Over on Comment is Free I posted a piece about the “raunch culture” debate, and the way that it has morphed into tutting from (generally) older women about what younger women are wearing, which reminds me uncomfortably of my youth.

If you want to show off your belly-button piercing, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be allowed to – and whatever your figure. (I’m astonished at how often people criticising this sort of attire suggest that it is OK on young and svelte figures, but not on anyone else.)
