« Previous EntriesGirls Just Wanna … Act Like Strippers?
Wednesday, August 12th, 2009Even comic Dane Cook is tired of Hollywood starlets acting like Midriffs. So tired, in fact, that he shouted out serial midriff and Disney teen queen Vanessa Hudgens at Monday’s Teen Choice Awards: “Can I just say what everybody in this room is thinking, but nobody has said? Where’s Vanessa Hudgens? Girl, you’ve got to [...]
More Mooks and Midriffs
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008Much love and appreciation to Youth Pastor Jeff Graves and Senior Pastor Lloyd Syvertson of Grace Church in New Jersey for inviting me to an innovative parents’ outreach at the Ridgewood Public Library. Pastor Jeff attended the Mooks, Midriffs, Myspace & More workshop at the National Outreach Convention in San Diego last November and figured [...]
Targeted Advertising
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008Perhaps Myspace saw this, or just received lots of disgruntled emails from Christians subscribers. But today I noticed a different kind of advertising when I logged into Myspace. Instead of the usual underwear clad teenage girl urging me to be “naughty,” I saw this: Myspace’s targeted advertising department got the Christian part down. But the [...]
Growing Up Online
Friday, March 14th, 2008John Liotti and Chris Brooks scooped me on this, but PBS Frontline continued it’s must-view documentary look at youth culture and media in a new series called “Growing up Online.” It basically picks up where “Merchants of Cool” left off five or so years ago. It’s must-see TV for anyone interested in youth ministry and/or [...]
Mook/Midriff behavior leads to this: 1 in 4 Teen Girls have STDs
Tuesday, March 11th, 2008Alarming, or is it in light of this? A virus that causes cervical cancer is by far the most common sexually transmitted infection in teen girls aged 14 to 19, while the highest overall prevalence is among black girls — nearly half the blacks studied had at least one STD. That rate compared with 20 [...]

“Leading Lads Who Lost it Early”
Monday, November 19th, 2007ABC News joined the Mook parade by posting a photo gallery last week celebrating celebrity men who lost their virginity “early.” Among the celebrants: + Ike Turner, who lost his at the age of 6 to a “a middle-aged next-door neighbor named Miss Boozie.” + Sean Connery, who remembers being 8, but “can’t recall with [...]
Blogging NOC07: More Mookish Behavior by MTV
Friday, November 9th, 2007Flying to San Diego to give the “Mooks, Midriffs, Myspace & More” seminar at the National Outreach Convention, a scene on a new MTV show caught my eye (thanks to JetBlue). A college-aged guy was getting his genitals waxed on camera, in front of a mixed group of guys and girls who relished in his [...]
