I would like to talk about the reading Pop Culture Gone Wild by Jessica Valenti. I totally agree with her that pop culture has become "pornified". I also agree that it is sad that little girls are buying playboy bunny goods and bringing them to school, especially when they don't really fully understand what they are representing. It is sending the message to these industries that it is ok to target little girls. I just can't believe they would try and target girls, and I really can't believe that their parents would allow that. It makes you wonder. I believe that the parents are helping this "pornified" image of pop by allowing their children to associate with the logo. I would also like to note that it is true that men like women that claim to be virgins, however if you claim to be one and then don't give in to it, the girls are considered prude. I mean what is this world coming to. Can't people make up their minds of what they want. It was like the clip we watched from Glee. He wanted his girlfriend to dress sexier, and when she did he did not approve and wanted her to change. I just don't get it!!!!

  1. I totally agree with you on this one, little girls should not be dressing like older women, or buying playboy items, its disgusting what the pop culture is doing to the younger generation.

  2. Do you really think Playboy cares who's buying their items? No, all they care about is profit and who is to blame them? Thats what their business is trying to do is sell stuff for the consumer. The ones to blame are by far the parents who if they have any respect for themselves and their children would not allow their teenager to wear things that represent Sex, Porn, Beer, or anything else that is considered "adult content". Which that term itself is a joke. Because just because your an adult doesn't make Porn okay, or Sex before marriage accepted, or getting drunk socially cool. I think the parents need to step it up a notch and set an example for their kids and raise them into caring and responsible adults so maybe one day this world will not corrupt itself, but be united all together.
