Tories – Lads’ mags to blame
August 18, 2008
Tory spokesman Michael Gove has slammed lads’ mags as the problem in today’s society for the lack of morals and responsibility when it comes to sex and the image of women.
In his speech he attacked magazines such as Nuts and Zoo for promoting an image of sex as free and uncomplicated…
“I believe we need to ask tough questions about the instant-hit hedonism celebrated by the modern men’s magazines targeted at younger males.”
“Titles such as Nuts and Zoo paint a picture of women as permanently, lasciviously, uncomplicatedly available. We should ask those who make profits out of revelling in or encouraging, selfish irresponsibility among young men what they think they’re doing.”
“The images they use and project reinforce a very narrow conception of beauty and a shallow approach towards women.”
