Ho-hum

Italian photographer Toscani decided to put out a calender that is just shots of female groins.  I think this is hilarious.  Less so because he has some pseudo-literary bullshit explanation to do with the hypocrisy of high fashion. 

"I wanted to deglamorize the classic fashion industry photos, where women totter in high heels wearing bright red lipstick... and everything is revealed apart from the genital triangle, the real heart of seduction."
Blah, blah blah. I think he should have just cut the crap and done a calender of close up split beaver shots as if to say: here you are, that's what you really want right?  And see who would own up to it.

But frankly, I think he looks like a smug bastard who is trying to pretend his beaver calendar has some kind of higher artistic purpose.
