* Giddy up. Hrm... kids aren't as dum as you might think (believe me, they are pretty smart actually, way smarter than most adults at least), and I'm pretty sure that most of them can figure out that this song isn't about horses...
* Digital get down. This song is basically the crown of all 'NSync stands for. Cyber sex is something we really want to encourage amoungst our young.
* Baby one more time. The song in itself doesn't piss me off, it's the "hit me" that makes me mad. That and the singer (Britney, singer? Eeeehh... that was a little too much exaggerating). There is nothing positive in asking your boyfriend (or ex boyfriend) to hit you one more time. Kids might not be stupid, but the might not think about a word for a longer time, therefor the word "hit" might just mean hit, and in their younger years kids are very easy to affect. (Of course some people are easy to affect all their lives...)
* I was born to make you happy. If I had a daughter I'd forbid her to listen to this. I wouldn't want any girl in the world in the world, and even less my own child, to think that she's born to please some guy. I rather let her listen to... to... the Offspring ("Mini-Me, you complete me" comes to mind...) even though I might not think that really young kids should listen to them. (I got nothing against Offspring, far from actually, but I wouldn't want my kid running around cursing like I do, it's bad enough that the child probably doesn't know what it's saying. I still remember at a party that my class held for kids (to make money for a class- trip) a year ago, picture 40 boys and girls in the ages 6 to 9 YELLING "Burn mother fucker burn" (we were playing Bloodhound gang...), obviously not knowing what they were saying.
* Britney's dressing... Those belts she wears as skirts and tops. Yet again, I'd forbid my daughter to walk around like that, I rather burn the clothes than let her wear them. (Damn, I'd be the best mom ever...) I get really sad when I see little girls walk around dressed like whores (and I know it's because of the Spice Girls and Boobjob Spears). I'd like to be a kid again, and I'm happy that I was a child as long as I could, I'm still not exactly acting like a teenager. I just wish that they'd realize that they can only be a child once in your life, and that you should be a child when you can. I wonder what Britney says when she's shopping... "This is like you know, my size, now you know find one that's like two sizes smaller."
* Implants. I'm just going to state this once (okay, maybe more than once), I'm never going to get them, and I'm not going to let my daughter to get any either. My boobs aren't exactly big, but I don't care, they are at least real and they are going to stay real too. I'm still wondering why Britney couldn't come up with a better lie than "they grew". Yeah, you hurt your knee, get an operation for it but when you wake up your boobs are suddenly a couple of sizes bigger. The doctors' ways are mysterious. |
