I had heard much commotion about Willow's "Whip My Hair" video, so I figured I'd watch it and blog about it. WOW is all I can say. I'm not only the mother of a son now, but I have been and still am the older sister of a 9-year-old and 16-year-old sisters... AND a 7th grade middle school teacher... teacher... teacher... which is why I'm particularly confused/bewildered/in a state of "really?!?" at the end of this video. A teacher/lady in red leads the class in a classic stripper, whip-my-hair routine that I honestly thought was soft porn. Red, leather-tight outfit, classic hooker shoes, hip-throwin, split-making moves kinda give it that appeal. What's even more interesting is hearing so-called believers of Jesus Christ enjoy and applaud the "talents" revealed in this video, sitting in the couch or with their child on the computer saying, "Oh wow! That's amazing; they better do it!" Then they wonder all the while why their daughters are beginning to take on the idea that, "hey, my mom/dad think her moves are tight and all the kids are hype when the girls dance like that. I wonder..." and the story finds its own end. Sneakiness, promiscuity... whether it be in radical dress or oral sex to please Bobby. You think I'm extreme when I say that, but my reality is factual... I'm a middle school teacher!!!!!!!!!
For my parents/uncles/aunts/etc who confess they believe in Jesus, remember
1 John 2:15-16 "Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world."So let me ask you, based purely on the WORD OF GOD... what's in you and what are you putting in the gift God trusted you to raise?
