Media homo-phobia is getting so old.

take a look at this commercial. It clearly exaggerates the "male expectation" while completely bashing homosexuals or metro-sexuals, its insulting and homo-phobic. Its crazy to think that people still think like this.

Strict Bans in France Immediately Effective

This is quite interesting:
I was reading an article this morning about the new laws that the French government recently put into effect. Apparently, the French has become very strict on muslims or rather anyone covering their face with a veil, regardless its significance. Because of their obvious disdain with the cultural practice, they have enforced a ban that will give the French government the rights to fine any tourist or citizen $215 for covering their face with a veil in public and anyone that forces a woman to wear a veil in public will face up to A YEAR in prison and receive a $43,000 fine. This ban has already taken immediate effect in classrooms were muslims student are absolutely prohibited from wearing scarves. This article was absolutely mind blowing to me because these strict bans are far from enforced in the US. Its just unbelievable to me that a country would practically disregard a cultural practice to satisfy their own intent.
