Frest Meat: How Girls Get Treated

I watch Real World, and the Real World/Road Rule challenges every season. I find them addicting and I love the action and drama in the show. But something that never seems to leave this show is how the guys treat the girls.

The girls get treated like they are nothing more than something to sleep with. The guys find them useless and think they serve no purpose on the challenge. A certain challenger on the show is Kenny. He is the complete definition of a narcissistic "asshole". He makes certain statements that make women wonder, is this really what men think?

I love watching some of the girls stand up for themselves and actually hold a good name. But some of them allow the horrible treatment and do nothing about it. I wish some of the girls would understand that even though this is a game, they are women that can do just as well as the guys, if not better.

Where Do Kids Get These Ideas?

There was a recent article in The Capital that caught my eye about how a couple teenage boys gang raped a 7-year old girl. Other than thinking "how do kids get these ideas?" I was simply thinking just why they did it. But this is an issue that I believe needs to be deeply thought about and I dont think that it gets taken seriously. The 7-year olds step sister sold her to these young kids for money. Where on earth did this girl get that idea? I believe it comes from the media.

There are so many movies and television shows where we see situations like this, and it's easy access to the younger generation. I'm not saying that movies need to stop being made that show these kinds of things, but something needs to be done when it comes to kids, and someone has to be blamed for why this happened. Rape should to be taken just as seriously as anything else, and the media or parents need to make it harder for the children to get access to anything that portrays it.
