Disney is done making princess movies... why should i care?

Says the article on Yahoo

  But what was that they just said?
“By the time they’re 5 or 6, [girls are] not interested in being princesses. They’re interested in being hot, in being cool. Clearly, they see this is what society values.” (That’s right: A girl born in 2005 already is worrying about how “hot” she is. Have fun with that, moms and dads of the world.)

 i won't raise my daughter (who's 2) on disney movies anyway, but i seriously doubt that  5 year olds are worried about "society's values" they probably  just do what they learn from their parents.

So even if it's true, that 5 year olds just want to be "cool" and "hot", it's only based on how big a priority that is to mom and dad. Mom in particular nowadays, has this synthesized pressure to stay hot, be a "Milf", have a sexy facebook picture... it's real easy (for some) to lose sense of what's really important, raising a strong, intelligent, happy and independent person.

Perhaps it's too hard to find the right media. Mainstream media wants nothing more than for you too feel you aren't good enough, but you will be if you buy their products. Oh yeah, sure, they can make you better, faster, stronger, yeah friggin right! In reality they will tear you apart and sell you a new perfume.

Stop listening to marketing, for your own good, and your childs. Find alternative media, seek out alternative entertainment, go to plays and open mic's  instead of movies, STOP READING MAGAZINES! Smash your television. Go to the library, your LOCAL coffee shop.

i'm not saying you shouldn't shave your legs or you should stop wearing makeup (we'll discuss cruelty free makeups another day). i am simply saying that maybe you should kick the high heels sometimes, okay, most times, is it really that important that you're wearing the right cleavage baring top with the right skin tight jeans? Maybe it is, but i hope you understand how the small things you do matter to your child.

if you don't know how the corporations are brainwashing you, go on, tell me thay aren't we'll work to find out exactly how they are. No i'm not attacking you, i just think people should be aware of their impact, even if they choose not to change it.

well my daughter wants to hang out, so that's all for now.
see you next time, same untime, same unchannel.
