When women use sex appeal instead of intelligence

So many women are taught that their sec appeal will get them ahead in life, but is this empowering? Or is it dis-empowering, since sex is often used to objectify us? Read the rest of the discussion…Continue

Share a little something about yourself with other moms.: I teach English Composition and Literature on the college level and have written a book on the dark side of motherhood. I am looking for representation for the book. In the meantime, I am blogging about my views on pop culture and the way women are portrayed in the media.

I have been blogging since...: February 2010

When you send off your girls to college, you expect them to get an education, make friends, develop naturally and become self-assured. You never expect them to dress up, get on a bus full of other girls, be driven…

Palin vs. Palin: Messages Girls Receive

Have you noticed the different treatment Bristol Palin receives from the media compared to her mother, Sarah Palin? Read my post on http://marinagraphy.com to see how media perceptions of these two women affect the messages our daughters receive. It is not a political post...it's a womanhood post.

That ad was a complete joke and I agree with you it is a joke how women are used...I worked in retail when I was in College as well and when I would dress up and do my hair nice they used to put me in the front to attract "clients" and they were pretty honest about that too!
The sad part is that many women use their looks to get ahead in life! That is something I would never want young girls to think is acceptable!
Great meeting you!
Here is my blog and twitter...lets tweet!
