What do you think of seemingly pornographic magazine covers on display in grocery stores?
I work at a grocery store during the summer.
Today, this lady walked in and complained that the magazine covers were “horrendous.” She was referring to the magazines on display on the racks by the check-out aisles. Specifically, I think she was referring to a “Sports Illustrated” with an almost-nude model on the front cover, and a “Home & Style” magazine, featuring Kim Kardashian in a bikini.
She was complaining to our store manager that young kids are being exposed to this imagery when they come into the store, and she perceived that to be a big concern of hers.
The bigger question, if you want to take a shot at, is, will the positive, excessive portrayal of sex in American culture continue to desensitize the moral fabric of our country?
Thanks, any input is welcome.
Coarsening of sensitivity through too much graphic anything is the sign of a morally bankrupt society.
This can only happen where individual rights are ignored. That means a government especially right-wing, of would-be infallibility spouting district attorneys, of public interest totalitarians and of those who regulate the means by which citizens claim rights and corporate tsars are told where to stop pushing people around.
The distinction between liberty and collectivism is simple to explain: in liberty, you exercise volition–you choose to buy a magazine with a potentially offensive cover on it.
Under collectivism, you’re forced to look at it, get aroused our of context and either get mad at lost rights to privacy or buy a magazine you really don’t need as part of supply-side economic fascism.
Thanks for asking.
Star coming for a fine question.
