Can't get enough of them myself.  Rosa's time is round again, our politics 
back to sordid choices of left and right that are no choice at all.  Our 
sacrilegious women are perhaps the Greens, though the Anglicans have thrown 
up a female Bishop.  My genes, of course, organise my view of women in some 
dire connection with libidinal reproduction and sexual preference.  It is 
somehow profane to talk of such, yet this "language" is everywhere.  Women 
are these "things" in front of me in newsrooms are they?  I use the word 
"things" in the sense of how the bevy of 'beauty' hits me.  Bored with no 
news, and I can't remember in what year there last was any, my mind runs a 
little salacious.  I don't notice the men, as they do nothing at all for my 
crude eye, other than get looked at by the "things" in occasional 
adoration.  And what are these "things", cooing no news?

I grant, to an extent, that I have become a sad old man, like one of 
Plato's characters in The Republik, watching naked gymnastics.  Yet it 
isn't me who writes in complaining I can't see the legs on these "things". 
 You see, I'd listen to Microsoft Sam ahead of the sickening bimboism of 
the newsroom, he "he" had any actual news.  Newsrooms are just one example 
of of the glaring use of crude sexuality, mannered into manners as though 
some decent way of being.  This "way of being" is just another way to make 
real people, real women invisible.  One trip to the town centre, and I know 
these newsroom things must be another species.  They wouldn't add up to one 
Rosa, maybe not the shoe left in the mud.

Real people have been invisible or are rendered so in our history.  There 
are no people in our newsrooms, nothing sacrilegious enough to be real. 
 The pornography is obvious.  Yet this is easily made invisible by making 
it profane to speak of.  What a dirty old man I must be to notice any of 
this.  Did I mention that whatever is in these newsrooms bores me to death 
and disgusts me?    It is a sexist, ageist, lookist, ableist generally 
pretty world, the profane as the sacred.  In a classic incident in the UK, 
Susanna Reid, once a cute bimbo at least, now some over-tanned and past it 
before 40 'orange person', was bought from the BBC to resurrect ratings on 
ITV. and pay her somewhere near £500,000.  Letters flooded in when they 
exhibited her behind a desk and "we" couldn't see her legs.

Top Gear is now in the toilet owning to Clarkson having some spat with a 
producer.  I think it's long past time to get real in sacrilegious protest. 
 Quite how these aliens make us invisible to each other I don't know yet.   
 They are overpaid and the 'sex' they offer is probably some kind of 
pheromone like that used by slaver ants.  One smell of Rosa's shoe is 
antidote - but now you'll all be thinking the wrong thing!
