However, these photos of Lindsay Lohan are ATROCIOUS! Why on God's Green Earth would these ever be published! Lindsay's figure is emaciated and she looks like she's about to kick the bucket! She took a gorgeous icon's last photo shoot and turned it into squirrel droppings. I hope that the mainstream media can use the pin-up aesthetic ... but, I certainly hope that they don't keep bastardizing it like they did with this photo shoot! <strong><em>Response from Bombshell Betty:</em> Did you read anything else in this blog before you posted this comment? "Body positive" doesn't mean only approving of people with bodies like yours. I've written a longer response to this <a href="http://bombshellbetty.wordpress.com/2008/04/01/more-on-body-lovehate/" rel="nofollow">here</a>.
