Again, Merc, it's about context. In a discussion where it's been mentioned that the editors of the tabloid papers routinely push their journalists to use a particular set of words to describe women in the news (not just the Page 3 girls, btw, any woman who appears in a news story is subject to this particular lexicon) alongside a comment about the dismissive nature of the 'page 3 girl' as she appears in the paper, you referred to those women as 'tarts' and dismissed any notion that such things are in anyway problematic.

The NSFW thread is a 'room' in an internet community where people, men and women, can show off their tackle and bits for exhibitionist purposes. That is a whole other kettle of fish, from women's tits framing the news for the male readership.
