GIRLS…GONE

August 30, 2006 by djackson.

“Girls Gone Wild” is simply “Gone” as far as Corpus Christi is concerned.  For the second time this year, the video Sodom of sexual exploitation was due to roll into town, ply young women with alcohol and gain ownership of images of their bodies.  This footage would then be splattered like a drunkard’s vomit all over video and the internet for the gratification of what are loosely called “men.”  Last time, the brains behind this travesty (or rather, those with their brains in their behinds) said they cancelled for financial reasons.  This time, the local saloon keeper who had made his parking lot available for the tour bus said he refused to stamp the hands of these eternal adolescents because of phone calls and petitions which came from…local high school and college students!  The scuttlebutt on the Evangelical circuit is that it was the Home Schoolers who torched the touch-hole on this shot across the bow.  So what do we learn from this?

 We learn that exploitation and liberation are not the same thing.  Women are free to use their bodies to entice men, but then they aren’t free to use them for much else.

We learn that there is some decency left among the youth of America, or at least of Corpus Christi.

 We learn that you might as well go ahead and squeak.  Who knows?  You might get some grease, and at any rate you’ll let people know the friction is heating up.
