Blog post 3 - Olsen Twins
Although we did not discuss specifically the Olsen twins last class I couldn't help but think of them when I read the assignment. Naturally, as I have seen most of us have done already I went to Google images and typed in Olsen twins. To avoid making anyone feel uncomfortable I decided not to include the photo I found but anyone of course can type Olsen twins into Google to find this image (it was on the first page of images). Without posting the photo I will just let you all know it was quite revealing and although I know the two (or was it just one?) have had some rough times I was still surprised to find this image especially when I merely searched "Olsen twins". More disturbing yet were the comment below the photo. Comments included "This photo is silly...Look at any picture of them - they don't have big boobs like that. Also, both of the real twins are way skinnier than the two girls in the photo. Super hott though!" and "I want to grabby grabby on bothy bothy" and after a few accusations of photoshopping we find the truly concerned commenter who goes beyond comparing the tone of their faces to their boobs saying "i don't think that's really them, they havent worn their hair like that in a while".
After having enough filth thrown in my face for one day I ventured on to find another image of the two. At http://celebritytoejam.blogspot.com/2007/10/olsen-twins.html I found some pretty cute photos of the sisters though the theme of the photos was focused quite a bit on their feet which I found a little weird. Should've seen it coming from the web address. I was about to place my kiss of approval on the site when I came across an ad at the bottom of the page and although the ad did not pertain to the Olsen twins it was still on the site which any child can access. The ad flashed the website address, a few nude pictures, then "where the winner fucks the loser". I realize I cannot blame the Olsen twins for this and I actually am not sure I can even blame them for their own photo on the other site considering it may have been photoshopped but all this has left me completely confused and disgusted.
