So, Kim Kardashian. Kim Kardashian is famous for… um… precisely nothing, other than being famous for nothing. (Which, when you think about it? Is really kind of old school. Nowadays, you have to give birth to at least eight children – preferably all at once – before the reality TV producers will even look at you. Kim Kardashian got her start in a simpler time.)
She is also, apparently, famous for her ass, which is – according to ass enthusiasts – pretty epic. Which makes this particular story somewhat confusing: Kim Kardashian was photographed for the cover of Complex Magazine, and – gasp – an unPhotoshopped version of one of the photos was posted at Complex’s website! But! They caught the error! And the proper – Photoshopped! – version of the photo was put in its place!
Phew!
Except…
… what’s the point of putting Kim Kardashian and her epic ass on the cover of your magazine if you are just going to Photoshop that ass out of the picture? Like, seriously?
As I implied above, I don’t really give a shit about Kim Kardashian. But what is worth giving a mild shit about is the fact that she’s a lushly full-bodied woman who is celebrated for being lushly full-bodied. That’s something, right? So it’s also worth giving a shit when some doofuses decide that that full-bodiedness needs to be whittled down with a Photoshop cursor. Because, why? Why whittle down her ass when her ass is part of what makes her awesome?
If you ask me – which you didn’t, but still – the unPhotoshopped image at left is infinitely hotter than the trimmed down, glossified version on the right, because the woman on the left looks like a real, live, fleshy, touchable woman. (Pillowy thighs! PILLOWY THIGHS!) The chick on the right looks like Reality TV Barbie. Or a cyborg. Which is, I suppose, hot, if you like Cyborg Barbies, but really: if you like women, and you like women who actually feel like women? UnPhotoshopped Kim Kardashian is hotter. Much.
(Also, um… doesn’t she look kinda whiter on the right? Or am I just seeing evil everywhere now?)
Just sayin’.
