Which part do you disagree with?
Because Page 3 belonged in the days of the 1970s Stewart Lee is talking about. When racism, homophobia and sexism was seen as acceptable.
It objectifies and belittles women and there is no place for it in 2015 UK.

I'm anticipating this thread is about to turn into quite a heated and polorising debate, so to lighten the upcoming mood, check out this funny dog:

I don't particulalry care if the sun keeps page 3 or not mate, market forces should take care of that, if people want to buy it as it is they should be allowed to, equally those that don't like it can choose not to buy it.
Racism, homophobia and sexism are all wrong, it's just where the line is drawn. The thing is there is no official line despite what some people will try and argue, your line is different to mine and that is only defined by our difference of opinions, in reality the whole thing is just a massive grey area. Liberals want to jump on any minor skirmish of the line they have drawn, less liberal minded people just see that as ultra nit picking and being too PC.
That pretty much it mate, I don't expect either of us to change our opinions, and we are all allowed different opinions right? Yours is not better than mine and vice versa, but it's easy to get into arguments about it because we both feel very strongly our opinion is the right one.

That's all fair enough.
But I'm genuinely interested to know what part of that Steward Lee clip you think is "shite" and why.

I thought they were just bringing back girls with their knockers out, but if they're now sticking 2 fingers up them then I think that's a bit far for a newspaper - keep that kind of stuff to specialist magazines.
Andrew T wins again 😄

Come on mate be fair, child pornography is illegal, at least if you said something like showing fully naked women with their bits out that would be legal and probably be within someone's grey area.

So you disagree with me before you know what I'm referring to? Fair enough.
FWIW I have absolutely no problem with page 3. I don't think anyone is being exploited. I do however disagree with adding the word 'tossers' every time you say PC.
It isn't always a bad thing.
