Source: Cleavage goes bust: Vogue declares the décolletage over

Since we’ve been discussing delusion, here’s a story that illustrates how pompous are the opinions of those self anointed culture and fashion gurus.

Decolletage over.  Hmm. Well, if we step back and take a top down view of the issue of cleavage, we’d have to concede that breasts have probably been overexposed as a fashion staple over the past generation.  Fashion runways, teen magazines and of course, certain ubiquitous personalities have ridden the fascination with chest exposure to dubious fame, notoriety and ample rewards.  Let’s not beat our chest on whether this is deserved or not, but I think we can agree that much of this fame is way over the top.

Coy glimpses of femininity never goes out of style, but fashion tastes have veered to the extreme. The de rigueur exposure of chest skin by women, especially those in entertainment,  makes them look like castings for a Russ Meyer film.  Even Russ could not have imagined the grotesque degrees that women would go to in order to ensure that no one would ever see the color of their eyes.

This is mainly an American phenomenon,  for like most things in America, if something is good, then more of it must be better.  Personalities such as Kim Kardashian and Nikki Minaj to name just a few, make the most of this craze for improbably shaped women to great commercial advantage.  Well, Vogue says that this is over.

As in a previous article about the fashion downfall of ‘manly men’, I’d be a bit skeptical of this pronouncement and wouldn’t expect the immediate demise of the push up bra. It’s one thing to dictate fashion affectations as padded shoulders, bell bottoms or short skirts.  It’s another to even consider that some New York fashionistas will dictate what is intrinsically attractive about the natural characteristics of the sexes.

On the other hand, there will always be that contingent of fashion slaves that need to be directed by a small cabal of style mavens as to what’s in vogue.  I’ve always thought this to be quite strange since I didn’t think people needed direction on the appeal of the opposite sex. As for those women who are concerned about being unfashionable after Vogue’s pronouncement; my advice is, don’t be concerned.  I’m sure someone will find you stylish, even if it’s only red blooded men.

Not making this up.  What’s amazing is not the infantile (and likely illegal) directive; it’s the fact that this guy Maloney, actually convinced people to hire him.

The logical thing is to take this to the next step and announce publicly that customers not conforming to his worldview politically,  on global warming or on boxers versus briefs should take their business elsewhere.  Wouldn’t want to sully their financial coffers with money from haters and racists.

Actually, much of the hate and violent speech utterances he claims to abhor should cause him to exclude any rappers and sailors, famously known for non decorous language.  In fact, German and Japanese speakers should be ostracized as well, since, well you know, the wars, 60 years ago.

This genius is likely the product of a modern liberal education which is 50% fluff and 75% made up stuff.  He likely has an undergraduate degree from the Romper Room school of business where hugs and naps are 3rd year courses and Holding Your Breath Until You Get Your Way are electives.  Today’s liberal colleges ( an oxymoron?) are the source of the snowflakes that eventually find their way to society at large.  Free thinking and love are prized at these schools, as long as you agree with them; or else you’re a hater.  The peacenik Che Guevera is still a hero to many of the peace/love set.

The Trump election has broken the crumbling dam holding back the sea of idiots and nutters that see themselves as the righteous and principled.   They caricature themselves with their faux piety and condescending superiority towards those that dare to have divergent worldviews.  It’s an eerie coincidence that they view themselves as the ones representing peace and tolerance….sound familiar? No, not Islamist militants; much worse than that.  They proudly refer to themselves as  liberals and progressives.  Often, these zealots can be found in the usual professions in which fantasy plays a big part: entertainment, journalism, college professors and students and of course politicians.   They are not usually found in business which requires common sense and judgement.

I’ve never even heard of this company, Grub Hub, or this Maloney guy before, but I can’t imagine that it would be a barrel of laughs to work there.  If the staff find it too stifling, they can always work for Kim Jong Un.  If the company doesn’t work out, he’ll probably have to go back to living in the safe spaces of his mom’s basement.
