Why is our culture so obsessed with sex? - Brenna - 02-21-2013 05:58 AM

Suddenly it seems like that is what everything is about. Most girls want to look "hot" and are okay with being a sex object. Most guys only want girls for sex. Its a very open subject, and kind of considered an every day thing. Why is this? And do you think it is a good or bad thing?

its in movies, music, etc so if its in the media it must be ok plus it feels greeeeeeeeeeeaaaaat(in my tony the tiger voice)

scorpio is the typical male. how can we want men for money when half the time theyre broke living in their mothers basement. lol come on now be realistic. women have more to offer than men

This has been happening for a very long time. I don't know but women especially young adults should stop rushing to grow up. Enjoy your youth. I have lots of girl friends who dress very sexy even though we are 18, 19, 20 I still think its too much.

It's media driven, but it's also prevalent with social media such as Facebook (people posting hundreds of pictures of themselves, some in provocative poses/clothing) and sexting, and a general feeling that it is normal to lose your virginity at a young age, even if a person is not equipped to handle it psychologically.

The media, the Internet, porn and low self esteem.

Always has, always will.

Girls will always be considered as 'sex objects' deep down in the male psyche. It's the decent ones who don't openly express this.

I think you're wrong about most guys wanting girls ONLY for sex.
I think for a lot guys- sex is VERY important so that it may seem that way. But many guys are like me- they also want intimacy, shared fun/activities, cuddling, holding a girl in your arms, etc.

Guys do want girls who look provokingly "hot". But nobody is really forced to dress or act in a sexy way. In fact in most workplaces women are supposed to be discreet about what they wear, it is the females themselves that bend the rules.

I don't think women should dress "hot". Well maybe if they have the body for it, then allright. But some don't and you can see the undies they are wearing under leggings. That is sickening even for me, as a girl that likes girls

Simply because "sex sells" and people tend to buy it. As humans, we are infatuated (and in some cases addicted) with sex and because of this the porn industry will continue to be a multi-billion dollar industry as well as magazines that contain sexual images of celebs will continue to hit store shelves.

Unless people learn to control their sexual inhibitions or simply ignore all the sexual marketing the media projects, just expect things to stay the way they are.
