why you can argue that fashion and pornography are the same thing...

so here is an awesome quote from albini, real thought piece:

“I think fashion is repulsive. The whole idea that someone else can make clothing that is supposed to be in style and make other people look good is ridiculous. It sickens me to think that there is an industry that plays to the low self-esteem of the general public. I would like the fashion industry to collapse. I think it plays to the most superficial, most insecure parts of human nature. I hope GQ as a magazine fails. I hope that all of these people who make a living by looking pretty are eventually made destitute or forced to do something of substance. At least pornography has a function.”

that is accurate. But, fashion can make people look better, slimmer, more hour glassed, causing boners, the same way pornography does, and so it also facilitates sex. what he really did was explain to women why men resent the fact that they spend money on clothing - that may or may not be for them but pornography always is.
