'' THE MEDIA'' DISGUISED SLAVE MASTERS.

     Hey there guys, I won't be posting any poems today but believe me,what i have is much more promising. So I  thought its about time I said something about how  nudity among women  is hitting the roof these days.  I switch on my TV and all i see is beautiful NAKED women. I dont care if its a commercial for  fruit juice or candy, or a new car brand , or a perfume , some kind of cosmetic like a lipstick or mascara, somewhere in it is a half naked  woman that even sometimes has nothing to do with whatever merchandise they are trying to advertise.  The worst part of it is in the music videos that are being released by the mainstream hip hop artists and if we are going to be real 80% of the time ,it is the women of color that are objectified .

Taking a close look at the picture on the left side of your screen, it depicts punishment of a slave by her owners on a ship back in the early 17th century. Taking a closer look we can observe the distinction between the dressing of the slaves behind and the masters. Slave women and men walked around naked, while the masters were fully clothed. In comparison to the present situation we are faced with, i find that the only difference is that the slave masters don't have whips anymore, but they still have every bit of control now , as they did back then. The influence the media has is remarkable, slowly but surely, sanity is going out of fashion. They parade nudity around like its nothing, and the young people are quickly picking it up, most especially the women, and what better way to sell it than through television. We young people buy everything they sell hook, line and sinker.. Little  by little , one after the other,pieces of fabrics are missing from outfits, opaque fabrics are replaced by transparent ones , and sooner than later items of clothing will become irrelevant all together. Now divert your attention to the second picture, cut out of a music video , now i am not familiar with this artists, or the song but i am very sure that these four naked women are completely irrelevant and unnecessary. The growing battle between cultural and commercial hip hop leaves us at a total loss. Our boys are trying to be gangstas , chase paper and get bitches, while our girls are trying to slay, and twerk, and inject their butts with whatever it is they are using these days.Notice how we are now having more baby mamas than wives? Ever wondered why that is? Lets come back home to our country, take a look at our own artists, they are dropping one single mother, per single these days... these are things that were clearly frowned upon, but now becoming socially accepted because the media has sensitized us. Besides, why is it always the women that are naked? when men are trying to display their sexiness , the most we see is chest. But girls... oh no! They dress the ladies in such a way that little or nothing is left to the imagination.. the more trends are evolving, the more naked ladies are becoming, while guys stay fully clothed. Statistics shows that out of the 600000-800000 cases of human trafficking in 2004, 80% were women, 50% of which were minors. 1 in 6 women  have been victims of completed or attempted rape. 10% of  violent crimes in 2003 involved battery and physical assault on women.9% of murder cases were women killed either by spouses or intimate partners. This shocking statistics in combination with the two pictures above speak volumes of  our present predicament . If ladies will start respecting their bodies a little bit more, and refuse to be victims of media mind control, then maybe we would be getting a little more respect than we are being given.
