Today's Topic is Sex.

No, no.
Don't feel bad that you IMMEDIATELY continued reading. (Ya nasty)

But seriously -- it seems like there are a million different ideas and people advertise a million different morals when it comes to teens and sex. Yeah. I said it. It's not even a shocker anymore.
The one constant about sex these days: IT'S EVERYWHERE.
And with these two examples coming up, I iz nat surprised that our generation is struggling to make sense of it, either by brushing it off or scrambling for chastity belts.


Exhibit 1: Abstinence is the New Neck-Scarf-Thing
So there's this magazine. It's called Just for Girls (& yep, there's a J4Guys, too).
It's available online, totally free, and it's main focus?

Keepin' ya pants on.

You'll learn How to Dress Modestly, the Top 10 Ways to Say "NO" (including the popular "No."), and if you're really into psychological word play, you can play the J4G Crossword Puzzle!

10-letter phrase for "Couples that 'lives together before marriage'"?
HMM.
"Burn in hell" fits right in there, look at that.
That's weird.


Exhibit 2: JC Penney is cool with teen sex. In/out of their clothes.
Please, please check out this highly intellectual NATIONAL TELEVISION commercial from the reasonably-priced folks over at JC Penney.

Dang! I didn't get the memo, but apparently, "Today's the day to get away with it."
SWEET.
See? Now everyone can calm the eff down about teen sex being a "controversy".
Because JC Penney says, as long as you're buying and taking off their 8-pack cotton undies, teen sex is totally fine. Fun! Adventurous! A skill you must practice, even!
& So is lying to your parents. That's pretty cool, too.


These are just too good.
THE QUESTION: Have we gone too far in encouraging, discouraging, or even addressing teen sex in the media?
Is it or is it not none of dey bidness?
What the hell is JC Penney doing giving me sex advice?!

Yo, Leanna & Rin!

Dude, I can't figure out for the life of me how to respond to comments on here,
and I'll be DAMNED if I can't talk to ya'll because of it.

SO! (Check out the original comments first)

-->Leanna hat sed:

I hate MySpace profiles with bad grammar and pPLz wh0o b3e tAlkiiNg lYik3e diiZs...

It took me about 3 minutes alone to type that above sentence. Amen to Generation (insert really mean stereotype). Psh, it's just the way of life. I wonder what our kids' generation will be called...

Alls I gotta say is that these chick celebrities better keep their panties on because they're setting a bad example for our young divas.

--> Yo, Leanna,
DUDE. DUDE. IT HURTS HOW MUCH I AGREE WITH YOU. I don't know where they find the time to type like that, but they NEEDZ to adopt another hobby. Like playing in traffic.
I know, right - you see our generation do crazy shit, and I'm sure our parents are like, Dear God, why. All WE can do is understand that we'll NEVER understand, haha. I'm thinking we could hopefully come up with something more original than Generation Z. Generation YouTube? Generation Intrawebz. Generation Less-Shameful!? (Woo, way to be original)
& I feel you on the celebrity thing - hi, Jamie Lynn Spears and the new campaign that having kids is awesome and fun fuzzy unicorns?!
NOT OKAY.

---------------------------------------------

-->Rin hat sed:

Millenial? Interesting. Who exactly is "The Man"?

Anyways. Yeah, I think we needa' check ourselves out before we mess ourselves up. I'm lucky to have learned how to not be selfish by just looking at myself and remembering all of the stupid things I've done.

--> Hey, Rin,
That's something we needs to do, all of us, right? Check ourselves. Hold back on the selfish doings, perhaps? Take one of those big steps back and go, "WTF, self." Unfortunately, part of being a kid is having the tendency to be terribly forgetful :/! Isn't it kinda painful how we watch it happening to ourselves, but we... can't... stooop... iiit?

Say it to mah face

Hey.
Did you know that, generally, if you were born between 1985 and 2002, you're a Millenial?
Yeah. The Man's giving us names now, ugly ones, without our permission.

It doesn't even end there - they're out there calling you Generation Me, Generation Y (Don't ask me y. !! .... -_-), all kinds of crazy stuff.
Not only are they calling you names - they're calling you out.

Oh yes they did, girl.

That is what they hat sed.

Let me break it down according to a few articles I picked up.
According to the generation before us [Generation X; The Man knows his alphabet]:
1). You're full of yourself,
2). You're greedy,
3). And you got yo' head in yo' butt.


Apparently, the problem is that us Millenials were all brought up to believe we're unique, delicate snowflakes, capable of any and every dream we set our cholesterol-caked hearts upon... And these affirmations are exactly what'll lead to our demise.

What's sadder?
I find it all kinda... true. Frighteningly accurate.
The number one person on all of our minds (once you stop lying in your MySpace AboutMe's & admit it) is ME. Not me-me, YOU-me. We love ourselves. The FB updates, the MySpace profiles with horrible grammar, the bloody fight towards our dream college... Our generation is obsessed with being the best, having the best, and telling as many people that care how goddamn awesome we are (which comes out to a number exponentially smaller than one may think).

It's bred a new pack of I'd-like-to-go-getters; of LC-wannabes who, tcha, knows The Hills is fake but still think they can flee home & single-handedly take over LA, of I-can-too's, of ambitious dreamers who just like to talk and talk and talk the talk.

They're calling us out, dude.

You, there. You're probably one of these selfish bitches.
THE QUESTION: Do we need to check ourselves before we wreck ourselves?

Oh, hai.

YEEEEESSSSSSSSS!
Finally, man.

My F15 blog's been completely abandoned and what with work and Tahiti Fete and all that...

I missed you guys.
"Let's hug it out, bitch."
- The Office

Yeah, word, I can swear here. Nah, but I'm not gonna be spewing profanities a whole lot - mostly, I just wanna be somewhere where I can keep talking to people outside of that F15 gig, ya dig. I wanna keep people laughing and thinking and agreeing/me telling you you're wrong,
1). I just wanna keep the conversation going.
About anything.
Everything!

ALSO - So, I pretty much blog about my blog research as a blog. I mean, job. (Blog's one of those freaky repeat-until-you're-just-making-noise-words, huh?) I blog about blogging, I'm on my Google Reader like white on rice... And I swurrdogad, I run into the WEIRDEST SHIT in the blogosphere, man. Crazy products, out-there ideas, things that have both pissed me off and made me piss my pants,
2). I WANNA SHARE THEM.

So, please. Subscribe below, if you so desire, check out the weird shit I find now and then and let's just talk. I wanna see comments up the BUTT.

Let's just freakin' talk.
