If sex appeal sells why is television turning its back on it?
-
Men are genetically programmed to respond to visual cues about sex. Men are programed biologically to respond to a certain type of women, now nature can alter that some what but not always. So why has television gone to older women actresses (the good wife) and put every attractive female star into non attractive roles (cop) or clothing (district attorney) Is ideology actually beating profitability in the entertainment sector?

Answer:
Probably because now with the internet there is a change in the demographics of people who watch T.V.

Which genes are you talking about here? It would be helpful to know. You sound very confident. Also, which types of women, and which genes cause men to only go for these certain types? Anyway, problems: 1. Most all women and men respond to visual, sexual cues. So... 2. You are suggesting that men will only watch something for visual, sexual cues. Men are really stupid aren't they? No interests other than sex, and certainly no willingness to have anything to do with women or -even- watch women on TV they don't want to ogle. Men who feel like that about women are known around here as "nice guys." AKA men who have no luck with the ladies. 3. You are suggesting all men, including older men, don't find older women attractive. 4. You are suggesting men can't find cops or attorneys attractive. 5. You are suggesting a significant amount of Tv executives care about ideology over profits. Dream on.

To be honest with you brother, I don't know what TV you are watching. It's wall to wall sex on TV these days. That's why I cut most of TV out of my life except the news, sports and the military and science channel.

Television advertising panders to the gender that controls the majority of consumer spending (i.e. women). Women are the low-hanging fruit that share the left-wing ideology of actors, TV executives, and corporate limousine liberals, so the shows are geared towards their interests. The media laments how hard it is to reach the 18-24 male audience, but all it can think of to attract them are sports, violence, and Hawt Chix. Men can get more interactive violence from playing video games and TV can't compete with online p0rn for the Hawt Chix, so it is in fact men who are turning their backs on TV as well. Someone could strain his brain a little bit and produce a show about a criminal mastermind MRA who targets feminists and m@g!nas or one about a man who left the U.S. for a happier business and "romantic" life, but that would be career suicide in these PC times. So that's why we endure the bad wife, the jackboot, and the lawyer. COD, anyone?
