That’s a line from “Shawshank Redemption”. It’s when Andy Dushane disappears from his cell and the warden is talking to the Raquel Welch poster hanging on the wall.

What is so pathetically damning about the current culture is that you now really have to rely on old tv-shows and old movies of the past to actually witness displays of genuine manliness. And by “manliness,” I mean the gamut from sturdy toughness like James Arness in “Gunsmoke” to the subtle masculine decency/morality of Robert Young in “Father Knows Best.”

This.

I feel it would be best if Raquel and I were to get together over cocktails to discuss this in greater depth.

Raquel, if you are a Freeper (and I will bet you are), message me baby so we can make arrangements. For you I am available 24/7.

Unfortunately, in today’s world, unless you’re an alpha male, flirting and relating to the female gender is nearly impossible to do.


I happen to think that being an “Alpha Male” is not about money or looks, but about attitude. It’s a choice in how you relate to women.

That hasn’t been my experience. My experience has been rather bloody, to the point, where it’s not worth my time or attention.

I think it means she’s full of crap. What she did in her earlier years was considered porn and filth then, now she’s whining about it. Now, she’s 71 and still wants to be a sex symbol. Old granny hag can shut her mouth along with the majority of folks here.

I can’t argue with anything she says......and she’s still hot in my book.

Her daughter, Tahnee Welch (Cocoon & Cocoon: The Return) is a knockout also.

She has a beautiful mind as well.

There is some irony in having Raquel Welsh say this, but she is absolutely right.

It’s fairly obvious that rampant porn is demeaning to women, and turns them into “sex objects.”

Less obvious, but certainly true, is that it is destructive to men.

Good for Rachel,
Next on the agenda by the smut industry is:

21. Man/Boy promotions
22. Child porn
23. Insest
24. Beastiality

Ditto. There is nothing like Gunsmoke on anymore - or Bonanza, etc. Values were reinforced. Men were men.

Huh? It's been 40 years since I have been out 'flirting' and I never have been in the Alpha Male category. But I do get out and about and a nice guy can still find a nice girl with no problem.

I think maybe you're doing something wrong. Popular culture aside, people are still people.

Tawnee Welch seems a lot less shy judging by Google Images. BBL, I'm off to annihilate myself.

This whole family is an even better argument against birth control than anything Santorum's been saying.

Raquel Welch is great. She is also right on.

Totally agree.

I was very impressed with that interview. She is smart, funny, and non-egotistical.

Her guest role on Seinfeld (15 years ago?) was hilarious.

She may be right about the effect of porn, but I wish she'd apply her comments a little more selectively. I doubt most of us are drooling into our keyboards.

But I could be wrong - maybe most guys are regularly cruising porn sites.
