2. Probably as drunk as you need to be to watch it..
Those commercials make me ill. Co-opting "Girl Power" esp galls me.

3. There was this girl in my screenwriting class
They tried to get her to flash and she didn't, but they used her in the commercial anyway. Their apology was to send her the DVD for free, and she still gets all the new ones free too. Weird, huh?

4. Is it me or is it 99% white girls on these spots
I only notice the ads flipping through cable channels late at night, and I cannot remember if I have seen a girl of color on them.

18. yeah
It's mostly white girls, Snoop Dogg had an agreement with them to make videos, but had a falling out with them because he felt that they didn't include enough ladies of color, on another note, I saw a true hollywood story type thing about the guy who founded GGW, he's so rich now, and he's a complete asshole

5. You'd be surprised.
I remember when I was on spring break about three years ago a group of friends and I managed to get all kinds of girls to flash our video cameras and do a bunch of crazy stuff with barely a drop to drink.

Lavishing attention can go really far with some girls.

7. Not very drunk at all, I'm afraid.
As a mother of a 16 year old daughter, I'm telling you things have changed completely. The culture these girls are growing up only repsects them if the look and act like Hooters girls, talk like hos, and aspire to find the fastest and easiest way to have it all without much effort.

9. How did this happen?
For heaven's sake, I know young women who find Sex and the City to be empowering. How did women move from liberation to self-degradation in thirty years time?

10. They think womens liberation
Edited on Sat Apr-02-05 04:52 AM by WatchWhatISay
is really just a euphamism for lesbianism. Which they abhor, although bisexuality is OK, because they really just do that for the benefit of the guys.

8. Not all that drunk. Those women
Edited on Sat Apr-02-05 04:27 AM by BlueIris
have the self-esteem of your average piece of celery. I betcha it's never even occurred to them that they're being exploited. They think it's hot. It's your basic, "well, I'm in college, I perceive myself to be happy and intelligent, theoretically, as a college graduate, I will have a career, maybe even a good, stable one, I've had some satisfactory relationships in the past and I may have more--but if men do not think my breasts are pretty, as in, pretty enough to have randomly videotaped so millions of strangers can jack off to my vacant expression and vulgar display of my 'sexuality' in tapes referring to me as a 'coed' and a 'girl,' then I might as well be worthless!!" So fucking pathetic.

11. One doesn't necessarily have to be drunk to do it.
I'd do it to get my "career" off the ground as an actress or just because I would love it if lots of people wanted to look at the twins. :P

12. I have seen those ads and just don't get it.

14. That's a good question.
Of course, to get an answer, we'd have to have someone admit to having purchased or perhaps been around someone who was purchasing one of those messed up things.

15. Third-hand knowledge
a co-worker received one as a gift, talked about it at the office.

He didn't think much of it, actually.

Closest I've been to someone who's acknowledge purchasing this nonsense.

17. A question..
Would you have to sign a release to be put in one of these videos? Could you sue if they sold it without your knowledge of being taped? I always thought the girls got pulled to the side and signed a form and got some beer money to flash. I know some of the videos have girl-on-girl scenes and that would require proof of age for sure. I imagine they wouldn't want to sell 15 year old boobies so I assume it isn't as random as it appears. They sell the image of awesome parties with boobies and you can't be here so buy the video and live through our camera.

P.S. I have downloaded and watched one with Bittorrent..
