Everyone has seen the magazine racks at your grocery store, gas stations, and shopping centers. We've seen the covers, which feature low cut tops and immodest celebrities. We know the covers are terrible enough. But what about the content inside? Do they have any good advice? Ha...I'd have to say no.
First of all, the fashion tips are going to be much like whatever is on the cover. Low cut, too tight, or extremely short. That's what people think is fashion nowadays. Then you've got the romance tips. Oh where to begin...you've got those previews on the front about 60 sex tips and blah blah blah. Now, I believe in purity until marriage. It's what God wants, and it just makes sense. But the media portrays it as guys should hook up with as many hot girls as possible before you get stuck settling down. How false is that? Girls don't want a player. They want respect. At least, any self-respecting girl does. You can't get respect unless you first respect yourself.
Anyway, the magazines promote sex before marriage and immodesty. So who's reading these articles? Well, along with adult women, young teenage girls are reading them. Pre-teens are reading them. 10, 11, 12...14, 15, 16. Are you monitoring what you're kids are reading? What they're being influenced by?
Something to think about.
