FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL! NOT EVER OK!

[lunar_scythe]

I don't know if you've heard about this; I just did this morning. I am pretty incoherent right now, so I'll just post the links, and say PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE email the sponsors, even if you normal stay completely clear of this kind of thing.

even if you don't feel comfortable being politically active, normally, this is about people who think it's perfectly ok to encourage CHILD ABUSE, simply because a child is not conforming to 'normal' gender stereotypes.


PLEASE help spread word of this, these two...vermin need to be STOPPED. I understand shock radio, but when you are saying kids need to be beat, for ANY reason? That is crossing the line. At that point,it is NOT shock radio.

links:
first

second, with a c+p letter, sponsor email list, etc.

and PLEASE. even if you don't think this concerns you, please help. NO CHILD should ever be beaten. EVER. and that's what these guys are encouraging, saying they would *beat* their own kids if the caught them wearing high heals. Also, talk about double standards: girls wear pants & tennis shoes all the time, and no one thinks anything about it.

as a canadian, i didn't feel it was right of me to email the sponsers or this company. so i emailed every canadian media company i could get an email address for, called the local tv stations, emailed my mp and mpp to find out what sort of punishment they would push for in a canadian program and sai di expected their support to see that this example is bitched slapped as the worst thing a media personality could ever do, and that i hope to see them bringing up media law in the local area and at the national and provincial levels. then i emailed all my american relatives and told them to get the lead on out the emails to the sponsers and the parent company.

i think that is horrible and wrong. and just fucking sad. i talked to my dad about it on the phone and we were both in tears at the thought of a child being beaten for something as frivolous as playing dress up.
