It's The Abstinence Fairy!

Abstinence
In the United States there has been considerable mockery of the choice of Bristol Palin, the child of former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who is also an unwed teenage mother, as the spokesperson for a national abstinence campaign run by the Candie’s Foundation.

The fact that Palin’s daughter chose not to practice what she is now preaching is seen by many as yet another example of conservative hypocrisy, but social advertisers have often used spokespeople who serve as negative examples. Perhaps one of the most famous examples is the use of Yul Brynner in an anti-smoking spot that was released after his death in 1985.


The Candie’s Foundation had previously created a number of “Pause Before You Play” public service announcements emphasizing the terrifying transformations that could take place as the result of sexual activity. In the ad above, a bed transforms into a crib, and in another commercial a car in which a couple is passionately embracing turns into a stroller with a tagline about not expecting this to be one’s “first set of wheels.”

Everything is good in its season

AccelerationFairly, me frighten "development" of generation of the XXI-st century. Where that wonderful is time the childhood? Such sensation, that after the infantile period comes at once the youthful. Already in 3-4 years children easy use the computer and mobile technics, and their speeches by time amaze more adult audience.

It would Seem, and should be, yes here only in my representation it any more that childhood.

Ever less the girl play dolls preferring computer games "Dress Barbie" etc., and boys hardly probable not from infancy master PlayStation with every possible races and quests.

Already in 10 years children listen to songs about unfortunate love and passionate sex, films with the bed scenes which obviously have been not intended for so early age look. And in 13 years girls/boys begin an "adult" life. In that does the rising generation now study?
Acceleration baby
Why the era of technical progress steals the childhood from the innocent not generated persons, forming in their character only embitternment, dissoluteness and permissiveness?
Acceleration boy
What for to take away from children the carefree childhood? They still will have time to mature, learn to use modern IT technologies, to reconsider films about that "whence children" undertake and to listen to songs about unfortunate love.

When you meet the man in whom it is not enamoured...

No love!
He will call, and you will not run through a step
To phone. He will suggest to meet, and you will not rush to a mirror, shaking out on a way case contents.

He will suggest to call in, and you will answer, that it is more convenient to meet already in city centre.

You look the man in the face freely and openly.

You without shyness dare to correct a make-up at the partner.

You lateral sight see, how he looks at you.

You know, that all these sights mean and unmistakably define, when become for the man something big, than simply nice Barbie.

You all this time sit and ask yourself only one question: "What line I here am?!"

You even know the answer. And still you understand, that this good, lovely, intelligent, brought up, pleasant in every respect the boy, enamoured in you, never becomes an antibiotic, never can scratch soul so that then it would be desirable to die, but to recollect and recollect...

He waits for the invitation to coffee... You wish the man good night.

You drink in a drawing room cognac and you hate the one who has transformed you into a monster, incapable to become for others "Someone big"...

In Your Face:

The Culture of Beauty and You

Face

"In our factory, we make lipstick; in our advertising, we sell hope." — Charles Revson, founder of "Revlon Cosmetics"

More money is spent on beauty products in the United States annually than on education: over $6 billion on makeup alone.

From bedtime fairytales and blockbuster movies to magazine advertisements and reality TV, we absorb the lesson early — being beautiful is the answer to our dreams. For pre-teens and teens, the pursuit of fitting in and measuring up feels like an essential survival strategy. Never before have so many messages offered so many unattainable ideals.

With In Your Face, Shari Graydon encourages readers to look critically at the culture of beauty of both past and present. Whether it's the different standards for guys versus girls, the assumptions we all have about models and celebrities, or the message that "the right makeup" can make you a better person, Graydon's look into the realities of our ideals will help kids face up to the culture of beauty and the beauty industry hype.

Accompanied by lively visuals, including sharp comic-style vignettes and photos from our beauty culture, this book will captivate readers.
