When Carpenter's "Man's Best Friend" cover sparked debates about female empowerment versus male gaze pandering, Simon stepped forward and told Rolling Stone with perfect perspective: "She's not doing anything outrageous. It seems tame." Coming from someone who literally broke department store policies with her own provocative artwork, that's quite the endorsement.

Seeff himself was surprised by the reaction: "No one thought about what it might convey. It was a fascinating, unique image and it left a lot to the imagination." The controversy that followed feels eerily familiar to Carpenter's current situation – critics debated its meaning, stores considered banning it, and feminists argued over its message.

Simon's advice to Carpenter reflects hard-earned wisdom: "Any press is good press, so I wouldn't worry about the press. She's so beautiful, and she should be proud of herself and the way she looks."
What strikes me most is how Simon's support represents the best of intergenerational female solidarity. She's not just defending Carpenter; she's providing context that only someone who survived identical criticism could offer.
