The big debate: Should we have an issue with the 'come hither' looks in this photo?

This week’s Debrief Daily podcast gets, well, a little bit sexy.

Rebecca Huntley and I discuss why women in the media are always transformed into vamps and suckers.

Some cases in point: Amy Schumer sucking a robot’s finger, Caitlin Stacey’s fight with the Good Weekend for wanting her nude (and nude only), and the ABC’s newswomen in Sunday Life looking unrecognisable. What’s going on here – and was it ever like this?

Emma Alberici calls in from the cold meats section of Coles to tell us what really went on in the photo shoot with the ABC's top female news journalists, gives us her opinion of how they looked and reveals just how often the hair needed fluffing.

The cover in question.

You can hear it here on iTunes and below on soundcloud.

Rebecca Huntley and I also discuss whether single sex schools make Australia more of a single sex society and why we organise our blokes play dates.

Plus we have found the one politician in the country who puts some fire in our bellies and reveal why we are a bit cross at the wonderful J.K. Rowling.
