Thoughts of a Feisty Red Head

I read a comment in the May issue of Planet Muscle regarding exploitation of woman in their magazine, it was featured in the Sets and Reps/ Q & A section. It went on to complain that the magazine shows these woman in provocative and sexual poses,  this person stated that they were ashamed at these woman for letting themselves be photographed this way, and at PM for exploiting them as sexual objects…

My response:  

I am responding to the personal trainer/professional boxer in Manhattan who feels you are exploiting woman in your magazine. These woman know exactly what they are doing, they have consented to have their pictures published in your magazine. To insinuate they are disrespecting themselves is in itself an insult to these woman. I am a woman who has recently returned to bodybuilding after many years, I do not find it to be exploitation when one is showing off years of hard work through their pictures.

Hopefully my comment will appear in the August /September issue of PM. 

Good Night all …
