The moderate-conservative blogger in Baltimore writes about Sunday's halftime show: "During the half-time, I went to the store and when I got back, Beyonce's
performance was going on. I sat down in my seat and *BAM*! There it
was! Beyonce in her outfit, gyrating, and the camera was 'all up in her crotch 'getting a 'money shot.' Whoa. Outfit aside, she put on one heck of a performance. There are
no questions that woman can give an entertaining performance."
DarkStar, who has a young son, continues: "I'm concerned about perverts being more attracted to children because of
the clothes the children wear. And by perverts, I don't just
mean sexual predators of young children I also mean adults who target
under aged teenagers for sexual conquest. I'm concerned about
girls/young women being sexualized to the point that they only see their
self worth as a sex toy for boys/young men. I'm concerned about
boys/young men being sexualized to the point that they only see their
self worth as consisting of how many girls/women they can have sex with.
This is what troubles me so much about the current 'fad' of rappers
rapping about strippers and 'being in love with a stripper' and
workouts featuring the stripper pole. I also think, from talking with
men who had pornography addictions as well as reading about it, that the
hyper-sexualization of women, especially with pornography,
negatively affects the intimate and sexual — they aren't the same —
interaction of men and women. Beyonce brought it! She did her thing. But, I'm conflicted."
Booker Rising response: I see Bey done ticked off PETA again too, about her python-and-iguana-leather-skinned Super Bowl outfit (after wearing a mink coat to the presidential inauguration).
