Forget Reading — My Kid Is A Playground Pimp
November 16, 2009 No Comments
Boys just gotsta get some… even if they are one.
Parents have fretted for years about girls being sexualized at younger and younger ages, but boys are being exposed to the same types of marketing.
They learn that being a man is all about wanting pussy, even before they hit the playground.
A new book Packaging Boyhood: Saving Our Sons From Superheroes, Slackers, and Other Media Stereotypes has been published, looking into the raunch culture that our boys are exposed to.
Onesies: “Chicks Dig Me” and “Playground Pimp”
T-shirts: “My Mom Is a MILF,” “All Daddy Wanted Was a Blowjob,” and “Hung Like a Five-Year Old.”
Abercrombie & Fitch offers tees with slogans like “Save a Cherry, Pop a Collar” and “One Man’s Junk is Another Woman’s Treasure.” Other favorite shirts cited in a survey answered by more than 600 boys across the country included such charm-free sentiments as “You Can Have My Sister” and “Let’s Flip a Coin. Heads I Get Tail. Tails I Get Head.”
Boys get it just as bad as the girls with the “pornification” of culture. They are told that real men want sex all the time and objectify women (or in this case, their sisters).
“How are boys expected to deal with all the messages about being out of control, having body parts that seem disconnected or out of their control, having desire that they are told is boundless, and having smells that offend?” the authors ask.
“Boys are told to take control by becoming tiny ladies’ men, who, even while still in diapers, have sex on the brain.”
Looks like there is an opening in the market for lunchables with condoms.
