The Pinup is as popular today as it ever was. However the reigning queens have nothing on the ultimate standard Ms Bettie Page. Bettie's pinups are a fresh today as they were nearly seventy years ago - none of today's pinups will be able to say the same in seventy years. The stereotype is that of pinup models being quite dense and unintelligent - unfortunately some are and hence the stereotype. There are some that are quite intelligent, however, Ms Page being one of them (receiving a full scholarship to the college of her choice) and that is what makes the joke above work on more than one level.
