Get Ready Men - We're Next...


It is often that write most at night when I should be sleeping. Tonight is not exception and for many reason recently, I am getting pumped to start a series for us men. That's right. We got issues. But we serve a God who is far beyond those.

So, here is Post #.05 to start it off. I saw this ad in a motorcycle magazine I got and wanted to share it. No wonder it's so hard for us men to keep our head, heart, minds, eyes above water when the whole culture around us just accepts and encourages us to follow primate behavior and not honor God's Word.

It reads: "Insuring Riders From Distractions For Over 30 Years"

Reflections: she isn't a cop - girls with those shades just look so weird...I don't get it - ha, but alas, this is supposed to be more serious. I was actually surprised at the obvious message behind this ad. Any thoughts?

And Ladies: any thoughts on how you feel about women being used in this form of advertising?

I really enjoyed your serious for the ladies, so I'm looking forward to reading this one, too.

As for the ad, my reaction is that since ads that target men seem to use women who look like this one does, this must be the type of women that men want. For me, that would mean that I am not the type of woman a man would be attracted to. Granted, I'm aware that advertising usually produces a pretty warped reaction, but it's still my first thought.

the woman in that ad is not even a little bit attractive
