So [advertisers] were able to get away with an ad for a feminine hygiene spray that said, 'Feminine odor is everyone's problem.' Or a cigarette ad where a woman said, 'My boyfriend told me he loved me for my mind. I was never so insulted in my life.' Or an ad for a construction material, which showed a nude woman with a sort of large derriere and thighs, and the copy read, 'She's built like all our products ... heavy where she has to take the strain.'. – Jean Kilbourne	Found on CNN 8 years ago
The message a child gets is that not only is another person's emotional state their responsibility but that they must also sacrifice their own bodies to buoy another's ego or satisfy their desire for love or affection, certainly no parent would wish for their teenager or adult child to feel pressure to reciprocate unwanted sexual advances, yet many teach their children at a young age that it's their job to use their bodies to make others happy. – Jennifer Lehr	Found on CNN 8 years ago

The only way to accelerate the life experience process, since they're just kids and don't have a lot of life experiences, is to go on a journey learning from other people's life experiences, so when you read a book with your children, ask them questions about how the main character might be feeling or what motivates the main character or what you would do if you were in their shoes. – Sofia Dickens	Found on CNN 8 years ago

As a Londoner I can't say I'm familiar with all the labels on their schedule, but if you'd asked the New Yorkers the same question when the London men's shows launched, they'd probably have said the same. And I knew all those London designers. So I can't say how mature these businesses are on average, but I think a big part of these young men's weeks is the fact that it's the individual city doing it for their city, once this fashion week has hopefully worked its magic for these young designers, the international guests won't want to miss it. – Anders Christian Madsen	Found on CNN 8 years ago
The buzz around the new generation New York men's fashion scene is still relatively in its infancy. – Simon Chilvers	Found on CNN 8 years ago
Based solely on American menswear history, I would say it's defined by a mix of modernity and functionality. And, of course, business savvy. – Anders Christian Madsen	Found on CNN 8 years ago

The vote by the executive committee to recommend that gay, lesbian and bisexual adults be allowed to work and volunteer for the Boy Scouts is a welcome step toward erasing a stain on one of our nation's most storied organizations, but writing in an exemption for troops organized by religious organizations undermines the potentially historic nature of today's vote. – Chad Griffin	Found on CNN 8 years ago
