The media is responsible for so many flaws in our present day...and those parents who tried to teach their sons and daughters different ways of looking at things had their children ridiculed by their "peers" whose parents saw nothing wrong with the maltreatment women recieved and still recieve!! The language used in TV and Movies is an obvious example as the children use the same foul language!! And that is only a minor display of degradation of our young!!

Its hard for men not to have a small level of lust when all the media shows is scantly dressed women. One thing my Christian male friends do is change the channel when a commerical comes on with women portrayed in this way. OTher than that I'm not sure.

Not all women are displayed this way, and it depends on what you are looking at. You can choose what you look at and help avoid some of this issue as well.

What level of lust are we talking about here? As long as you don't go out and do anything criminal or cheat on your partner I see no harm.I see something sexy I apreciate it and if it really gets me cranked my hubby reaps the benefits.;-)

The same way a woman avoids this when a hunk of a man wears very tight pants or a nice tight shirt. It is called control! Men could do this if they could just stay focused on the business at hand and not the busines they wish was in their hands. LOL

I would not like to be forced to feet all the women in thsi world that just LOVE the attention of men around them. For so many it is a way of proving themselves for whatever reason. In ALL my relations I was confronted with women that would NOT go outside the house without wearing their earrings, just to name an issue.

Because humans are supposed to be CIVILISED. This means that men should have self control.

Scantily clad women or no, men will always have lust. Women too. It is human nature and I think if kept in check lust is completely harmless and a rather good feeling at times. I was hoping to come up with a good response here and thought I could. Now as I sit here staring at your question my mind has gone completely blank. Could it have something to do with my wallpaper of Johnny Depp looking at me with those sexy mysterious, smoldering eyes....I guess it goes both ways!

Hi! I can tell you how it makes me feel. As a woman, I feel like if I'm not a size 2 and 6 and 1/2 feet tall, I might as well go sit in the corner. These unrealistic portrayals of women have to stop. I mean, come on, we burp, we throw up, our noses run, our feet smell, we go through all the same things every person goes through. Why try to create this ideal of perfection that can never be attained?

I think women are considered as mere objects in real world also..the media just encourages such attitude. It is degrading to see women be considered as mere objects good for ogling at. But then the truth is sxx sells in media, and theres no way of stopping such publicity.

but one should be intelligent enough not to indulge in such type of things when he can sense obscenity. What media shows is there propaganda simply to get popularity among the very procative public and for that they can go to any extreme, public should be sensible enough not to indulge in such type of things

That is not true of all media, maybe it is the channels or show that you watch or magazines that you read. If you want to do somethng about it, then contact these people and state your concern, hit them where it hurts, in the wallet.
