I didn’t realize that the meeting Bill Clinton had with bloggers was so controversial. Althouse objects to Jessica (front row, center) posing, accusing her of writing “one of those blogs that are all about using breasts for extra attention. Then, when she goes to meet Clinton, she wears a tight knit top that draws attention to her breasts and stands right in front of him and positions herself to make her breasts as obvious as possible?”
Jessica protests that “things like this remind me that no matter what I do or accomplish, because I’m a young woman all I’m good for is fodder for tacky intern jokes and comments that I don’t “represent feminist values” because of the way I posed in a picture.”
I’ll have to leave it to the feminists to argue over the “political correctness” of Jessica’s pose. Perhaps they would have been happier if she had worn a burka. Looking at this more scientifically, I am reminded of what I learned in undergrad statistics. The average human has one breast, along with one testicle. The fact that Jessica has two seems like no big deal. Going beyond statistics to clinical experience, I’ve done hundreds, perhaps thousands, of physicals. Every woman I’ve seen was born with two breasts. We’re dealing with perfectly normal anatomy here. After meeting with Bill Clinton, there must have been a lot more to talk about beyond the fact that Jessica has a pair of breasts. Considering how modestly she is dressed, it is hard to be shocked by this picture, especially after a week in which pictures of Lindsay Lohan’s bare and shaved vagina have been all over the internet.
