Having a predetermined strategy to do practically anything sexually, if it gets a person his/her 15 minutes of infamy, is pretty amoral in my book. A society where values and standards are meaningless, and publicity and cash is everything represents a pretty dark chapter in human history.
Come to think of it, I don't find the mentality of these freakshow participants offensive, so much as just very very sad. The bottom line for women is, that once they offer themselves to all and sundry they will lose the respect of others, as they're not perceived as having any respect for themselves. Whether or not this is RIGHT is another matter, but that's how it is.
I've seen some dark times in my own life, and sometimes my self-respect was the only thing I had left. And it was more valuable than any sum of money. The Michelles of this world will discover that one day. Sadly, it'll probably be the hard way.
