Subject: RE: BS: Salma Hayek breastfeeding flack
Mick - I think you hit the nail on the head. Some people feel threatened by beauty. The whole image of the "dumb blonde" was developed so that men would not feel threatened by beauty AND brains. Some sort of psychological way of being superior.   PDQ is showing the same traits - he has shown a nearly psychotic need to post pictures of her in sexy poses as if that will somehow validate his point. People like PDQ can't see beyond the skin and is threatened that someone is doing good in the world and that makes them less of a person. Simple attacks, but a defense that has been used for ages.

Luckily, they continue to speak - and expose their own flaws.

Notice how PDQ has ignored posting photos of Hayek as Frida. Notice how he ignores the fact that she continues to pursue low-budget films that have real scripts instead of only starring in summer blockbuster films.   Notice how he fails to recongize her acting awards. Notice how he fails to mention her successful production company. Notice how he fails to mention her awards for directing.   Notice how he fails to recognize her charity work.   For people like PDQ, she ONLY has a nice rack.
