Behind the times

Can't stop looking at this cover of the past, the present and the future. 
It's interesting that those three points in time are visualized in such a similar way. 
Perhaps nothing really changes after all. 



There's also something about this cover that saddens me and I can't pinpoint exactly what it is. Is it the knowledge that very few women behave like this in their natural habitat? Is it that their whole focus is directed to please the male gaze?

Is it the prospect of woman as a cute, ready-to-please species?

Here's a different image of three (even more naked) ladies that leaves me with a whole different, much better feeling.  This is something I could see myself doing. Running into the sunset sea, looking forwards, not backwards.
