I don't see how making money because men are shallow creatures makes a woman a whore. Maybe if they work for EA. It's great work if you can get it, beats flipping burgers. Kudos to E3 for cleaning up the act, though, it was getting ridiculous.

Men want sex all the time because they are shallow too. And some women make money out of that. We call them 'whores'. But, really, you've fallen into the age old trap of caring. Shouldn't do that. I thought Schild's Booth Babe Piece was the most honest thing he's ever printed. :)

Do we really want to go there again ?

Don't you mean "pretty much all women"? There's just differences in the payment options. Some just charge a lump sum, while others use an installment plan.

Apparently someone DID want to go there. Let's all ignore him.
The 'booth babe protest' photo might become my new desktop. What's the story behind that one? Were some of them unable to find work this year due to the crackdown?

I don't get that either, were they against booth babes because it is sexist/exploitive? Or were they booth babes themselves and protesting at having to cover up more?

From their signs it looks like they were protesting in favor of booth babes. "Bikinis > bullets" - woo! :-D

That was totally a guess.
I actually believe it was Underworld II, with the most out-of-place sex scene Ever.

On the other side of their signs they had advertisements for something called "E3 Outpost", basically they were outside booth babes.

This is the sad fate of all those young women that went to modelling school only to find out that they didn't have the "stuff" to become models. I guess this is still a better way to make an honest living than strip clubs or porn.

Sometimes they have more than enough, but the fashion industry simply wants tall and waifish. So it's booth babing, Budweiser girl, or the Sears catalog for them.

I've got a friend (aspiring model, pretty hot) who works as a booth babe now and then, mostly at auto shows. She's a college graduate with other options, so I figure it can't be all that bad or she'd be doing something else.

I don't blame your friend. If I had any inkling I could pull it off, I would seriously consider it as a way to supplement my income.

Yeah, I have a Japanese friend who does random modeling like that as well (car shows, cell phone ad's). She graduated college with a 3.95 GPA in International Economics. Some people just like it.

If someone paid me to stand around dressed as, say, Conan, at one of these things, and I had the body to pull off Conan (shut up), I wouldn't have a second thought about it. Course, if I was going to get groped by smelly geek boys... that might change my mind. Depends on the money.

Yar. If someone paid me to go to these things, full stop, I'd have no second thoughts.
Okay, maybe I'd have second thoughts if it involved vaseline, an ear of corn and anyone from Sigil.
