"Oh baby baby how was I suppose to know, that my director was in Porno" - The actual accounted lyrics of the Britney Spears song

So basically my jaw hit the floor when I found out two classes ago that Mandy Moore and Britney Spears first debut videos were directed by a former porn director. Now I would like to think that maybe someday I can live by the code of benefit of the doubt, but if 95% of the videos the director made before were porn then he must use the same directing techniques in these videos. Our society is sick! I am all out convinced and at this point, I pray I have good sense to really think before I have kids. Our culture has deeply rooted pornographic values all through out our schools, workplaces and media. Porn creates a revenue of 10 billion dollars within our society; that's 10 billion dollars of porn movies/events/ and other paraphernalia that our economy banks on from U.S consumers. I am a huge proponent of one's personal rights/freedoms and sexual exploitation bought in a CD or online value packages is an example of those rights. However, there are those who wish to not have porn in their bought and paid for media. There are parents who do not wish for their little boys and girls to witness overt porn-like sexuality of their Disney hero. But maybe ignorance in bliss. If they do not know that Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Mandy Moore had their billboard #1 hit music videos directed by a porn star then maybe they wouldn't be susceptible to ideals of the porn industry.  And maybe breast implants can provide children with natural milk and Viagra can turn your sex life into a never ending roller coaster of orgasms. But we don't live at Walgreen's and the world is prone to cause and effect. my nieces love the younger Britney spear videos and songs and they love Miley Cyrus even when she dances in bird feathers behind a cage. I am scared really scared because they are so young and brilliant but they will not recognize their potential if they are bombarded by sexual images of their idols. I see them so easily feeling inadequate and ugly because they do not fit these ideals. All because the music industry saw dollar signs at the prospect of hiring a porn director for their upcoming teen stars. I see no difference between "Girls Gone Wild and these videos.
There is something wrong with our culture, some dark lust for sexualized young, hairless girls and boys. We are one of the top three importers of human trafficking, more than 70% being women and young children. Is anybody out there? Can anybody see this? Its too obvious!!! Its in our faces!!! Or is it that nobody wants to see, hear realize that each and every one of us is part of the problem.
