In the Sunday Tribune there's an article on Tessa Fowler.
Now, some people who read this right away are thinking one thing. . . and some quite another.
The article was on the woman predator hunter by that name. It was an interesting article (which I now know had also been in the Powell newspaper and the Wyoming Business Journal). Anyhow, the article was interesting and she was wearing a hat made out of a wolf.
You don't see wolf hats that often. An upcoming long delayed post on "sustainable clothing", a trend in the "fashion industry" will be vague related to this.
Anyhow, as is often the case, I had lots and lots of tabs open on my computer at the time and one of them was one I'd be running searching for a date, September 13, 1920. After I run the date search, I hit images, as I tend to find the interesting entries for the date there. I often forget that I've done that and if I'm going to run a search, I end up running it from there and then switch to "All". I was curious if Fowler, the wolf hat wearing lady, had a website or a blog, as it might be interesting and it might be one of the ones I might link in on the right side of this website.
Yikes.
What I didn't know is that if you enter a search for "Tessa Fowler" you'll pull up lots of photos right away.
But not of wolf hunting Tessa Fowler, but rather some Tessa Fowler who is making a living showing the world her (rather large) boobs.
I guess I can't expect the paper to warn, or even know, of this. Well, I guess they actually can. I'd have to guess a reporter, before writing an article, does a little net research and I'm sure that naked Tessa Fowler shows up a lot more often in the Google matrix than wolf hat wearing Tessa Fowler.
Wolf hat wearing Tessa Fowler must also know that. Indeed, after the "yikes" and immediate backtracking on my browser, I found that hunting Fowler is also a photographer (something the article in the paper noted) and she has, predictably, an on line gallery called Mountain Girl Photography and an Instagram page by the same name (which I got to by going to Instagram and entering "Mountain Girl Photography". . . not "Tessa Fowler"). Anyhow, I'd think that the shared name must be embarrassing for photographer Fowler and probably unknown to photographed Fowler.
Indeed, I'd also think that she'd want to make that known, but how do you do that? It's not like you introduce yourself and say "Hello! I'm a serious person. . . not somebody prostituting my image!"
Anyhow, this gets back to a topic that I've addressed here before, and while this post has been written slightly tongue in cheek, it's a serious one on multiple levels.
First I'd note, eye candy Fowler is a real human being. Even in my extraordinarily brief encounter with her image, she looks like a nice person. She has a pretty smile and sort of looks like a girl you might know in a college class or who works at a local restaurant. . . sort of that girl next store appearance, and she has a pretty smile. Now all that is a lot to pick up in a few seconds of an accidental encounter, but however she ended up where she is, it has to be a soul sucking dispiriting depression line of work to be known principally for your tits and selling your image so that men all over can sit in front of the computer and imagine themselves having you.
Seriously.
What must that do to your psyche? It has to be damaging.
And damaging to the men as well.
I noted this the other day in our way over long post on the impacts of the Coronavirus, but among the plethora of impacts the virus is having, according to those who track such things, is an epidemic of loneliness which, in part is expressing itself in some quarters by a tidal wave of Internet pornography use. Indeed, my guess is that the pandemic has been good for whomever it is who hawks pinup Fowler's images on the net. Anyhow, I don't know who is popular in this arena and who isn't, and don't want to, but I'd bet that centerfold Fowler has her fans as she is pretty, at least based on her brief appearance on the computer monitor, as opposed to sort of freakish, as the late Jane Mansfield was. So, those viewers, in their heart of hearts, likely see her as an ideal other. The mate they wish they had or imagine, rather than the real girls they know. Those girls who aren't always smiling and ready, who get sick, who have tempers, and who nature hasn't endowed with large. . .well you get the point.
Indeed, according to some, the infantilism of American men today is partially attributable to people like the cheesecake Fowler and the Internet mediums that are selling her. And they are doing just that. Somehow somebody is making money on that Fowler's willingness to take her clothes off, or she wouldn't be doing it. While she no doubt doesn't think of herself that way, she's prostituting herself in that fashion. But for the recipients of her wars on the net, it's likely pretty cheap monetarily, if not psychologically, for most. Psychologically, it takes a heavy toll, however, as it delays for at least some entering into the real adult world, some forever.
And it also cheapens the real relationship between men and women, which is what both want. At least when she started down this path, that's likely what the smiling topless Fowler wanted too. At some point, however, carrying the freight of making a living by being an computer concubine has to really take its toll. I don't know if its been studied, and I'm not going to research it, but I'd guess you can't do that for long without having a lot of regrets.
Which means she should get out, if she's still in. And for all I know, not having known of her, maybe she has. I really hope so. I hope that she dropped out of pornography, went to community college, met some nice guy who was accepting of her past, gained twenty pounds, and is living a decent life with three kids and a dog. If she hasn't, she should drop out now and pursue that path. It'd be better for everyone.
Which brings us pack to wolf hunting Fowler. She's quite attractive to and has a really nice smile as well. Having now been in the paper, which means the net, my guess is that she'll be the subject of all sorts of abusive comments. She shouldn't be. She looks really interesting and is approaching life honestly and in reality. And as an attractive woman who isn't a pinup, well, she frankly looks more interesting.
