Germaine Greer, a 68-year-old feminist woman, recently published a book filled with pictures of naked underage boys, titled "The Beautiful Boy".

Is this acceptable?
Would you find it creepy if a 68-year-old man published a book filled with naked 13-16 year old girls?
Why are so many feminists proponents of Germaine Greer, a disgusting pedophilic pervert? If you support Germaine Greer, then you support a pedophile.
The boy featured on the cover of Greer's book, Björn Andresen, stated that Greer's use of his picture was "distasteful" and that Greer never asked permission from him to use his picture.
Greer also stated that her purpose for objectifying the male gender in this book was to "advance women's reclamation of their capacity for, and right to, visual pleasure". Okay, that's all fine and dandy, but why not use photos of men 18 and over? Why use children?
