Goodbye Cosmo Girl! One Can Only Hope.

Check out this cool website www.projectinspired.com.   It was born out of an idea from a young model who also happens to be a Christian sister. She is fed up with what the secular media are handing us in terms of what they are marketing to young girls as well as how they are using younger and younger models and actresses to sell their product. She is also all for looking our best, but doing so with modesty. Amen sister! Her name is Nicole Weider and currently she is targeting Cosmo Magazine and she already has received 10,000 signatures for her petition drawing attention to the very inappropriate, and for the most part, pornographic content and over-sexualized images and headlines on its cover. 

She has contacted the Federal Trade Commission and is hoping supermarkets that still sell the magazine will at least be required to sell it in a non-transparent wrapper. At best, she is hoping that the magazine will not be available at the check-out counter where its sleazy headlines and photos of scantily clad women are there for all to see. You can sign her petition and find out more info about the campaign and her other very valid cultural concerns at her web site, www.projectinspired.com.
