I know that those of us in the queer and sex-positive community are greatly saddened today to learn of the death of Bettie Page. Bettie Page was one of the first Playboy models, a dancer, and one of the first people who made “fetish” type sexuality (spanking, bondage, etc) “Ok” in the eyes of the mainstream. Of course, as the video shows, the stuff she did pales in comparison to the stuff today–but that makes me sorta sad actually. How beautiful is this stuff?
