Are we going forwards at all?

There's these public service announcements on TV at the moment. They show normal looking guys saying things like "I only shoved her a few times, it's not like it's abuse or anything". (Cut to black screen with the words) IT IS.

"She came back to my hotel room, she knew what the score was. She said no but I kept going" (Cut to screen) THAT'S SEXUAL ASSAULT.

It appears to be aimed at young people.

Et Cetera. Firstly, I can't beleive this sort of advice is necessary in today's society. Secondly, if it is necessary (as someone has deemed - it's on TV after all) then that makes me extremely ashamed of society. These announcements are on late at night, and are vexing my knitting as well.

I would prefer this community service announcement:

If you're raising boys today you need to lift your game because they appear to have less respect for women today than they did in the previous generation.

Makes me wonder what Louis is going to turn out like. Hmm.
