Looks like someone got a kidney tune-up ahead of her

[Ocelot II]

113. Melania is doing a damn good job of objectifying herself.

Haute couture apparently involves women's dresses that are essentially the professional uniforms of sex workers. If a woman wants to be a sex worker and is not being trafficked or exploited, which is too often the case with that line of work, that's her choice. But if you're not a sex worker why would you dress like one? - Unless it's because you've bought into the objectification of women's bodies that requires you to expose as much of your "wares" as you can without being nicked for indecent exposure, even if you're not actually selling. Melania's dress is designed to show as much boob as possible without exposing an entire nipple, and is slit high onto her thigh. She's advertising even if she isn't selling; but why does a woman in her 50s accept the notion that fancy dress = acres of exposed flesh? The men who came to that same event didn't show up in hot pants or without shirts (thank god for that, considering her escort). That extreme, contrived sexuality seems to be especially required of Trump-adjacent women and Fox show hostesses - have a look at Kimberly Guilfoyle, all cleavage and puffy lips and crotch-length dresses, for example; she really does look like the proprietress of a tacky brothel. I have no hesitation to call out women who contribute to the depiction and objectification of women as "skanks" by dressing themselves as caricatures of the same.
