In this topic, it was discussed about how the pinups of the 1950s and 60s only showed a woman's physical beauty but didn't care too much about her personality and intellect.
A photo of, who I believe Poet said was his long-time girlfriend, was done with the intention of showing that one is not exclusive of the other. It was meant to show the beauty of a woman inside along with her intellect, and not just the beauty outside, which is what the media only shows today. Poet said these pictures were taken by a woman and was meant to be from a feminist point of view.
