I know that one couldn't pay me to do a man or Roseanne, Sam I am. So, I can't be bothered by it. I don't care if every teacher told me for 10 years straight, that you must lust after Brad Pitt, it wouldn't have worked for me. I am an individual that way I suppose. Pepsi tries to recruit me all the time, and it doesn't work, because I think it tastes like sugar water. They spend millions of dollars in that effort, all for naught. I am just as threatened about them changing my mind, then a guy who color co-ordinates.

Would a child fall for it? A social loser in school? A man who just can't keep a woman? It's an escape from reality. A need that's never filled. A thirst for something that will never be quenched. A lost soul. A life of empty misery.
Some people turn to drugs. Some to alcohol. Some to homosexuality, some to suicide.
It's not something that should be endorsed, but condemned, or offered professional help.
If TV can endorse a deadly lifestyle such as homosexuality, why do they attack tobacco? Public drunkenness, or open drug sales?
