But let us not forget that these celebrities are often persuaded into doing things that they aren’t really interested in doing for the sole purpose of boosting their popularity in society. Lets face it; drama sells for these individuals. If Madonna got a new tattoo, it would be headlining news on all the gossip TV shows and magazines. This is not an acceptable way to get people to like you. Celebrity or felon, tattoos all carry the same message to me.
Abstract: This paper covers an argument that has existed between the media industries and Americans, (parents in particular), for multiple years. Parents argue that the media has a negative influence on young generations, and that they should consider their audiences before promoting their work, advertisements, or products. The media responds to the parents by saying that the only way the media could have a negative influence on youth is because of indecent exposure, which should be supervised by parents or guardians. Researchers have conducted studies to show how music and vivid images of supermodels can affect the self- esteem levels and personal identification. At one point, even the government is against the media industries, the music industry to be exact.

This site provides evidence that less people are dating, and now hanging out in groups with a casual atmosphere. For example, the article on the site blames the decline in dating to feminism and the fact that young adults do not like commitment. Kimmel argues that Guyland exists because of the need for males to escape the complexities of today’s world. Feminism, according to the article, can “make things confusing for men” and “all these uncertainties cause men to avoid dating altogether and opt for hanging out with women instead” (AOF). As one can see, there are similarities between Kimmel’s arguments of an increasing amount of males escaping the hassles of daily life through a Guyland mentality, and the sites statements that less people are dating and now “hanging
When we become adult our behavioral differences are greater than ever, thus men and women are less than prepared to choose their mate. Getting and staying married is not only influenced by society and expectations but also a matter of good communication with a twist of biology. Because of society forcing men into a stereotypical macho male role and women into a coy female role, the two sexes make different choices and therefore struggle to communicate with each other. To see how men and women have trouble communicating just observe a kindergarten class. One can quickly come to the conclusion that boys and girls are no longer playing together as they age; in fact they are starting their life completely separate ways.
Anyone black or white who makes money calling our women bitches or our people niggers will have to face our indignation” (Suggs p3). It’s an indignity that people are making money for putting such negative media out by which today’s youth is being influenced. One could argue that other genres of music also have songs that could be considered degrading towards women and have hints of sexism. However, these genres of music aren’t so hateful and foul that parents have to worry about their teens listening to them and radio stations ban them from their play lists. In this day and age music in general is becoming more and more promiscuous.
When a player gets addicted to a game, that player would lose control of what’s important. This usually happens and gets noticed when the game addicted gives up significant things in life for playing the game. There was even a story of a teenager boy that killed his parents because of the parents not letting him play a game known as “Halo-3, which a very popular a shooting game.” This is why bringing violence or materials that can potentially cause future problems is not a good idea. Responsible parents should always strictly supervise their child for the things they encounter. The idea of giving a young child a toy gun as a present can be a start of many horrible events in the future.
Man vs. Woman In the article “The Puzzle of Boys”, wrote by Thomas Barlett, he focuses on the things that makes boys who they are and how they are compared to girls. When Thomas first brought about the idea to do research on boys he was shunned because at that time all of the hype and interest was on girls. The boyhood studies that were conducted in the article had said that “compared to girls boys fall behind academically because school is not conductive to the way boys learn. Guys and girls brain s are fundamentally dissimilar in many way because of how they are brought up and what is instilled in them. Throughout this passage every source Barlett got his info from it says boys tend to communicate through action whereas girls do through verbal communication.
Ashley Guzman September 22, 2011 Eng 099 The article “Smoking is bad for everyone” by Sally Chen mainly speaks about the consequences of smoking. Sally mentions how companies tend to profit from peoples death and how the “No one under 18” sign is taken as a joke. As mentioned in the article “Politicians use the tax money on their favorite programs, which are designed to attract more voters.” Also said in the article is that no matter how high the price may be smokers wouldn’t quit. Although Sally Chen has her points about smoking, I agree with the fact lax enforcement of underage smoking needs to be addressed. Reason in being is because it’s not healthy; especially if you start at a young age it’ll affect more as you get older.
With the electronic media, everyone is a reporter these days, and some "news" stories have no place in making us a better society. The world could use less of teenage kids posting and so-called reporting the fight between two underage girls just to see how many vies they can garner, but it is the in your face mainstream media that has set the precedence in the ways that they report and for the reasons they state. What we see is representing the moral fiber of today's humanity, and when we can get likes for the most outlandish things and possibly get paid for those things, the media must do a better job of representing us as humans and the morality of us
