It's time for a change guys! As much i love art and creating it I find it hard to write about..
So I have changed the title of this blog from "your ART matters" to "your HEART matters". I am hoping to write about anything and everything my heart and mind is thinking.
Last night I was watching MTV and the show "Man and Wife" came on. My first thought was wow! When did sex become such a non controversial topic? It seems like sex these days can be so freely talked about. Don't get me wrong.. I don't think its a bad thing that the subject can be so openly discussed.. but on television? Where children who aren't ready to be exposed to that world can see and hear all about it?
I know our society has changed. Children are growing up a lot faster than I did. Teenagers are more mature now because of the media and what it fails to censor. I do feel like the media has shaped a whole new look on raising children and what is expected of oneself. I do not feel like sex appeal and physically attraction should be top priority like most magazines and television shows advertise. I feel that kids are being forced to think that they have to be ungodly attractive to succeed and then have to deal with the personal issue of sex on almost every channel. How do you guys feel about it? Personally, what has the media made you think or feel about yourself? How do you let the media affect your self image?
