Bettie Page Left The Planet

Posted December 12th, 2008 by Carlin

Bettie Page died today at 85.  She was just a pin up model but she broke barriers.  Not many women had the nerve to be a fetish model in her era.  Dita Von Teese never had to testify before Congress.

I remember finding one of my grandfather's Playboy magazines and finding the image of Bettie wearing nothing but a santa hat pinning an ornament on a xmas tree.  I sat there for hours looking at her.  It was her joy and sexual confidence.  She looked so different than the other women in the magazine.  She was happy.  She was sexually expressive.  And she was powerful.
