and tv? we can excuse what we point our finger at men about expecting them to learn, regardless. they are continually being taught to objectify, yet we spend so much time telling them they ought to educate themselves and get beyond that.

i expect no less from our girls.

tv? the parent should be having conversation. i see this crap on tv and you can damn well bet it has brought up conversation between me and my niece, with sons sitting there. so they HEAR me tell a girl, bullshit on the conditioning of playing guys. it is crap, dont do it. it is wrong. my boys are going to hear me address and discuss these issues with girls just as i address the issues with the boys.

i say respectfully, but totally disagreeing with you.
