Black and White argument

This gorgeous-looking lovely is, apparently, Chad White:


He is, I understand, some sort of mannequin or model:


He certainly seems like a jolly sort of chap (and, unusually for one of his profession, he has not indulged in hideous pubic shaving. Which is nice).


He is part of that inversion where, until recently, naked women's bodies were plastered all over adverts in order to grab the attention and, it was hoped, thus sell entirely unrelated products. That is no longer acceptable in the modern world so, instead, we use naked men's bodies in similar ways:


Can I say how much I approve of this inversion?


Especially if it ensures we see a lot more of Chad White than would otherwise be the case.
