Does anyone truly have an issue with Katy Perry's dress?

Since I was a kid, I was exposed to cleavage. I saw it in the vintage Looney Tunes (Um, Red Hot Riding Hood, everyone?) prime time cartoons depicting Marilyn Monroe, and in vintage films, showing in prime time, featuring golden cinema-aged actresses with similar, or close to, necklines. Not to mention, I totally saw t!ts when I watched the 1940s Fantasia (featured in the centaur scenes), The Little Mermaid (nice cleavage Ariel. And Ursula. Oh, and all of Ariel's sisters) Beauty and the Beast featured the villain's groupies with actual cleavage drawn in.

All these movies, I've watched since I've learned to crawl.

Really, I've only heard of her through the music on the radio, and people gushing over her vintage hair style. Honestly, I have no idea what she's really like, so how come people are calling her a slut? Educate me, please, all of you.

Update:

It's true, people. She is a celebrity and she doesn't really matter at all in comparison to the more serious things that matter more in the world. I was just a little concerned over how people freaked out over her neckline; especially after seeing so many people now considering shorts, legging, jeggings, a short dress, as slut-wear already. It's like going on your life seeing it being worn that way everywhere, and suddenly waking up one day, and suddenly hearing people say that it's all vile and disgusting.

Also, er, Bronco...I'm glad to hear your independent view on this. But whatever I am is no business to anyone here. First off, anyone can have a masculine name (eg. Mackenzie Phillips; Paris Hilton; Anyone called Terry, Jamie, Riley, Charlie, Cory, Tori, Lesley, Codi, etc. and just happen to be women).

I'm just a kid who grew up surrounded with hundreds of kids with the same name; so you develop a variation in elementary school; which seemed better than being called a simple numb

Update 2:

...*number. (damn Yahoo answers word-count).

    I didn't see the issue, but then I don't have any children. I found it amusing that the women on the cable news who were criticizing her had almost as much cleavage. I guess 3 inches of cleavage is okay but 5 inches is UNRULY!!!

    No no no.

    There is a youtube vid of her doing the sesame street vid. Unbelievably it caused uproar and i have no idea for the love of god why! One guy thought it was good to re-paste that boys aged 6 notice boobs. For crying out loud this guy sounds homophobe pushing that rubbish. There isn't anything to shout about so why the fuss i will never know. I think these guys have sex on the brain.

    She is prolly bi so is her hubby i can bet you that much. He's classic camp. But the media won't push that he is unless they can label him as gay and then these media types will get a sigh of relief. Lmao that's how scared they are having a bi guy on tv.

    which dress?

    Anyway, she's absolutely brilliant. I mean, how could ANYBODY come up with anything as staggeringly cerebral as sticking the cans of aerosol Dumb Whip on them store-bought hooters? And she sings like a Linnet. I mean, like one that's stuck in a hose full of electronic enhancers, but still almost nearly half as good as the average drunk bimbo that sucked half the meat logs in Somewhat Biggerville to get a singing part in a local Car Wash commercial. And why would anybody think she's slutty for being blue-haired and buck naked and stuff in videos? And you're right. Plenty of Toon Poon that's much worse. You could see Woody Woodpecker's (hahaha...pecker) Pig-tailed babysitter's buttcrack while he's dumping a shovelfull of hot coals down the back of her bloomers. And who wouldn't want to Rod Red Hot Rooting Hood? And Alice the Goon has pendulous Yabbos that make Aunt Jeminina look like Olive Oyl. No wonder Little Johnny Shitpants can't read.

    Educate me first..Not sure where your coming from, are you a female with a shortened name that sounds male, like Alexandra?....Or are you a male, with long hair?. Thanks

    She is doing what women have been doing for ages, using her sexuality and body to sell records, and promote her image. He mode of dress on a recent banned episode of Sesame Street didnt bother as much, except for the fact she is famous for making a song encouraging girls to make out with other girls. Therefore I wrote her off as allowed in my home 2 years ago Promoting homosexuality is not wecome in my home, and based on teh recent polls and elections, not welcome in at least half of American households as well.

  • Absolutely! Can't stand it in any way, shape or form! Complete waste of time and space! Now - who the Hell is Katy Perry, and what the hell is the business about her dress?

    She is using her assets to get attention and increase her popularity. This is nothing new as women have been doing it for centuries.

    The only issue I have with any of her clothing is that it is not on the floor of my bedroom...hint, hint.

    Why would any straight males have an issue with it. I think all women should be in minimal clothing.
