The Hatchet #5

The beginning of Brian's troubles started with him catching his mom cheating on another man. Our society today tends to sell "sex" as something that tends to just go around. TV shows and movies always have something sexual in the plot. With the internet people also have sex at their fingertips. Along with pornagraphy, newspapers and magazine have amazing looking people on their covers. It seems as though every magazine has a cover story about how to get sexier. My point is that society today tends to throw sex around like it doens't matter. People get the perception that everywhere you go, there is someone waiting for you to get laid (sorry if this isn't appropriate). Beer and car commercials always have good looking people. TV shows always have their "model." A movie isn't good unless there's a good looking model in it. Everything today seems to revolve around sex. What happened to the family values? In Brian's case, our lax society cost him his family, and we quickly saw the negative impact it had on him. Like I said multiple blog posts ago, we aren't going to get rid of divorce and bad decision making. But, I think society as a whole should do a better job of controlling what the general public can see.
