- laumars 5y agoI agree it’s pretty inappropriate but in fairness to the author, they’ve gone for a retro vibe and content like that was, unfortunately, pretty common back then. It was a different era in many ways, not just in term of technology.
- kstenerud 5y agoSorry, but that's not enough to give it a pass. Just because objectification of women was commonplace then does not make it OK to continue doing so now. There are plenty of other art forms from the era and medium that don't marginalize people, and tasteful ways to pay homage to the retro vibe.
