Just to show that we appreciate more than the female form round these parts, dig this beauty, none other than the great Baryshnikov.

Yeah, dig those nipples... or is that a rash?

Did I dream that he and Gregory Hines starred in a movie together in the 80's?

Oy, that movie was a bomb.

I have to imagine that many of the other Yankees blogs out there would not have responded to questions regarding the objectification of women so judiciously. You sir, Mr. Belth, are a gentleman and a scholar. The quality of the Banter and Banterers never ceases to amaze.

Love!! He was gorgeous in The Turning Point. He was my fave back in the day. White Nights? Feh! Can't have it all.

3) The funny thing is that we objectify men all the time, appreciating the sensuality of these athletes we call our heroes, but we just don't put a name to it.

7) Hadn't connected those dots on my own, but so true. I guess the life-sized A-Rod/Centaur oil painting hanging over my bed would appropriately be labeled as a sort of objectification.

[6] I still think he his. :-)

yeah, White Nights was not a cinematic masterpiece, but oh, the dancing! The dancing was amazing!
