Centrefold Venus of the Month 7: Tamara Santerra, December 1969




Well, we have just managed to sneak in our December centrefold before the end of the month. Agent Triple P considered a number of possibilities for this slot but given the amount of time we have left ourselves we didn't really have time to do the one we wanted (Cheryl Rixon).



However, Cheryl's story was more involved than we had time to do it justice so instead we have simply jumped back forty years to Tamara Santerra.



This pictorial appeared in UK Penthouse Volume 4 number 11 which was the December 1969 issue.  She appeared as the US Pet of the Month in the February 1970 issue.

 

Although Triple P is not really a bust man he does think that Tamara has the most perfect pair of chocolate dipped nipples!





Photographer Bill Crespinell was not a Penthouse regular but we think that he must have fallen in love with Tamara's bottom as well!






Crespinel was an American photographer who had also shot the centrefold for Playboy's Playmate of the Month for July 1961. Sheralee Conners.  He also shot for magazines like Pageant, Swank and Escapade in the early sixties.





According to the text accompanying her pictorial, she was 5'7" tall and a rather awe-inspiring 37-22-36.






She was just nineteen at the time the pictures were taken.



This final picture of Tamara is very much Triple P's favourite. Really big hips! A perfect ending for 2009!





If there are two things Agent Triple P likes it is dark Latin women and girls with nice bottoms. Tamara, who was actually Argentinean, combines the two perfectly.

Dancing Venus: Ola Jordan

Ola in excelsis


One of Agent Triple P's guilty pleasures is the really rather dreadful TV show Strictly Come Dancing. This is known as Dancing with the Stars in the rest of the world because although the format is a successful BBC export the other countries never had the original Come Dancing show and so the name would make no sense (and would probably be considered rude in America) elsewhere.

Grrowl!

If any one dancer on the show could make you Come Dancing then that dancer would be the gorgeous Ola Jordan. Polish poppet Ola has been livening up winter Saturday evenings for four years now.



Whoever came up with the idea of taking a long cancelled BBC show showcasing a very minority pastime and turning it into a ratings hit deserves a BBC medal. Everyone thought that the re-imagining of Dr Who was radical but it is nothing to what they have done with the original ballroom dancing show. Come Dancing ran from 1949 until 1998; making it one of the longest running TV series ever but it was dreadful! Now licensed in 30 countries Strictly has become the World's most popular television programme.



Ooh those thighs!


This series wasn't a classic and featured a bunch of so-called celebrities of whom Triple P had largely never heard. Nevertheless lacking an Alesha Dixon (I'm sorry but she is pointless behind a desk-you need to be able to see her thighs), a Kelly Brook or a Rachel Stevens we have had to console ourselves with the girlie professional dancers.







Foremost amongst these (and the BBC are gradually dumping the older girls in favour of younger models in their usual ageist way) is the gorgeous Ola. Now, many years ago Triple P's taste in women was rather different from today. He preferred short (under 5'4") curvy girls whereas now his taste tends to taller more athletic types.
Sex bomblet Ola is, therefore, at 5'4" (she claims on her website- I have seen her described as 5'3") a bit of a throwback for Triple P but maybe that's why we like her. There are much leggier professional dancers in the competition but for some reason we respond to Ola's Polish beauty, curvy figure (despite her short legs she looks great in a catsuit) and slightly bossy persona.




The essence of Ola'a appeal is easy to explain (at least for Triple P). Her small size makes her easily portable. She is nice and curvy and not as emaciated as some of the other dancers have looked. She has a fantastic posterior and a quite outstanding bust.
She is obviously very fit and her thighs look strong without being over muscled. There has been much comment that for this series her always abbeviated costumes have become even more abbreviated.


Of course they have, the BBC have been in a ratings war with the X-Factor. Although why the BBC, who don't take advertising and are funded by the taxpayer, have to chase ratings is beyond me. Shouldn't they just concentrate on making excellent programmes and leave all that grubby ratings chasing to the commercial stations?

Ola is very pretty, bordering on beautiful, and has nice long hair. Above all she obviously has a strong personality (polite way of saying she is bossy) and Triple P does like a forceful woman. Her poor "celebrity" dancing partners are regularly shown having stroppy Ola cut them down to size in training.




Sadly, Ola has never appeared in FHM or some other such magazine but now that she won the Strictly title (with her annoying "celebrity" partner yesterday) maybe there is some hope!






Now 27, she has been in the show for the last four series and you could see over the last few weeks how driven she was to win the title.






Well done Ola, Agent Triple P hopes to see you undressed in a Lads' Mag soon!

Polynesian Venuses




Further to our posting on our Adventures of Triple P website featuring the lovely, but slightly overdressed, Miss Tahiti, Hinatea Boosie, we feel that, as the snow starts to fall outside we can do with some more summery loveliness from the South Seas.




Much (if not all) of the image of Polynesian girls as smiling, beautiful, willing innocents living a life of uninhibited free love in their tropical paradise comes to us from the first European accounts of contacts with the islanders in the eighteenth century. The fact that many of these first contacts were made by the French mustn't be underestimated. Compared with British explorers the French writers uninhibited descriptions of the girls they found focus much more on the local girls' charms than their British equivalents.



Bougainville's frigate La Boudeuse


Many of these accounts originate from the voyage organised by Louis-Antoine, Comte de Bougainville ( 1729-1811). In 1766 Louis XV granted Bougainville permission to attempt to be the first French explorer to circumnavigate the globe.



Bougainville's two ships anchored off Tahiti


Bougainville left Nantes on 15 November 1766 with two ships: the frigate La Boudeuse and l'Étoile (the storeship for the voyage which actually sailed a little later). They travelled to South America first and didn't get into the Pacific until over a year later on 26th January 1768. They didn't see land again until March 21st when they came across the small group of islands that make up Vahitahi. By the beginning of April they had arrived at what the French called Nouvelle-Cythere and the locals called Tahiti.


The Prince of Nassau has some cat trouble


Travelling with Bougainville was Charles Orthon, Prince de Nassau-Siegen who had had an exciting encounter with a jaguar during a stop in South America. An even more exciting encounter awaited him on Tahiti.

On April 7th 1768 Nassau he had the following experience:

"These Indians offered us women as being the objects they most cherished, undeniably these well deserved this distinction. They each in turn used all their charms to please us. Here is one example. I was strolling in a charming place, carpets of greenery, pleasant groves, the gentle murmur of streams inspired love in this delicious spot. I was caught there by the rain. I sheltered in a small house where I found six of the prettiest girls in the locality.





They welcomed me with all the gentleness this charming sex can display. Each one removed her clothing, an adornment which is bothersome for pleasure and, spreading all their charms, showed me in detail the gracefulness and contours of the most perfect bodies. They also removed my clothing. The whiteness of a European body delighted them. They hastened to see whether I was made like the locals and pleasure quickened this research. Many were the kisses, many the tender caresses I received! Throughout this scene, an Indian was playing a tender tune on his flute. A crowd of others had lined up around the house, solely preoccupied with the spectacle. We were living amidst this gentle nation like allies and friends. "


Bougainville meets the locals: "Forget the Ferrero-Rocher I'd rather have a brace of those fine Vahines!"


Other European ships found similar enticements but many of the British officers refused to be tempted (or else failed to write about it!). The same could not be said of the sailors, who were delighted to find these young girls being offered to them or have them swim out to their ships. These actions changed the nature of the islands and the lives of their women. Initially reports seem to indicate that girls were offered to the captains and officers by the elders as a sort of welcome gift (like a basket of fruit in your hotel, perhaps). The sailors wanted the same treatment and the locals realised that by using the girls to provide sexual favours they could elicit goods in return.





One of Bougainville's men, Charles-Félix-Pierre Fesche also wrote accounts of encounters with the local women. First he describes a girl being bought to the ship in an outrigger canoe as soon as they had anchored.

"She was tall and well-made. In her colour she was as white as any Spanish lady might wish. Many of our luxurious men, plainly destitute of provisions for such many months, were uncommonly longing. They came presently near, looked, admired and touched. Soon, the flimsy veil which concealed the lures from their eyes in honour of modesty which may perhaps be condemned, was torn away and more readily it is true to say by the Indian nymph goddess herself than by our men."





Later whilst exploring the local settlement a young girl tries to tempt the sailors to have sex. Most resist except for one bolder Frenchman who started to caress her:





"A much determined hand guided by love made its course towards two upright and burgeoning fruits as deserving as those of Helen’s of serving as models of the highest sort and this because of their incomparable shape and beauty of their form. By fortune’s gift, the hand then travelled onwards and fell upon hidden lures under the covering of a band of their cloth, which soon was removed by the girl herself who revealed herself to our eyes as naked as Eve before the fall."




Fesche later explains that the married women did not grant their favours, but that “those who are unmarried are free and prostitute themselves with whomever takes their fancy, and so one can appreciate the kind of life most of the French led in this fortunate island”. It was certainly the case that the women being offered to the sailors were very young and the older women did not behave in the same way towards the sailors.





Later, it turns out that the wily locals were bringing pretty girls on board to distract the sailors whilst they made off with interesting items from the ships.





After nine days on this paradise the French moved on to Samoa and what would become known as the New Hebrides. The expedition returned to France on March 16th 1769 and the accounts written of the voyage essentially created the reputation of Tahiti and Polynesia as a paradise of beauty, abundance and sensuality.





There was an interesting footnote to the voyage. The botanist Philibert Commerçon was with the expedition and his valet and assistant, Jean Baré had been helping him take samples whenever they made landfall. However when Baré landed on Tahiti he was immediately surrounded by locals who declared that he was a woman. Back on board Baré confessed that he was really Jeanne not Jean. She, therefore, went on to become the first woman to circumnavigate the globe. How the Tahitians could spot this immediately whilst a shipload of Frenchmen who had been cooped up for over a year with her did not is an interesting question.

British crews were no less immune to the charms of the locals even if they were a little more circimspect in their descriptions as to what they got up to. Nevertheless, George Forster, who took part in Captain Cook's second voyage wrote in 1774:

"The simplicity of a dress which exposed to view a well-proportioned bosom, and delicate arms might also contirbute to fan their amorous fire; and the view of several of these nymphs swimming nimbly round the ship, such as nature had formed them, was perhaps more than sufficient to subvert the little reason that a mariner might have left to govern his passions."


The locals greet the HMS Bounty


Twenty years later it was Tahiti that the crew of HMS Bounty spent nine months on trying to cultivate breadfruit in an agricultual experiment designed to transplant the crop to the Caribbean.

Shortly after leaving the island they munitied against Captain William Bligh (who had been Cook's sailing master) and many returned to their local women on Tahiti. Another group kidnapped local women and took them to Pitcairn Island where their descendents live to this day.

The development of photography in the middle of the nineteenth century enabled these exotic creatures to be captured in all their finery such as this Samoan princess

.


The experiences of American troops returning home from the South Pacific after World War 2 helped contribute to an image of Polynesian women in the US not dissimilar to the way the British thought of Scandinavian girls during the 1960s:happily uninhibited about sex in a way the women at home just weren't.




In the 1950s and 1960s when Tiki Culture swept America even the mens magazines of the time took the opportunity to inject a bit of South Seas exoticism into their pages. It's no coincidence that the swimming pool at the Playboy Mansion in Chicago was done in Tiki style.

Sexy Vahines from the Fifties

In truth, some of the ethnic background of many of these Tiki themed restaurants was a bit muddled. Here we see a South Sea Island beauty somehow mixed up with Caribbean zombies.




Ocean liner operators and airlines in the thirties, forties and fifties were well aware of the key attractions of Polynesia to their potential clients.







Even today half dressed, smiling, long-haired beauties feature disproportionately in tourist advertising. Tahiti being French half-naked girls in postcards are also popular!

This pert specimen actually came off a tourism website






One of the strongest cultural images of Tahiti today is the ōteʻa dance often, these days, performed by lines of girls in grass skirts (or, more likely, synthetic ones) with the only musical accompaniment being drumming.



Latterly, South Seas dance contests have grown up across the Pacific and these tend to feature the girls in even more abbreviated fabric skirts.






It is a faster, more aggressive dance than the more stately Hawaiian Hula and features rapid hip movement contrasting with graceful arm movements. Just search for "Corrine" and "Tahitian dancing" on YouTube so see a Tahitian dancing champion in scintillating action...









So a big thank you to Polynesian girls; who have become semi-mythical creatures of sensuality, passion and beauty in a way that is unmatched throughout the world. There is no better antidote to a freezing winter day!
