25% would like to be a lap dancer.
About 50% consider Abi Titmuss a role model (most famous for sex vidoes and nude modelling), while only 9% chose JK Rowling (Harry Potter):

Yes I do.
What a society we have created for the youth.
What kind of society rewards getting them out/off with fame and fortune?
Everyday we are bombarded with images of plastic, inflated self -mutilating Barbies who can´t string a sentence together, yet we hang on their every word.
Disagree with Dave.
A few generations ago it wasn´t the norm to mutilate your body and it wasn´t easy to make millions out of being famous for nothing.
No Dave.
When I talk about mutilating your body I mean artificially inflating your mammary glands. |
Celebrity Sex Tapes? Hi i'm doing some course work on how celebrity sex tapes have made celebritys or even broken there career, but the only people I can think of are, Paris Hilton Abi Titmuss, who else is there. |

In Britain 63% of teen girls want to be a topless model, 25% a lapdancer. Are the figures similar in the US? The UK is much more liberal than the US so I wanted to compare social attitudes.
63% of girls 15-19 would like to be a 'glamour' (means topless in the UK) model.
25% would like to be a lapdancer.

Here's an article about the poll:

| i don't think the numbers would be that high but it is a shame so many girls want to degrade themselves . they will have to live with themselves when they turn 30 and try to explain to the man they love that they were a tramp and then at 40 to explain to their guyren why mommy is bent over the coffee table on the internet. |
One thing to bear in mind about these surveys that they do with teenagers? This in reference to news that Abi Titmuss is considered a role model amongst teen girls, is that often people like to take the P when it comes to these surveys.
I remember at school they came around with an official survey that asked us about our sexual and drug habits.
I was 14 and I put.
- Have sex daily.
- Have tried Cocaine, Marijuana and Heroin. No longer on the weed, but the other stuff makes me feel good about myself.
When asked if we would tell our peers about the dangers of drugs, I put 'I would actively encourage them. I feel really good after my first hit.'
Of course I made the whole lot up, but I was 14, what did I care about a government survey. I'd rather take the P.
So take these kind of surveys with the pinch of salt they deserve.
Every generation thinks the next is the worse. Do you really believe our parents thought we were the wonder generation in which we could do no wrong?
As for sexual promiscuity ........ hello??? 1960's anyone?? |
Born in the 60's to one hell of an eccentric mother and retired navy officer, I've turned out to be the craziest sensible person you could ever meet.
or am I?
