Ilana Mercer writes<\/a>:<\/p>\n

I\u2019d like to better understand the conservative media\u2019s orgy over Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced and disgraceful Hollywood film producer and studio executive who used his power over decades to have his way with starlets.<\/p>\n

To listen to conservative talkers, the women affronted or assaulted by Weinstein were all Shakespearean talent in the making\u2014female clones of Richard Burton (he had no match among women)\u2014who made the pilgrimage to Sodom and Gomorrah in the Hollywood Hills, for the purpose of realizing their talent, never knowing it was a meat market. Watching the women who make up the dual-perspective panels \u201cdiscussing\u201d the Weinstein saga, it\u2019s hard to tell conservative from liberal.<\/p>\n

\u201cConservative\u201d women now complain as bitterly as their liberal counterparts about \u201cobjectification.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, the female form has always been revered; been the object of sexual longing, clothed and nude. The reason the female figure is so crudely objectified nowadays has a great deal to do with \u2026 women themselves. By virtue of their conduct, women no longer inspire reverence as the fairer sex, and as epitomes of loveliness. For they are crasser, vainer, more eager to expose all voluntarily than any male. Except for Anthony Weiner, the name of an engorged organism indigenous to D.C., who was is in the habit of exposing himself as often as the Kardashians do.<\/p>\n

The latter clan is a bevy of catty exhibitionists, controlled by a mercenary, ball-busting matriarch called Kris Kardashian. Kris is madam to America\u2019s First Family of Celebrity Pornographers. (To launch a career with a highly stylized, self-directed sex tape is no longer even condemned.) Lots of little girls, with parental approval, look up to the Kardashians.<\/p>\n

From Kim, distaff America learns to couch a preoccupation with pornographic selfies in the therapeutic idiom. Kardashian flaunts her ass elephantiasis with pure self-love. Yet millions of her admirers depict her obscene posturing online as an attempt to come to terms with her body. \u201cBe a little easier on myself,\u201d counsels Kim as she directs her camera to the nether reaches of her carefully posed, deformed derriere. While acting dirty and self-adoring, Kardashian delivers as close to a social jeremiad on self-esteem as her kind can muster. Genius!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
