Highly stylized with
messages beyond the image, pop art
took on the form of kitsch in order
to create something meaningful.
Making it harder for the critics to
discern art from commercial work and
pornography. Here, at The Pinup
Blog, We much rather understand than
discern, that’s why Pop Art Pinup
Girls is one of your top 10 most
read articles!
You pinup lovers
aren’t always super serious.
Sometimes you just like to think
happy, sexy thoughts. A couple of
weeks ago, for example, we delved
into the sexy side of Disney.
Animated beefcake and cheesecake
graced our computer screens and made
us hide Tinkerbell from the kiddies.
An oldy, but a
goody. One of the most exiting
things is to go out on the virtual
street and see what the grassroots
trends are. DeviantART hosts
professional artists and hobbyists,
alike; All ages, genders and colors.
The artists’ diversity is mirrored
in their work, and I can honestly
say that compiling this article was
one of the most interesting research
processes I’ve had the pleasure of
working on, for this blog.
Oh! How you
love your oldies and goodies. It’s
vintage and retro all the way, with
these ads from way back when. An
interesting look at junk food, bras
and other evils, as presented
through the irresistible pinup
prism.
Diversity
is the name of the game and you guys
and girls chose BBW. Skinny chicks
don’t reign supreme, in the pinup
realm. Full figured ladies with an
attitude and a big smile are what
makes cheesecake what it is, and
this article gives a few examples of
vintage and neo pinups of flesh.
Nothing like a good
101 course to wrap your mind around
a subject. You seem to love The
Pinup Glossary, a mainstay on the
front page. I’ll just remind all you
glamor scholars that if you feel
there are entries that should be
added to the glossary, let me know
via 
Sexy mothers is
another high ranking favorite of
yours. I can’t say I blame you. It’s
a controversial issue for some
reason, but I find pregnant women
fascinating, beautiful and sexy. On
second thought, maybe it’s not that
controversial, because most of you
agree with me!
Taking us around the
world, you chose your next
destination to be Japan. Manga and
anime pinups are an intriguing
addition to any pinup article, but
definitely a developed art form, in
itself. This is my one article that
focuses solely on Japanese art, and
doesn’t rely on its western
counterpart, to construct a full and
fascinating picture.
Native american
pinups are some of the most
beautiful I’ve posted, and without a
doubt most befitting the word
“exotic”. “Exoticness” and
“otherness” has always fueled the
sexual imagination, for better or
worse, and this article looks
exactly at that.
We’ve
traveled around the world, beyond
cultures and history. We come to the
end of this list and travel to
something old-school and very
Western- the school teacher fetish.
It’s one of those extra naughty,
extra taboos, and makes for a fun
grand finale.
