Even the ones that don't come close to being chosen for the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated. I'm an older guy, and while I concede it's generational, I mutedly groan at seeing a gal adorned with piercings or painted up to look like cheap velvet painting at a swap meet. But...... I respect that it's YOUR choice to do that to your body. Hell, I went to war on the premise of protecting the notion that such choices are YOURS to make. And I fully, whole-heartedly agree that it should be YOUR choice to decide to do WITH your body when it comes to sharing it with someone else or thereafter.

We NEED more women in government. That would cure a LOT of the gender inequity we're dealing with right now!
