert. Accompanied by an actual photo of a woman with four rather large breasts is the copy, “Touch both sides. Twice the sensation.” [...]
“The Anti-Flirt Club was an American club active in Washington, D.C., during the early 1920s.

[Illustration 1] Considered one of the ‘creepiest and most perverted’ magazines of its day, the publication promoted randomly stalking and ‘collecting’ women as a hobby. For example, I plucked this little gem of a sentence from [...]

Bikinis (with bottoms that do not exceed six centimetres in width at the hip) have always been a requirement. Yeah, as in the athletes have no choice. So it’s kind of like that time when women didn’t [...]
Berlusconi and Strauss-Kahn. Both were in positions of immense power and very much in the public eye. Why would they risk their reputations so callously?
