Would you find a pin up girl sticker on a guitar misogynistic?

I'm not a womanizer or sexist by any means. I've just got a stratocaster that im trying to get a "throw-back" vintage look on, and back in the day thats what people did.
i'm talking tasteful, fully clothed, 1940s style. Not the ones now where the girls are bent over **** and theres a bunch of fire and a random skull.

no, pin up girls are classic. if you had something that said “women are my slaves” then you might be in a bit of trouble

No, retro pinup stickers are cool.
Pamela Anderson posters are misogynistic.

That’s not necessarily mysognist… after all, Bettie Page (the queen of the pin-ups) still has stickers and posters and t-shirts with her image everywhere you look. If it’s a big concern, you could always balance out a couple of vintage pin-up girls with a well-placed sticker featuring 1940’s feminist icon “Rosie the Riveter”…

maybe a little bit, but who cares. if someone is offended by a pin up girl sticker, they must be really uptight or something. pin-up girls are beautiful to me and glorify women. go for it and express yourself. isn’t that what music is about?

Its really a classic kind of thing. Especially with older strats and fender players in general. Any vintage lover would appreciate. As long as its not making the girl look unintelligent then i dont really think its misogynistic, its more artistic.

No reflection on you, or women but, i’m a guitarist but
definitely not . . .
I have to much respect for my instrument, i use to make
a living as a rock guitarist in a younger day, funny you
mention this cause back then a ***** asked me that
at a club i was playing since as you say it was in vogue
to do that then, i gave her the same answer . . .
I don’t like that anymore than when i read guitar magazines
and the advertisement has a ***** broad holding a guitar
between her legs, it’s really degrading to the art form, not to
mention, insulting to ones intelligence, as for the women in
the add, that’s her choice as to how far she’ll go 2 make a buck . . .
