How about some Abercrombie?

Amanda Doerty, the Hot Abercrombie Chick is languishing on Blog*Spot. For those who haven't heard of her, she's a relatively new blogger and quite quickly becoming very popular. She specializes in insightful posts that encourage a lot of discussion. Plus she's currently beign accused of being a hoaxer - seems some people think she's a Hot Tommy Hilfiger Guy. Either way it's an excellent blog.



UPDATE
I like ta-tas. A LOT!! But that's not what I nominate Munuvians based upon.

The "Hot Abercrombie Chick" title is very tongue-in-cheek. (Mmm...tongues and cheeks...mmmmm).

I encountered links to the Chick at Harvey's place a couple of times. I was impressed because Harvey wasn't gushing over her virtual boobies (very odd for Harvey) but was actually linking to posts that had ongoing intelligent conversation and debate in their comments based on the intelligent conversation and debate! I don't read her site unless I come across a reference link but the posts that I have read were pretty intelligently written. She never made it to my blogroll (and never rated an in depth examination) because she's on Blogger and I just don't have the time for more regular reads that can't be pulled by my agregator.

Y'all should know by now that I dont' give a fig if a blogger is male, female, straight, gay, bi, human, whatever. Jawkins' attack on Michele didn't matter here because I wasn't nominating Amanda for showing boobs or even for talking about them. If I misjudged her (and that's entirely possible) then fine, don't invite her in. Just don't make the mistake of thinking that I nominated her because she titillates me.

question: how did you get the bullets in the munu blogroll?

There's a third list - pu.js :)

I absolutely, 100% hate her site. I appeal to the women-folk of Munu to weigh in here. I have no problem with chicks blogging, I have no problem with hot chicks blogging, but I absolutely hate the idea of a blond going: Ummm...this, like, philosophy thing? Um...will it catch on?

All the while alluding to her enormous tatas.

Please-please please please-do not do this.

Ladies of Munuviana?

I've liked her site the times I've been over to read it. I would say "Yay!!1"

There's some controversy going on about whether or not she's really a she. I just caught a snippet at Wizbang. Might be something to table for a bit and see how things shake out.

Hmm. Okay, we'll file this one away for the moment.

I'm a female munuvian and I like her site. I don't care if she is male or female. She draws some really interesting people to that site.

Shoot, I'm late getting to this, but you know I gotta back Helen up here. Absolutely no freakin' way and Jim Peacock, that you would do this right as the John Hawkins "Michele showed her boobies!" thing was going on is just poor, poor, poor. And I don't care if you put that down to cattiness or bitchery or PMS. Go right ahead because, you know, I've simply never heard that one before. Really, it'd be such a novelty.

My attitude towards the kind of woman who'd name her blog "Hot Abercrombie Chick" is, if you sell it with sex, I'm entitled to reject it on sex. I swear, even if I swung that way, there is just no way I could hold my head up and say I lusted for someone who used a goddamn clothing line in her blog name. Oh--and that clothing line is associated wiiiiiith? Anyone? Anyone?

I suppose if we had a hotvictoriassecretchick.blogspot.com blogger out there we'd be all for bringing her on board, too. Even if "her" was really a "him."

Are you sure you don't feel that way about me too, Ilka? Helen? Some of my content is WAY more controversial than hers/his/whatever.

Is this all about content?
Sex?
A name?

How on earth do you know what type of person she is, based on a name? Has anyone here met her? Or, are you just assuming, based on her name and perhaps reading one post, that you know her type. As far as I'm concerned, it's damn good marketing. It gets them there, but only the intelligent remain. Please, go look at her content a bit more. Moreover, look at who she draws there. It's not drooling frat boys.

I say Yay! again!!!

It appears that she's already got an MT account set up and is working on the design before she moves. So, it's a moot point, but it was an interesting discussion while it lasted.

Just don't make the mistake of thinking that I nominated her because she titillates me.

Okay! Okay! Mea culpa.

And in fact, I know that ain't so because I've seen pictures of the esteemed Mrs. Peacock. And while I don't really go that way, have you told her lately that she has the sort of sculptured cheekbones Michelangelo would have DIED to carve into marble?

Never mind what Mrs. P's bones must be doing, envy-wise, to the current crop of silicone-injected supermodels who had to PAY for that look.

That said, is it so very much to ask that we don't go all "sex sells?" I know sex sells. It's why I don't buy much popular fiction or watch much T.V.--it's not so much that I'm a prude; it's that they're determined to sell me the McDonald's of sex: lukewarm, all tease, no delivery, and besides, I specifically asked for no pickles, and look what they done put on my burger.

Listen, Abercrombie Chick: If we're so well-versed in deep thought and philosophy, could we maybe just trade on that? The "philosophy" part, I mean. Not the "hot" or the "Abercrombie" or even the "chick" part.

I'm being too particular, aren't I. Damnit. I always do that. Helen, bail me out here.

I'm late this time, sorry-

I just cannot support this chick. Sorry. I have no problem with blogging about sex-for fuck's sake, I do it. And I post pics of my panties. WIth me in them. But I don't dress up a sex spot in a pseudo-intellectual gown and say: "Right. Look how smart I am? Like my boobs? Shall we explore the meaning of life? Hmm...silly trolls."

I have checked out her site. About a half-dozen times, in fact. And each time I swear she is quoting a textbook and updating her picture.

Give me originality any day.

Do not give me "Amanda".
