Where do you draw the line though? How much exposure to this "media" does it take? Under what circumstances would a particular woman be open to this influence and/or how would that translate into their lives?Danger said:I did some reflection on this topic and I do believe at some level that the media is the source of a lot of this.
Basically, the shows that are entertainment for the 30-40 something woman, is at the same time training and indoctrination for the early teen girls.
In an earlier post I mentioned how women love reality tv, whether it's the hood rat with 5 bastards or the responsible woman who seems to have her head screwed on straight. They all love it for the same reasons.
Honestly, I don't think the media is a significant source. I believe it's a combination of government and corporations who exploit our current conditions to turn a profit, and it simply trickles down from there.
Women, as well as men, will always push boundaries, it's what we do. There is "incentive" for Kim to behave the way she does, just like there's incentive for the local hood rat to have 5 kids that you and I help provide for through taxes.
I think of the media as more of a consequence than a source.
Did women behave this way when they relied on men to provide the majority, if not all resources?
***Nothing's really changed on that front though, because they still rely on us.......indirectly.
