[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have not read all the posts but I  was disgusted by the half time show. It was at 8 pm - family prime time viewing. My tween was even embarrassed for J Lo. Shakira had more stompy fun but the pole dance, crotch grabbing, mooning through g strings and hypersexualized pouts and pelvic thrusts were not appropriate for a family sports show on at 8 pm. I did not find it empowering display of feminism for my daughter to watch but found it Demeaning and objectifying.  I wish they had highlighted Latino culture in more positive and creative ways.

What you are kidding right?

Stop shaming women.

Football is violent and you let you kid watch that probably every weekend!

Racism showing through here.

Grow up and worry about football and it’s culture instead of what the ladies were wearing.

I’m sure you didn’t complain about Adam Levine last year. [/quote]

Not shaming women - the opposite - not patronizing them by claiming a pseudo soft porn show was great art, empowering for women or appropriate for a family sports show.

We are a multiracial family so that mud sling is off-base.

We rarely watch football except for socially important games ... although I grew up in a football crazy culture. Strongly discouraged  DS from playing football due to head injuries and leg breaks. Would never let our daughter do cheer leading as we want her playing sports herself not belittling herself for male athletes. We just wanted to celebrate a robust national tradition in a tween friendly way.

If you equate growing up with condoning soft porn by super stars at half time super bowl shows, then perhaps you would do better to examine your own maturity/ social  judgment.[/quote]

If you can sit here and claim you watch a violent sport that promotes violence, while screaming about family values you need a reality check. You also need to explain how you dismiss the violence, numerous beer commercials and the culture of being drunk before and during games (not to mention the culture of abuse, drugs, and rape within the NFL). You don’t get to pick and choose what you think should be family friendly when absolutely nothing about NFL football is family friendly. Also, you know nothing about cheerleading but that’s a whole other issue of ignorance. [/quote]
