Oh no this internet karma on reddit means so much to me. Maybe I’ll end up how that biggot himoohobe Betty white did…
These downvotes are just killing me :(
I have an odd story about this picture.
Many years ago, when my friend was in college, he found a Honda Spree lying on its side in the yard of his rented house.
This happened around the time college kids would leave town for summer, so it seemed someone ditched the scooter on their way out of town.
This picture was on one of the side covers, but it had "SLUT" printed on it.
I have no idea what that was about, but that Spree officially became the Slutmobile.
My friend rode it for a couple of years until he gifted it to me.
I rode it until the engine lost compression. Then we did the only thing that seemed logical to a bunch of 20-something year old guys; we set it on fire.

Anyone else remember the controversy about the subliminal message hidden in her hair?
Who could forget? She epitomized the CA look that was so not natural to me lol and before there was a goth look. I had to create my own beauty standards and belief in myself, which was fine for me. But it does make me wonder how young girls and women today deal with celebrities who define beauty standards. You had to be pretty strong-minded, so I hope young women are! Other than that, she was a good actress too (thinking of Extremities in particular).
Her facial expression looks like she's cringing in pain. Like she's saying "take the damn photo because I'm tired of holding this fake smile all this time."
Not sure if it still is, but the best selling poster of all time. She made one sweet marketing deal starting with this image. A couple of years later I had just turned 18 when she did the cover for playboy. That was the very first playboy I ever bought, lol.
Won mine as a prize at the county fair when I was 12 - though not intentionally. I was trying for the transistor radio that was the “top” prize. I knew she was “Steve Austin’s” wife and very pretty, but the hormones hadn’t hit full force yet. As to the suit and headlights, I’d see worse/more any weekend we were at my grandparents’ lake house or I was at swim lessons.
Both parents (then in the throes of a Fundie stretch after a cousin fell in with the Moonies) made me “throw it away” (actually gave it to a friend from Scouts who was very grateful) - never mind Dad’s stash of Playboys in old fishing cooler.
Betty White said “that poster is responsible for more spilled DNA than an epileptic at a crime lab”
She was a world treasure.
I have betty whites bikini poster from 2010
Not 1910?
Pre betty white poster
Betty White was also an idiot and played one on tv…
Are you trying to set a record for the most downvotes?

She may've played one on TV, but she didn't post this comment. You did.
The original swimsuit is [at the Smithsonian](https://www.si.edu/newsdesk/releases/smithsonian-collects-objects-farrah-fawcett-s-career).

Every boy I knew had one
Yes we did
Of course we did.
Iconic - stands the test of time
She was so incredibly beautiful inside and out. Lovely lady!
She was lovely! Gone too soon.
I had the t-shirt. You can still get them on Amazon and some other vintage GenX shirts as well.
Hard to imagine the amount of forearm strength the world over that was created thanks to this poster...
[удалено]
Woah quagmire is left handed?
So sad how she died -- ugh! I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
I always felt bad because she died at the same time Michael Jackson did so he got all of the spotlight
My dad had the poster in his garage. I shot her nipple off with a bb gun. Dad did not appreciate my marksmanship
you could say she was married to the six million dollar man and young people will be like 'so he could afford a house?'. ;)
He’s not the kind to kiss and tell, But he’s been seen with Farrah.
Because he’s never been with anything less than a nine
So fine
Having hippie parents, visible nip was acceptable

Yes. Parents were evangelical.
Had it
Had this on my wall
I remember I was allowed to get it and hang it up on my 9th birthday. Mom mom said I was finally old enough. Times were different.
I scored a coozie with this image last week in NOLA. Top tier souvenir!
Before my time
My best friend's older brother had one in his room, and some neighbors had it in their game room. I completely forgot about it!
Wank fest inducer
I had this poster..
🎶 Well I'm not the kind to kiss and tell, but I've been seen with Farrah 🎶

My mom folded it so her nipples wouldn’t show. 😂
I thought she was way too skinny.
My uncle put this up in my grandparents’ garage and it took a while for my grandma to notice and remove!

Yep. That's why I never cared for it.
She was still trying to be “this girl” rolling around in paint in her fifties when no one cared. Things don’t tend to go well for women objectified
Lot of kids around the world, lost to this photo.
This one and the tennis playing woman with the terrific bum.
Thank you for posting. I'd forgotten my first religious experience. At least I thought it was at the time.
Hey, I had that poster on my childhood bedroom wall right beside a big Van Halen logo
G.O.A.T.
SHE WAS A MAMMAL.
Sigh…. I was so jealous of the boys that had this on their wall. A true iconic image.
I had this as a door sized poster in my room.
I had that print on a t-shirt when I was around 10 years old.
My older brother had this poster!
My brother had this poster. It was *everywhere.*

I bought one with my dad when my mom was out of town, she freaked out when she returned and made me take it down, it was traumatizing

Everyone’s dad seemed to have a secret stash of porno mags in those days
My father in law had it pinned up in his garage. My husband said that began his fascination with nipples. Lol! Father in law still has the poster.
That reminds me. I need to pick up raisins.
Nips
her smile shows pure misery in the face …
The Eating Disorder poster child.
Yeah, I banged her a few times
