Did they ever consider the possibility that somebody might listen to that type of music because of something else that would make them have sex at an earlier age? It just seems to me like they are getting things very mixed up...

I'll also add that I have nothing to defend, I usually listen to Metallica, System of a Down or sometimes classical music/

"i do however want to enlighten you a little bit. the term rock and roll is a sexual reference and the lifestyle that most rockers aspire to is sex, drugs and rock and roll."

That is a totally different topic, I am just talking about he lyrics.
If we want to discuss society and celebrities effect on it, well then I have alot to say about that...

"your 100% wrong"

Your argument is very convincing...

"Well, what they said is not entirely stupid for you knoow that music does influence animal behavious(cows tend to yield more mils) and plants and crops(In Australia they say music is played in open farms for their bneficial effects on the standing crops. Dr. Jagdishchandra Bose, the Indian scientist showed for the first time that plants resond to melodies and even shrink at harsh music). If that is the case of animals and trees it is futile to contest that such songs of the Lotus Eaters(from Greek mythology) have effect on young boys and girls listening to it even unconsciously. Dr.Martino also confirmed that while factors such as parental permissivenesst could also affect teens' sexual behavior but still explicit lyrics had a strong influence."

Plants and cows don't understand English :-)

Dr.Martino also confirmed that while factors such as parental permissivenesst could also affect teens' sexual behavior but still explicit lyrics had a strong influence.

However what Dr.Yvonne K. Fulbright, a New York-based sex researcher and author, said factors including peer pressure, self-esteem and home environment are probably more influential. The brain's impulse-control center does undergoes "major construction" during the teen years at the same time that an interest in sex starts to blossom.The influence of TV and other visual media also cannot be ignored.

"It's a little dangerous to just pinpoint one thing. You have to look at everything that's going on in a young person's life," she said. "When somebody has a healthy sense of themselves, they don't take these lyrics too seriously."

Yes, men and women are this fashion and it does not quit after core institution. It maintains for existence, even amongst men and women the identical a long time as your moms and dads and grandparents. It simply concerns extra to you presently than it's going to whilst you are an grownup on the grounds that you are at institution all day and you are a child attempting to determine who you're and wherein your location is on the planet. That's additionally the identical purpose the opposite ladies are the way in which they're. The change is they're vulnerable.

Answer 4

i dont have to read the article because i saw this on the news yesterday. i agree with your attitude that they, whoever they are may be grasping at straws when they attempt to find another excuse for societies behavior. i do however want to enlighten you a little bit. the term rock and roll is a sexual reference and the lifestyle that most rockers aspire to is sex, drugs and rock and roll.

Answer 5

No, I don't think it is stupid. As kids become more comfortable with the concept of sex, they are more likely to have sex.

When kids hear lyrics that say that men are sex driven-studs and women are sex objects, they feel that this is true and therefore having sex is more acceptable.

Answer 6

Yes, it's stupid. Just another opportunity for parents to blame everything wrong with their kids on someone or something other than themselves and their own failures in parenting.
