Quote: what do you think? Seems kinda bizarre to me, but I guess some people get turned on by bunny ears. |

I never have understood why a woman with brains would let herself be treated as a sex object like that. |

Yeah, but there are better ways to do it. Such as this: You can be cute without looking brainless. |

I'm still waiting for the Yoda Norimoto photo shoot - bunny ears, fluffy tail. That's what I'm talking about... |

The photo shoot is baduk-themed, so she is being recognized for that as well as her other, um, assets. |

Sula (and the entire Korean asia games team) is featured in the January issue of 바둑 (Baduk Magazine). During some of the photos for the asia games award ceremony, Sula appears to improvise bunny ears (or horns possibly...) random news article featuring photo mentioned above Do I have some kind of point here about how the one photo leads me to feel the other photo is not exactly out of character? Probably not. |

Cute doesn't mean brainless? Braininess doesn't mean a plain nerd? Look, this is cultural and we here should be careful throwing stones. Perhaps it has become different today, but in my own lifetime it was kept secret which movie sex symbol actresses had advanced degrees* -- because being sharp witted instead of a "dumb blonde" expected to have a negative career impact. I think the intent here is an image "you can be both brainy and beautiful" * example -- do you know upon whose work the multiple frequency technology that your cell phone uses is based? |

Mike Novack wrote: I think the intent here is an image "you can be both brainy and beautiful" A woman can also be beautiful in a nice dress, or jeans and a sweater, or whatever else. I think a good comparison is female newscasters. Like their male counterparts, they are typically chosen as much for their looks as for their intelligence. They're typically attractive, typically smart. Like their male counterparts, the networks will typically err towards sacrificing smart for attractive, but there are exceptions in both directions. Now, consider their publicity photos, or the photos on their website. Those photos would often make a red blooded man pretty happy. He might, if he knew their work, say "that woman is both beautiful and brainy!" I think it's obvious that newscasters would probably not use the bunny ears picture. Besides, let's not be ridiculous. We know what Maxim is, and what they're selling (probably NSFW). Lee's pictures are pretty modest by their standards, but their goal is to titillate. Edit: changed 'these' to "Lee's" for clarity. |

Two years earlier: http://www.361points.com/blog/2008/01/08/dont-kiss-me/ Some shots are really nice, but bunny ears are ridiculous (and meant as degrading) though unfortunately at the core of it all. Just reminds me how many successful while attractive women are offered plenty of money for naked shots (also meant as degrading, although there is nothing inherently degrading in nudity) - seems to be necessary for many men who can't cope with this combination. Best wishes to the International Women's Day |

What the...?  Ok. I feel like I'm going to get arrested watching that. She looks very young. |
