I was alerted to the No More Page Three campaign quite early on via a friend on Facebook. I had not heard of it before, other than this one friend who "invited" me to sign. I read and signed and shared, but I immediately worried that the campaign wouldn't be taken seriously, and worried even about my own facebook friends and relatives and husband. Whether they would think it was a ridiculous quest. I worried that it was too big a task to be taken seriously and I was in awe of anyone who was brave enough to take on such a challenge. I'm so so glad that such brave people exist and I'm so so proud that people can and are uniting and fighting against this. Big trees happen from small acorns and I really wish that people would realise this rather than sit on their backsides and think nothing can ever be done. I have seen so much corrected in my lifetime through people power and this is a total history making exercise. The people who say Page Three is "Not Porn", OK, they may be correct in that it is not the hardcore pornography that is so currently prevalent (how that makes it ok is beyond me) and that there are more pressing matters in the world. Yes, there are SO many pressing matters in the world: hunger, thirst, poverty, violence. Violence against women and children often stems from a basic misogynistic view. The normalisation of Page Three is so toxic and I think that people are so used to this normalisation that it's hard to see this. I have a three year old son and luckily he has never come across a copy of the Sun... He is three, he understands the world on a really basic level but yet he absorbs everything, because he is three. If he came across a topless picture of a woman in a discarded paper in a park he is unlikely to ignore it or think "I shouldn't have bought that paper, that's not for three year olds". Images are powerful. Advertising executives know this. The world is hard enough. We should be working together to bring our children up in a world which is good for them.
