While Jill might have been a clothing model years ago, and while she's what some might consider traditionally gorgeous, she's not someone I find super attractive to me personally.
I blame the song. Surely any thread about it could only descend into anger, mayhem, confusion and misogyny.

You will never convince anyone of anything on the internet and this thread is becoming worthless even by RM standards. Just let go.

OK, fair point. Ah I don't know, I'm just reacting to the insinuation that we're all mindless misogynist sheep supporting the enslavement of women just because we like a song and feel it relates to our own ugly selves in our own shitty little underpaid lives.BurtReynolds wrote:This is why I gotta stop cruising RM for strange.
