There are breast and then there are breasts, doncha think?   I frankly do
not remember people buying DJRD or FTR because there is some hot chick
nekked on the/in the album cover.   Some nudity is designed to titillate and
some is not.  Kinda like Hefner pointing to Reubens and saying:  "I am doing
the same thing that he did!"  It does not take much insight to see that JM
is an artist saying something using the human form and Brittany and Ricky
Martin are shaking their bon bons to cause a baser reaction.  Not to say
that I don't enjoy the latter, just that I can see a difference.  That's my
story and I am sticking to it.
