Whole New Level Of Sluttiness!

Apparently today is Lingerie Day in Twitterville. Check out your trending topics. People unite all over the place, especially in Brazil, to celebrate it by putting up lingerie photos. To my male readers, go take a peek! Many women get dolled up, put their sexiest lingeries on, pose in their most seductive positions and upload the shots in twitter.

A few examples? Here, here, and here. Happy Lingerie Day to you!

I've written before about how much I love lingeries, right? How women should try buying them for themselves if they ever see a cute pair? How they can be a sexy confident boost?

Somehow I feel today's celebration isn't really about it all.

It's no longer about flaunting your best assets to yourself and making you realize how gorgeous you can look. It's not even about pleasing your significant other / boyfriend / husband / date anymore. Now it's more like showing and pleasing the whole world including dozens of strangers and perverts clicking around said trending topic.

Congratulations ladies, your boobs and butt cracks are now out there for us to see.

Maybe I'm a prude. Maybe I'm too Asian for my own good, despite how much I convince myself I'm so much more open-minded than my parents, grand parents, and great grandparents. I just can't seem to wrap my head around it. I know there are breast cancer websites with women taking pictures of only their boobs for charity, I can understand that. But this? With the whole sexy face making, index finger on the mouth, boobs and ass jutted out in skimpy undergarments? Real time public access, nonetheless? I know I should not judge when I'm far from being the holiest person here but maybe there's a satisfaction from being a semi-exhibitionist I don't know about.

Here I thought Facebook can be full frontal, I was wrong. At least whoring around in Facebook usually can only be seen by people in your friend list.

Your thoughts?






ps. THIS might be the hottest picture from the whole bunch though.
pss. LMAO!

    Andi, you crack me up.

    Thanks for sharing (hah.)

    It's about boosting the ego, I guess. People want to be admired like celebs. Now everyone can feel like a celeb by becoming a popular tweeter/blogger with many followers. The joke is, some really think they're celebs, but what have they done? Nothing significant, if you ask me. Real celebs are humble and don't need to push themselves into the media. The media come to them.

    people wanna be adored. and they sucks trying. e-whore must be a trend right now. maybe they're hoping to find someone rich to pet them.

    1st example : maybe around 34b or 36a.

    2nd example : scary face for me, looks like a male. goddamn it! but of course some people think it as exotic.

    3rd example : the pic shows the possibility as a fugly slut around 94.5% and 5.5% as a big male geek with a (cross) trans-dress hobby.

    bonus example : not a booby trap but a micro penis indeed!

    Ahh, I linked this post to mine today because we kinda focused on the same things. I think there's nothing wrong with wanting to feel sexy/beautiful, but I think people do it for the wrong reasons or flaunt things for society's approval, rather than be humble about it.

    Gotta love the "angles" on these photos ... and I agree, that last one is my fave LOL.

  1. As though there weren't already enough skanky stuff on the internet... I mean, dude, women need to keep an air of mystery!

  1. Julie said...:

    i have a legit lingerie addiction...it's expensive and annoying bc i own tooooo much! so therefore, i LOVE lingerie day!

  1. I think today is more about attention-whoreing... but maybe that's just me. I'm all about sexy but I don't need to share it with EVERYONE on the internet. Gross.

  1. Amy said...:

    I think people do that when they want attention and they go about it the wrong way.

    Who thinks of this nonsense? As a woman I find it degrading.

  1. Matt said...:

    That last pic was not cool. Not cool at all...

  1. mart and lu said...:

    ohh sounds interesting. i have never heard of that one before. hope you have a lovely weekend!

  1. Martina said...:

    I'll take the same stand on this as I do about casual sex.

    If you are doing it because you're an exhibitionist and love to shock people, then have at 'er. Good for you.

    If you are doing it because you want the internet to tell you are pretty or for people to find you sexy because you don't think you are... I really hope you seek some help. You can only do this so many times before you get burned and one comment ruins your already low self esteem.

  1. Love your blog! Thanks so much for stopping by mine :) I have a problem with these sort of tactics as well, what do these girls get from it? I actually just pity them, to think that they believe this is the right way to get a guys attention is sad. Well anyways, enjoyed your post and will definitely become a follower!

  1. Margarita said...:

    You're not a prude, these people just want attention. It's kind of a stupid thing too.

  1. Manju said...:

    Okay i like...totally died laughing at that last pic (so mean) wahahahahahah

  1. Miss Rosa said...:

    That pic of you on the right? GORGEOUS!

  1. jen - tsk said...:

    Bwahahaha that last pic actually made me chuckle!!

  1. Ms. Salti said...:

    I've been absent from your blog for a bit. I LOVE the new layout!

    Very well said post. I really like what you wrote. It's all my thoughts that I can never seem to put together in a coherent sentence! Good job!

  1. P said...:

    Each to his own and all that, but I am with you. I'm NOT a glamour model and/or desperate whore/c-list celeb trying to get attention by posing in a lad's mag. So yeah, no, I AIN'T with that.

    If my lingerie appears, it's by accident. I actually can't count the number of times my bra has appeared out of the top of my top. I really need to stop wearing such low cut tops.

    I HATE the bra showing. I am NOT Erin Brockovich! (Which brings me back to the original point.)

  1. Nashe^ said...:

    I don't have that trending topic, thank god. The person who started it is probly some chick who thinks she's hot. LOL

  1. nicopolitan said...:

    I didn't even know about this!

    I have to admit I'm a little weirded out by it. Do people forget how many other people on the internet can and WILL see their naughty bits? I guess so.

  1. Aimee said...:

    Ouch. Yeah its flashy and trashy. I dont mind being a pruse if it means I keep my lady bits for a select few only.

  1. L.L. said...:

    It's never prudish to have self respect!

  1. People are so desperate for attention...seriously, what's next? I don't want to know!! I heart you for keepin it classy!

  1. carissajaded said...:

    Girl, I am on the exact same page as you. I'm pretty open minded, but come on. Some things just don't need to be shown. And as far as twitter goes, if I get one more half naked bot sucking on a peen following me, I may throw my computer out the window. Just sayin.

  1. Bayjb said...:

    Wow I totally missed this trending topic. I'm glad I did, my prudish nature probably would have come out too.

  1. Lindsay said...:

    I just don't get the appeal of posting half-naked pictures of yourself on the Internet. If you want to send pics to your boyfriend or whatever, that's cool. I just don't need to see them.

  1. Sam said...:

    ANDHARI!! I'm giving you the GLOB award! Keep posting so I can keep reading!

    accept it at samhuizinga.blogspot.com

  1. Sandra said...:

    I would not post photos of my semi-naked self for the whole world to see. My body is a temple. lol But seriously, I wouldn't do it...I'm not in my best shape. lol

    HOWEVER, I'm not gonna hate if they have a smokin' hot bod. I will just envy them for it. X) Models/actresses/singers pose in swimsuits/lingerie all the time.

    I dunno, I'm with Liz, just KEEP IT CLASSY, LADIES! (and gents, if that's your cup of tea)

  1. Sandra said...:

    AND I'd be terrified if it came back to haunt me in the future. Like if I became some hotshot lawyer/editor/publisher. o_O

  1. Harini said...:

    I could never ever do that. I dont even see the need to do that actually. May be I am a Asian too. I understand standing in front of mirror and admiring your self. I can understand if its for significant other. But why to the entire world. I like my privacy and would like to keep some parts of my body private.

  1. ScoMan said...:

    Some people have such low self esteem they'll do whatever it takes to get people to say "You're awesome"

    Some of us are fantastic bloggers and don't have to prance around in our underwear to make people like us.

    Some of us have no skills at all, and taking photos of themselves in their underwear is all they can do to be notice.

  1. No kidding! I agree with you, Lolita. There are times when we women have to show our assets but only for good cause....

  1. so, meaning to say, when my internet broke down for two days, it was a good thing(?) that i somewhat missed the trending topic. ahaha. awesome. it's tila tequila all over. ahaha ya know, publicity stunt.

  1. Scary... Why do people degrading themselves? I love lingerie, and sometimes i do take unusual pic of myself. But showing it on the whole wide web to the whole wide world? ... ... ...

  1. Dyinetch said...:

    It's disturbing how attention-hungry people use these social networking sites to get their egos stroked! This is whore-ror!

    Or maybe I'm just too Asian for my own good as well. Ha!

    The last photo cracked me up. ;D

  1. Sheri said...:

    So wrong! I am all for sexy lingere, but I would never go around showing it for the web to see. I mean no way!

    P.S. - I have an award for you over on my blog if you wanted to pick it up. :)

    "Maybe I'm a prude. Maybe I'm too Asian for my own good, despite how much I convince myself I'm so much more open-minded than my parents, grand parents, and great grandparents."

    I don't think you're a prude, I think you have a grain of common sense! Once you post that naked/almost naked photo on the net, its on there and ANYONE can see it! (ie. Bosses, coworkers, in-laws, etc) Plus, while different culture have different ideas, I think many NON-Asians (myself included) are very much against this kind of desperate need for validation and also try to maintain some level of modesty.

  1. injen said...:

    Oh so this is what you were talking about...ummm. I for one would not participate in such a thing. You got to be careful what you put on the internet, especially when it comes to pictures. No self respect? Perhaps?
    Anyway, I'm with you on this one.
    And I totally regret clicking on that last twitpic. lol.

  1. ChinkyGirLMeL said...:

    Oh i know. I try to convince my self that I am more open minded about a lot of things, but just putting stuff like this online for the whole world to see is just not my kind of thing. Then these people start wondering why they have pervs following them on twitter, well HELLo. hehehehe. =)

  1. NITIA / MONTO said...:

    euww gross. i dont see the point of celebrating lingerie day there. i mean come on, there are too many haitians kids out there who need to be fed. i dont know, its just.. unnecessary. e-whore sucks.

  1. amindinmotown said...:

    For some crazy reason, the Internet has made people even more starved for attention than they likely were beforehand. It's totally out of control, if you ask me.
