The End Of Page Three???
The sad demise of a harmless British tradition, brought low by a phalanx of hairy feminists and liberal yoghurt knitters?
Or the welcome eradication of a blatantly sexist anachronism in what purports to be a family newspaper?

You might assume from my inclusion of the words 'phalanx', 'anachronism' and 'purports' in the above questions, that I am one of the aforementioned liberal yoghurt-knitter, but personally I don't have any strong feelings one way or the other about the future of Page Three...
...other than it might make room for more stories about Kim Kardashian...which I think we can all agree is a very bad thing indeed.

/// I expect to be able to read in a newspaper in any public place such as the bus, train or park bench.
I don't want to feel uncomfortable because the youngster sitting close by happens to see page 3.
There is a time and place and a daily newspaper isn't it. ///
Then we should make the reading of newspapers in front of a youngster illegal, since some of the photographs of the atrocities committed around the world are more frightening than the sight of the female breast, after all they were the main source of food in their younger days.

/// Look at hen nights when male strippers are on the programme. No one tell me that all women are shrinking violets!! ///
Yes you have certainly hit upon it there retro, when the girls gather to have a hen night and on the menu are male strippers, it is then classed as good girlie night out fun.
Yet when men have stag nights that include female strippers, they are classed as the 'dirty mac brigade' why is this.

I don't mind anyone looking at whatever they want online. I just don't want them to when I'm in the same room, on the same train or whatever.
The fact that I don't like page 3, and would be pleased if it ended has, no bearing on what I think of the atrocities committed against women, such as stoning etc.

Yes, but they are not the 'hairy feminists' (have you seen a picture of the wimin leading the campaign) complaining are they.
Surely it should be down to the buying public. This is supposed to be a free country (except of course when something upsets the liberals)

It is. Murdoch doesn't withdraw things that are selling well (News of the World was an extreme exception). He's decided, like others, that pages that look like they belong in the 1970s aren't selling any more.
The Sun's circulation is falling about 10% a year.

/// AOG, yes you can just not buy the paper if you're offended by page 3. However, it just makes me uncomfortable seeing the men I work with look at it. That's not a Victorian attitude. ///
So it is not an urban myth that some women don't like to see men enjoying themselves?
/// By the way it's a myth that they covered up table legs because they were embarrassed/ offended or anything like that. It was simply to protect them from knocks. ///
Did you mean to put "knockers"? :0)

//jd-1984 yes of course you went out with a glamour model -I saw you once in KU -I was with Johnny Depp -remember? //
I have never told a lie on this page in the 3-4 years I have been a member.
I had a relevant argument to something that you had said. Girls who model do have boyfriends. Say hi to Johnny Depp next time you see him!
