Elle – You are not lazy! After I breezed past the sponsored links in bold that read “Mom is 55, Looks 35..” and “The New ‘Skinny” Fruit’ I too looked for a “leave a comment” or feedback link. Our plan B comrades is to write to Penny via her workplace: mail@cwfa.org.

Bonus points as FoxNews RECOMMENDED STORIES has a link for the announcement that Japan invents speech-jamming gun that silences people mid-sentence. If FoxNews reporters had those, interviews would be a bit shorter.

Think I can find a porn link with a stripping Japanese woman who looks 20 years younger eating a piece of fruit?

Seeing and hearing Stephen Elliott guy exploit his former ‘sexworker’ status to downplay his real identity: he is nothing but the epitome of patriarchy who consumes sex trade just as another typical john– drives me up the wall.

Yeah, I wanted to leave some of my own feedback on the page, but….Couldn’t find a comment box!

Either I didn’t look hard enough (wouldn’t surprise me, I’m lazy) or they don’t give the option, which would surprise me even less.

I did however, write Redbook and thank them, and leave a nice comment via Facebook also.

Re: Redbook Article. Could have predicted the reaction of the blogger simply because it’s a Fox News Blogger. I got about two sentences in to the ‘response’ and couldn’t take anymore. Fox bloggers must have a template blog: “In my parents day (insert liberal idea that is destroying America) wasn’t tolerated” then “I don’t know about you, but I don’t want my kids to be Muslim gay devil worshippers so I’m going to denounce this because it doesn’t agree exactly with my ideals.” Just swap gays, health care, single moms, whatever for strippers and it’s the exact same thing. Sorry to get political, just the complete lack of original thought from Fox is striking, and somewhat amazing.

In reply to Anjasa. I was disappointed to see that too.

Why does Jillian Lauren always talk about things that ‘imprint’ on girls to be sex workers? It bugged me in the book, too, this assumption that women only get into sex work if they’re damaged, or into drugs, or are depressed, or abused, or had inappropriate relationships.

It really bothers me.
