Mom of NBA star Kevin Durant takes stand against over-sexualized culture

[Old Fart]

The mother of an Oklahoma City NBA star said today's society is so over-sexualized that very young children are contemplating sexual matters.

“They should be dreaming about being an artist or a dancer. They should be dreaming of being the president or a doctor. Instead they're thinking of sexual things. It really hurts my heart,” said Wanda Pratt, mother of Oklahoma City Thunder star forward Kevin Durant.

Pratt spoke Tuesday to about 150 people who attended the “Shine the Light” event Tuesday at Wheeler Park, 1120 S Western. The event was part of “She's Somebody's Daughter,” an anti-pornography campaign launched Oct. 1 in Oklahoma City.

She said adults have become desensitized to the over-sexualization she described as pervasive in today's culture and she encouraged attendees to take a stand against advertisements and things that offend them and exploit others.

What age group is she talking about? I'm still spry enough to remember my youth and regardless of what was in the music/media/etc, it's still all I could think about.

Blame the internet and lack of parenting... When I was a kid, like most, I would sneak my sisters Sears catalog... Now with the internet, I can just go straight to sears.com

One of my cousins got busted for that once when I was a kid.
He took a pen and scribbled in bush & nipples on the women's underwear section.

The medical books at the library, and National Geographic were most young men's introduction to what was under those clothes of the fairer sex..........at least that is what I was told.

hahaha... Many years ago, I took "Human Sexuality" in college to fill a psych credit. I thought it'd be alright. Might pick up pointers and such. It was three months of STD slides. What has been seen cannot be unseen
