    To truly erode away the limitations placed on females, you need to first remove the concept of masculine and feminine, which negatively reinforce the divide. Saying a motorcycle is masculine could be seen as anti-feminist in itself and definitely doesn't help the cause. Showing herself with the body of a motorcycle exemplifies the concept that a motorcycle is in fact not a masculine device.

    I won't delve into a super deep discussion on why I think feminism is a bias of convenience(alimony is a fine example). Suffice it to say, El Gatopod, I think you're probably reading too far into the picture and if anything, reading it backwards.

    How does a woman with the body of a motorcycle emasculate the motorcycle itself? Men love riding motorcycles. Men love riding women. Men would most certainly love riding a woman with the body of a motorcycle. It's totally masculine.

    With that being taken into consideration, I think Lady Gaga might have a ****.
