    it’s not a question of anyone being offended, or wishing to protect those poor, abused well-paid women in the video.

    it’s this:

    the people at STW-Towers decided not to publish the original video on their website for the same reasons why i chose not to share it on my facebook page:

    i’m not 12, and sexism hasn’t gone away yet.

    How ever many hundreds of thousands of years ago when Homo sapiens first walk the earth I am sure male Homo sapiens would look at female Homo sapiens and think, I would .
    Probably before even having language.

    And I hope in however many hundreds of thousands of years time two male Homo sapiens will be sat on a train or futuristic equivalent when a young female homo sapiens will board and walk to the front of the carriage whilst wearing a skirt just tight enough to accentuate her behind.
    And male homo sapiens number one discreetly elbows and whispers to male Homo sapiens number two. ” out of ten” to which male Homo sapiens number two replies “I’d give it one ” And they both laugh, no one dies.

    Don’t think women don’t do similar. It was not uncommon for me to hear “he would get it” or “he’d do” when I would run past groups of women when running late in the evening .

    I assumed the “it” was a typo. Tell us it was a typo chip, please?

    No it wasn’t , I think that was how eric and ernie performed it and would like to stay true to the original dialogue (although I could be wrong).

    Anyway it’s funnier with “it” than “her”.

    All of this is all very well, but did he get a shag or not?

    I like a bit of vulgarity in the correct situations.
    I still open doors and offer my seat on the bus, although this has been known to offend some people.

    That’s not actually that different a choice as it effectively boils down to how much you want the money and what you are prepared to do to get it.

    I’ve not watched the video and I’ve no real intentions of watching it either so I’m not offended by it, but attempts at justifying ogling women by saying “hey it’s all evolution” or some other such nonsense is frankly ludicrous.

    No-one said anything about evolution, well not from me, this is about Red Bull saying to a young lad from Glasgow who has become famous for bike tricks, would he do some in the Playboy Mansion, now are you honestly saying if you were him, you’d say no?

    All the rest is about publicity seeking bandwagoning, it could be argued STW Towers were being very clever in their approach, there being no such publicity as bad publicity and it’s an easy one to take the PC moral high ground for effect. I wouldn’t think for one moment that wasn’t part of their commercial consideration.

    Though I imagine lots of the folk who like this kind of thing are the ones who never get closer to the true reproductive experience than getting excited at the mere sight of ze big boobies.

    bit sad that his playboy vid generates more stw postings than his far superior Imaginate or even the Epecuen one

    still I suppose that what his sponsors are after!

    Another low point for moderation, the images i posted, which were criticisms of harassment and casual misogyny were removed because a couple of cells contained the f-word. As though that were any less acceptable that the ideas and images being posted here. There seems to be a whole MTFU attitude to people being offended or people being offended on behalf of others, yet certain words are deemed to offensive, for whom I’m not sure.

    Anyway, link here *warning contains the f-word (****)*

    Thanks CharlieMungus. I have printed that out and will keep it in my pocket for the next time someone tells me women aren’t victims of harassment.

    Might be a long wait though because I have never been told that before.

    Have you got one where the roles are reversed?

    Yes, to an extent, the women in the video are being objectified ( ogled if you prefer ) but I promise you, they don’t mind.

    Here’s your chance!!!

    Not particularly to keen to resurrect this thread, but I just found the Epecuen video!
    http://epecuen.redbull.com/

    Everything that the Playboy Mansion film isn’t, i.e. fascinating landscape, awesome stunts, beautiful cinematography. I can’t find a thread for it in the search but I’m sure it’s here somewhere.

    And for anyone that’s interested in the history of the place, watch this: http://vimeo.com/88706281 – ‘Pablo’s Villa – the remaining resident, who is also the old bloke on a bike at the beginning of the Danny video.

    No scantily clad women looking awesome in that Epecuen video, so I’ve got nothing to bitch about… So it’s not worth talking about. 😆

    Good video though, but it did come out before “**** yea danny does playboy video”. 😉

    Yeah I realised it came out before, hence why I’m assuming there was a thread on it back then (not that I can find it with the search tool).

    Clearly it didn’t generate as much publicity for Red Bull as the Playboy one, or the others for that matter (Industrial Revolutions, Imaginate etc) – surprised I hadn’t heard of it before. Strange because it’s a really nice film.
