Oh boo hoo! I know! This is how I remember it! How was 9th grade for you? (Age 14-15)!? Leave a comment or make a video reply! 6:10 – new catch phrase!? LOL Thanks for listening! xo Michael “Buck”
Available on DVD – April 2010 www.mediaed.org In this new, highly anticipated update of her pioneering Killing Us Softly series, the first in more than a decade, Jean Kilbourne takes a fresh look at how advertising traffics in distorted and destructive ideals of femininity. The film marshals a range of new print and television advertisements to lay bare a stunning pattern of damaging gender stereotypes — images and messages that too often reinforce unrealistic, and unhealthy, perceptions of beauty, perfection, and sexuality. By bringing Kilbourne’s groundbreaking analysis up to date, Killing Us Softly 4 stands to challenge a new generation of students to take advertising seriously, and to think critically about popular culture and its relationship to sexism, eating disorders, and gender violence. Jean Kilbourne, Ed.D. is internationally recognized for her groundbreaking work on the image of women in advertising and for her critical studies of alcohol and tobacco advertising. In the late 1960s she began her exploration of the connection between advertising and several public health issues, including violence against women, eating disorders, and addiction, and launched a movement to promote media literacy as a way to prevent these problems. A radical and original idea at the time, this approach is now mainstream and an integral part of most prevention programs. Her films, lectures and television appearances have been seen by millions of people throughout the world …

During freshman year my mom said that a friend of her friend works at my school and that she told this person to spy on me and make sure i was ok. (I still don’t know who the spy was) .__.
I’m just going into 9th grade this year!
my freshman year of high school was bullshit lol i got made fun of so much its not even funny, than one day i just cracked an knocked this kid out an the rest of my high school “career” was tolerable haha
9th grade was fun
My freshman year sucked. I hope my sophomore year goes okay. I actually failed the second half of Geophysical Science. We had a sub for pretty much the entire trimester and he didn’t teach us shit. So I failed.
@Marklyu2 well god luck in college then……..
@Clo4Choccy There is Pre-school and Kindergarten before the actual number grades.
That’s so weird, in England Year 10 is 14-15, do you have an extra random year in America?
just finished 9th grade and it was fucking great. Highschool rocks for me
I’m going to 9th grade!:)

I LOVE YOU BUCK!!
@sdoge99 Congrats thats a very rare thing bud.
Aw I just want to hug you. :3
I’m in 9th grade this year and it has been the worst/best year ever i went to public school first seamster i skipped like three days a week was suicidal dealing with crazy things going on at home and got bullied (even my teachers made fun of me) so i changed schools i love my new school i’m back on track everyone’s super nice there i actually made friends and i’m less depressed
Last year fucking sucked..
im never unhappy at the moment and im in 9th grade…i just cant relate to the people in my new school…lol they’re all whores
I almost committed suicide in 9th grade. All of my friends ditched me, I started doing bad in school, and my dog died. The only thing that saved me was this kid. He was gay and my family is totally homophob, but he was the only one that cared and from then on we became best friends and I cant believe my best friend is gay. My life improved and it was like night and day.
@micaelaboschetti its really easy to me and got really fun teachers everybody now loves us,everyone tells me 7th is the easiest among all classes cuz lol i havent been on 8th and above
im in 9th grade physical science..i fail all my tests..heh
@Pirate0King really because im in seventh and its just sooo boaring!!! like i feel like slitting my wrists in the middle of class(not really but thats how boaring it is!!) i absolutly hate this year but i cant wait for 8th its gonna be awsome!!!
I went straight from 8th grade to 10th grade so no 9th for me
@miiwiiplay no it isn’t just because I play in orchestra and I’m smart doesn’t mean that i don’t have feelings. Nerds have feelings too. And no once again it’s not funny because in some states now this is illegal and anyone who is caught will have this on their criminal file. I would seriously consider changing your thoughts because when people get killed. Next time, think of the other person.
Is the lecturer in front of a green screen? There’s a weird glow going on, anyway good points!
of all the arguments that sound intelligent but are REALLY stupid, my favorite is “porn/sexy photos/advertising/fashion mags cause men to OBJECTIFY women!!” Right. Sure. So one day I have a mother, a sister, a girlfriend, female co-workers, etc. But one look at the Victoria Secret catalog and the next day BANG – now I’m a rapist who only sees women as objects for me to satisfy my uncontrollable violence and lust. We men are all just ass-grabbing, beer-soaked, crotch-scratching animals
it is not modern, progressive, educated men’s fault if women are stupid and self-destructive. Women have been torturing & hurting themselves for millennia to look prettier than other women. I have heard many women say numerous times that “we don’t do it for you” (meaning for men in general “we do it for each other.” In Victorian times, MALE doctors pleaded with women to stop tightening their corsets to the point of causing internal organ damage, but the women continued to do so.
Beauty has to come from the inside first. If you are not happy in your heart or it feels empty. You will never be happy with how you look on the outside you will always be trying to change something.
Only YOU can make yourself feel or think that you have to look a certain way. Period.
Hahahaa video made for frigid butthurt women.
@minutepastmidnight Oh, Dear. You have no idea what a sexy bitch I am without all the artificial bullshit.
@PirkkoUnkarilainen Little Miss, your New Year’s resolution should be “I must not talk like a silly little girl!” C’mon, shave those legs and pull on your sheer hose, smear some lipstick across your lips, pout and say; “I’m a sexy bitch,” Because you’re worth it
Thank you. Posture is also very important and much of what you say about women here now aplies to men in the media too
@watchWorld100 That is a really unhealthy and scary attitude. Men are not weak, pathetic beings with no control over their sex drive and women are not destined to be sexy just to appease men. Grow the fuck up and stop objectifying women as if their only goal in this world is to be pretty for men.
@hwame
You have an appalling face.
and besides, the reason why women bodies always appear on advertisements is that men are very sexual, could not resist a woman’s sexy body. it is not de humanization to me. As a matter of fact it is hard to be a man, always turned on by a woman’s sexy body.
@pingidjit Thank you for saying this, I wasn’t able to articulate it like you. Due to the objectification, their true value as a human is not recognized. It would make it easier for people to abuse someone whom they look upon as a pretty shell, instead of a shell with a life inside. I hope this makes sense.
@stillawake76 Do you think the point of the video was to blame you personally for a cultural-political state of things? The fact is that some beauty standards are enforced with unblinking conformity in representations of women as opposed to representations of men, to the point where those standards come to be valued more than the actual persons to which they apply. That speaks to a power imbalance that affect all aspect of our society. So yes, the ruling viewpoint is male.
@stillawake76 like omg! beer! duh!
@PirkkoUnkarilainen no way?
I personally know some indigenous people (not Native Americans) and they also grow hair, so please, keep your racist stereotypes for yourself.
@DanielCosta1969 “Many Europeans think that male Native Americans never shave but still do not have beards. The common explanation for this “miracle” is that they tear out their beards until they stop growing at all. To a large extent, these stereotypes are based on famous stories by Karl May (“Winnetou”), who wrote innumerable novels about Native Americans in the 19th century. Interestingly, May had never seen Native Americans with his own eyes.”
—- ‘Idaho Natives’
@DanielCosta1969 “The assertion that Native Americans cannot grow facial hair is a common misconception and stereotype.”
That’s on Wikipedia, so you don’t have to be a genius to find articles on the subject…
@PirkkoUnkarilainen Indigenous peoples do not have facial or body hair. Are they sick or non-human?
@oitotheworld23 Anorexia and obesity are both problems, but we should fix them in a positive, encouraging way, not in a way that deprecates self-esteem.
@kuped So are you living in the US or Saudi Arabia? Cuz im confused now. If you’re in the USA than these people would not have been arrested. However, if you are in Saudi Arabia than why the heck would a shopkeeper wish you a Merry Christmas in a supposedly strictly Muslim country?
This video has been shown in CA. at my college (Butte). I’m 63, a student there… I appreciate Jean’s message, BUT, do I see a bra on her? I think she dyes her hair… she is definitely wearing mascara, lipstick, rouge – and has had her hair “styled” for this presentation…. so she’s pretty much a hypocrite and this really steals her message away.  Doesn’t she feel she’s acceptable enough looking to present au natural? She should try! judyUtah~!~ Can’t Be Bought Productions
this was the most ridiculous piece of feminist tripe I have ever watched.
Women love to complain and say they have it hard, buuuuullllshiiiiitttt,
@pingidjit Tell that to my friend who was recently taken into custody for possession of s *gasp* Christmas tree.  Or the shopkeeper whom the Mutawa who pulled a Lebanese shopkeeper in for saying “Merry Christmas” to me last week. You need to get your facts straight.
