In the supposedly-banned Bud ad, we are led to infer that a man is
having Bud Lite bottles rammed up his butt. Maybe they think that
parents don't want to explain that to their seven-year-olds.
If you can't explain the relation of alcohol and the rectum to a young
child then what kind of parent are you?!
Normal, I hope. I'm not sure wht the relation is and I'm not sure that I
want to know!
Another thing we don't want to explain is "Girls Gone Wild." Maybe the
best explanation is that they are being paid to pretend it's OK to act
like that, but they regret it later and are embarrassed by what they've
done. That's probably true most of the time.
The other day my son (who will be 14 next month) saw a GGW ad while we
were watching TV and he said "think I can get that?" I said "no." Then
we laughed. But these days kids can get so much from the internet that
I'm really not protecting him much by not buying him a GGW video. I don't
really know what the best way is to deal with all the stuff kids are
exposed to these days.
