i mean, as a single parent, tryin to run a business and feed the baby, tryin to figure this online thing out (people are on here changin their lives), y'know, im guilty of turnin on the tv for my daughter, so that i can focus on what i think is important for us. one of my favorite channels for that is Nick, Jr., cause they show a lot of educational shit. but some shit just pops out at me when i watch it. i'm just sayin...
...why is Dora the Explorer, the only Spanish language show, the one that's bound to attract young Latino viewers, is the only cartoon that feels it needs to teach kids not to steal? young LATINO kids? it's the only cartoon on the channel where the principal character lives in a climate of crime. look at them... scared of the fox dipped in blue, with his flag wrapped around his head? is he a Crip? i'm just sayin...
this is Kai Lan. she teaches kids words and phrases in the Chinese language. my daughter has already impressed the dry cleaner with her command of Mandarin. but because she's Chinese, did they have to OVERSTATE the fact that her eyes are not little slits? but her grandfather on the show eyes are? and whats up with the eyes anyway? look at them long enuff and really tell me if they dont make you feel like she's peering thru u? psychological attention grabber? subliminal message sender? i'm just sayin...
this is from 'Yo Gabba Gabba', where the creator, or at least the maintainer of this universe is a black man (the black man is god, yo), who happens to be a DJ, by the name of DJ Lance. as a real bboy, the dj has controlled my world for some time now. not a bad message for my daughter. but...
WHAT THE FUCK DOES THIS LOOK LIKE? SERIOUSLY?
and imma leave it at that. im just sayin....
this is Widget from 'Wow Wow Wubzy'. believe it or not, this is a female character. she fixes cars and trucks and is always inventing new machines and gadgets for the whole team to use. a good lesson for any little girl, i think, to be creative and to challenge what's considered to be a 'man's job' if she's better qualified for it. i teach my daughter all the time that she's capable of anything. but i mean, come on, look at her. she looks about as girlie as Ellen DeGeneres's early stand up outfits. what else is a feminine indicator besides the color pink? now a days, that dont mean shit. these dudes wear fuschia. sneakers. and still try to look hard. i dont know... i aint got nothin against the gays, i mean, they make the hottest clothes. what i'm sayin is, i think maybe she's been to a couple of parties where Bert n Ernie are probably well known regulars. and Perez Hilton. and Mitt Romney (watch). i'm just sayin...
