Silly Smut and Kitschy Puffs

I kid you not, a polar bear pin-up. Judging by the styling of the girl's hair and make-up, this is a circa 1930's pin-up. The composition of it is so strange, in my opinion. There's something really freakish about using a polar bear at all but then to put him on his hind legs with the girl on his shoulders, with bridle, et al, just sticks in my craw. The only logical explanation for this is that the artist was wasted out of his mind and he was sitting around laughing his ass off with some musician friends and they said, "Man, draw a chick up on a polar bear." So, he did. I mean, it would be sexier for her to walk wolves on leashes with little igloos in the distance or for her to be in a skimpy little fur lined bikini with mukluks. I can't help but imagine she's mauled and killed after the photo shoot (if she were real) and then the photographer's head is ripped off by the bear and eaten. Pass that joint, would ya?

wtf!

ok, if you ARE going to go ahead and attempt to ride a polar bear (not a good idea generally i'd think) in a skimpy-ass outfit.. would you really try to ride the HEAD region?? mrbear could easily turn around and just eat her vagina. and not in a sexy way.

horrible, horrible idea all around. stupidest pinup girl ever.

Exactly, Shan, which is why I had to bring it to the monkeys. I have only seen a few others that almost came close. They'll eventually be up. The strange thing that kept going through my head was: is there another girl riding another polar bear the same way and are they going to play chicken? I just don't get it. I wonder what publication it ran in and what the viewers of the 30's thought of it? Does thinking change that much? The vaginal proximity issue- did other women flinch when they saw the cartoon? I guess we'll never know....C
