There is Lame and then there is Inane. This is Inane.
I was checking out Nickelodeon.com to see what kind of programming they are offering and I was led to a website for the show called Monster High. Basically, it is a website that acts as a platform for the show with games and videos and a glamorized monster theme. You can upload images of yourself and make yourself look like a monster, which is fun. The inane part is the actual show and the glamorizing of the monsters. How many frankenstein and dracula girls do you know that that have a size 0 waist and amazing curves? How many real girls have that kind of a figure? Not many. To be honest, this isn't just a problem with Monster High. Tons of shows and cartoons do this very thing. My beef with this site is that it takes it to a whole other level with the monster theme. For example, we all know that eating a 1/4lb hamburger isn't very nutritious, but still enjoyable. Monster high decided to take that 1/4lb hamburger, add three more patties, put 5 kinds of cheese on it and batter/deep fry the whole thing. It is just too much. And how can that much cheese and beef be good for anyone, let alone tweens? It can't.
