That being said, he's one of the few post '90 directors who can get away with not sugar coating how much contempt Hollywood has for women. Any industry dominated by Jews is going to be misogynistic. Semitic males have serious woman issues.<br /><br />Now that we're in a PC/careerist era where a lot of people make hay by leveling accusations of sexism, Hollywood has put more of a PC "strong woman" slant on things since the 90's. Don't be fooled, the Jews, gays, and strivers of the industry mostly see women (especially young ones) as commodities to be chewed up and spit out.<br /><br />Isn't it amazing how conduct that disgusts the silent majority (e.g. gentile whites of West Euro descent) somehow becomes the norm in Jew controlled industries (Like the entertainment biz and Wall Street)?<br /><br />Steve Sailer's done some good stuff regarding how so many Ashkenazi movements (Psychoanalysis and feminism among other things) are an incoherent and vindictive expression of how deeply insecure and bitter Ashkenazi Jews are. Gentile Euros find feminism to be unnecessary and bizarre, not realizing that it's a product of unstable Jewish women who are treated like doormats by ugly, boorish, and vain Jewish men.<br /><br />A culture that prizes devotion to studying numbers and verbal jujitsu (as opposed to refined personal dignity and heroism) is going to produce people who are deeply and perpetually unsettled. And who lack the restraint and taste to deal with hard feelings in a responsible way. Why do you suppose Jews tend to cluster in rootless areas (where residents are less likely to mind the store) until the natives finally get tired of their subversion and throw them out?Ferylnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-48855680068918610262015-07-04T20:00:20.133-04:002015-07-04T20:00:20.133-04:00I don't know who the heck Agnostic is, but I l...I don't know who the heck Agnostic is, but I like his blog.

The exposure of massive quantities of hard core has made swimsuit models appear dull, while swimsuit models were seen more often in the eighties few college kids were exposed to much porn , so the swimsuit models still had more appeal. <br /><br />another factor has been the feminization of the college campus. Students are too afraid to appear sexists, which actually started in the late 80s. <br /><br />what is most shocking to me is that college kids would put up posters of the Beatles, a band who had their heyday 50 years ago. Cannot imagine someone in the 80s having posters of Chuck berry, or Buddy Holly in the 90s, or having posters of the Kingston Trio in the 80s. jovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17255734827055994617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-12912165467462246352014-02-12T14:05:49.943-05:002014-02-12T14:05:49.943-05:00What I mean is that you guys were over-exposed to ...What I mean is that you guys were over-exposed to the things you put on the wall. Not just real-life girls in swimsuits, but images of them.

The main difference between the 80s, most boys had very little exposure to porn. The typical 18 year old today has probably watched 1,000 hours of porn before starting college. Thus the swimsuit models are not very stimulating. Putting poster of a hot model on your room today would be like posting Miss America from 1930 (when women still covered their legs, on your wall in the eighties. <br /><br />typical porn magazines until the late eighties never had any depiction of actual sex, even Hustler. You would never see even a guy getting a BJ. <br />I was a typical guy in 1987 and had never seen any photographs of penetration. Seeing a copy of Hustler was the extant of most males exposure to porn in 1986. by the 90s, these magazines got raunchier and would show guys getting head.<br /><br />in the 70s the vintage photo of Farrah Fawcett was actual jerk-off material, as was the Sears Catalog Undergarment section and National Geographic after your parents confiscated your playboy magazines. Porn in the 80s was less , less accessible and less accepted. Even if you did get a VHS copy of a porn film (they were about $80 in 1987, which translates to $150 today) the sex scenes were preceded by dialogue, story lines etc.. with just a few sex scenes which look more like todays amateur porn.<br /><br />I can't imagine college kids since 1999 getting excited over seeing lingerie ads in their lifetime. Exposure to the hard core desensitizes one to the bikini model photos. I don't think the kids born after 1990 would even use Playboy as jerk-off material, let alone Sear Lingerie models.<br /><br />jovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17255734827055994617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-10417445981544929102014-02-11T20:09:33.418-05:002014-02-11T20:09:33.418-05:00I don't think over-exposure is it.

Perhaps even the same girl in a swimsuit, like that Farrah Fawcett poster or whoever was in the SI swimsuit issue that year.<br /><br />Ditto for singers or actresses, like Alicia Silverstone (not even shown in a bikini).<br /><br />And seeing porn is one thing, but putting up a babe on the wall or door is another. It's a public declaration, marking territory, setting the tone, or something.agnostichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967177967469961883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-35431659874860502282014-02-11T19:12:39.721-05:002014-02-11T19:12:39.721-05:00Spicoli's room reminds me of college.

Our house was toned down from most frat houses, since we did have some girls living in the house, but they knew what they were getting into.<br /><br />I imagine porn magazines are quaint now, with all the porn on the internet. <br />When I first got to college, there was an actual porn theatre a few blocks from campus. I never went to it, but we had one brother in the house who went almost every week, and he was constantly mocked for his porn viewing habit. <br /><br />Kids growing up in the 90's probably don't realize the porn situation in the 80s. For most of us in the 80's. When I started college in 1987 I had never seen a porno film, <br />but had seen copies of Penthouse and Hustler since my friends dad subscribed to them. We were 10 years old, and would sell them in school to the older kids for $5 each.<br /><br />I imagine the typical freshman in college today has seen more porn than 99% of graduating seniors in 1989. This may be why sexy posters of girls are less popular today. in the eighties we would actually admire these posters, which today probably seem quaint to kids who have seen hours of hard core porn before starting college.jovahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17255734827055994617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-79979825613558192502014-02-11T12:16:32.912-05:002014-02-11T12:16:32.912-05:00Agnostic, the show featured how much fun used to b...Agnostic, the show featured how much fun used to be had in the cars. Some of it was pure hooliganism (smash and trash of stores) that may or may not have been played up by the show, but some of it was reminiscent of stuff my friends and I did in the same time frame, like doing a lap of a car. (Driving the car at some speed, put it in neutral, climb out the driver's side window, over the roof, into the passenger side window and then back into the driver's seat before the car came to a stop.) We didn't do that particular brand of idiocy, but we had our own. Other than drive-bys in bad neighborhoods, I don't know that many people do that kind of thing any more. Yeah, it was stupid and dangerous, but it was also fun and carefree.<br /><br />The episode also featured a nice soundtrack from the 1980s, and much mocking of current teenagers and social customs. (They mention that one used to be able to tell a female work colleague that she looked good, which is strictly verboten these days in GB as well as the USA.)<br /><br />BTW, in my part of the country the preferred cars were muscle cars, and failing that any beater would do, but big old boats from the 1970s were still pretty common. They were good for cramming all your friends into them, though they were a bitch to push after the inevitable breakdown/failure-to-start - always on the other side of town, of course.

The episode tonight featured the hosts 'proving' that hatchbacks of the 1980s were better than the modern equivalents. The reason I think you might find it interesting is that they demonstrate that more carefree fun was had in the 1980s. Really, fits right in with your themes perfectly.

Not as adolescents anyway. It seems like the early Millennials must have suffered the most whiplash growing up -- first the helicopter parent trend that began in the late '80s for babies (but not older children), continuing into the '90s and early 2000s. Then everyone's coming out of their hiding places, the country is patriotic rather than sarcastic... we'd better change our intuition about what the world's going to be like! Then by 2009 or so, Uh-oh, everybody's going back to their hiding places, it's back to super-snarky sarcasm... damnit, let's switch our expectations back to what they were in the '90s.<br /><br />My cohort only had one episode of whiplash, not two. Right around '92-'93, the slow and steady reversal of what we'd expected from our childhood years in the '80s.<br /><br />In fairness, I'd put those born in 1990 with late '80s births. Those were a lot of the students I was tutoring back then. I notice a big jump with those born in '92-'93, but I don't know enough who were born in '91 to say where they go.<br /><br />It's kind of like the zeitgeist overall -- '90 and even '91 weren't so different from the late '80s, whereas '93 and after were a whole 'nother culture. I think infants are imprinting on the surrounding culture and social mood more than we realize. Perhaps even in the womb, the mother could be relaying signals about what the world's like through her changing stress / hormone levels.agnostichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967177967469961883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-11843115786356333832014-02-10T19:35:38.377-05:002014-02-10T19:35:38.377-05:00Actually my cousins who are millennials had lots o...Actually my cousins who are millennials had lots of posters of babes on their wall. However, they were from a small town and were very social. Meanwhile, I have noticed people born especially after 1989, are obsessed with pop-culture posters. <br /><br />Good example is videos of internet reviewers. <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CA_YKOJy4I<br /><br />Notice that all the posters are of recent movies. Also the guy is wearing a t-shirt of a tv show. Also he talking about candy, and not the actual social experience he had. Lastly, his weird self deprecating smugness. All pretty millennial signs to me. These millennial symptoms get worst for people born after 89. People born in the nineties tend to be hyper-millennials.
