I want to share two videos that offer some info on two of the harshest topics facing our young women today: sexualization in the media and poverty. These are two issues that have an enormous impact on women as they mature. Each in thier own way, these things damage the essense of womenhood and corrode the strength of our gender. We need to fight these two formidable foes and educate our women to recognize the pitfalls that await them. It is through education of these societal deficits that we will remove ourselves from under their oppressive, tyrannical thumb. And lets not forget how the male gender resopnds to these catalysts: poverty allows those opportunistic men to prey on the weak, and sexualization in the media gives men the license to be mysoginists. These videos are fantastic educational tools as well as eye openers.
