(14,119 posts).... before she becomes FLOTUS ? Melania set a new standard, for First Ladies new found dignity and respect.

(6,414 posts)There are many reasons to dislike her. I don't consider the fact that she posed nude one of them.

(13,254 posts)I feel free to shame any Republican woman on the subject.

(25,816 posts)She has a bogus Einstein visa, lied about her college, became a call girl, was introduced
to trump by Epstein and Gislaine, married the world's biggest asshole for money, became a
birther, bought her parents in the country in direct conflict with donnie's policy for regular people
and wore a I don't care jacket to view kids in cages.
Posing nude is nothing--even if was sleazy.

(23,944 posts)Melanias modeling photos are, at best, soft porn.

(9,952 posts)I am pretty consistent about that.

(83 posts)It's not the nudity or soft porn, etc. It's the brazen hypocrisy from rightwingers. If ANY woman from the Dem side had posed nude, etc., and then became flotus, they would be eviscerating her and the slut shaming would be never-ending.
It has become plentifully evident, that Melania lacks ethics or morals, and it has little to do with her naked pics.
lunatica
(53,410 posts)Or that she plagiarized Michelles speech? Or that she refused to go to the Whitehouse for months while she was updating her pre-nup? Or that she was friends with Epstein and Ghislaine? Or that she was a vocal birther?
I dont slit shame her myself only because I dont do that shit, but I dont demand that others show her any respect.

(53,410 posts)Poor little Melania. People are being so cruel to her! Her nude photos were just her modeling career with Epstein, right? All legit.

(6,414 posts)Alrighty then.

(58,596 posts)perhaps it has to do with how the woman in question grew up and became a decent person later in life.
I don't disrespect women who pose nude, or do nude scenes in movies or whatever. Melania turned it into becoming a trophy wife for a man of some power, while developing no apparent sense of style or grace.
I don't consider it 'slut shaming' in this case.

(11,949 posts)Rather the hypocrisy. The first couple are the darlings of 80% of evangelical Christians.
You know, the ones that insist on controlling womens bodies.

(6,786 posts)definition of poor taste. It is not possible to shame a shameless person.

(11,949 posts)My beautiful wife of 60 commented one how lovely Jill looked the other night. A graceful 69.

(11,949 posts)I was not criticizing. She was beautiful then and now.
LakeArenal
(28,801 posts)This is a beautiful pictures of our new First Lady.
Besides turning it into a praise its turned into a Melania hate fest.
AND a complaint on the age of the picture.
Cripes, Show an old picture of Obama and everybody swoons.
Show a picture of Justin Trudeau everybody swoons.
Show a picture of DR. Biden and it turns into a cluster f.

(1,126 posts)We are above slut shaming. To me it does not matter if Jill did naked photos or Melsnia.
If you want to compare apples to oranges, talk about Jill and how she raced to the school yo make sure everything is prepared versus Melania wearing the I Do Not Care clothing.
Lets not judge someones sexuality. We want folks know we will not do that to them, that our party wants them and values them.
