Real Men Don't Pay to Play..Celebrity Anti- Trafficking Campaign

Thursday, April 14, 2011 , Posted by HTMZ.COM at 9:40 AM






Demi Moore and her husband Ashton Kutcher came up with the ridiculous “Real Men Don’t Buy Girls” anti-sex slavery campaign for their DNA Foundation (Demi & Ashton Foundation). The campaign has been highly criticized by the critics, who considered it “inappropriately light”.

The nonsense short videos feature big celebrities like Bradley Cooper, Jamie Foxx, Sean Penn, Drake, Justin Timberlake and the Old Spice guy (Isaiah Mustafa) doing chores “real men” are supposed to know how to do, but they do not “buy girls” (watch videos below).

The “Real Men” concept is really tragic. I cannot understand what message exactly they are trying to send. The “Real Men” in the videos cannot really do their own laundry, don’t know how to use an iron or a remote control and make a meal.

So what’s that suppose to mean? The men in the videos do buy girls? It certainly looks like that… are Demi and Ashton trying to say Bradley Cooper, Sean Penn and Jamie Foxx NEVER hired the services of adult entertainers (hookers!) to satisfy their sexual fantasies? Seriously!?!

What I’m trying to say is that it’s more than an inappropriate concept, the celeb cast is questionable and unfortunate. Actresses, Eva Longoria and Jessica Biel, also act like “frames” (objects) as they introduce a “real man” at the end of videos.

Matthew Vadum of the Capital Research Center in Washington D.C said: “It’s even more difficult than usual to take celebrities seriously when they put out flippant ads like this. Justin Timberlake shaving with a chainsaw? What exactly is the message here? There is a huge difference between ‘funny’ and foolishness.”

Psychologist Dr. Nancy Irwin said: “The ads are not addressing the issue; they are veering off in another direction in a ‘gender joke’ attempt. With the enormous amount of heart and creativity available in both Moore and Kutcher, it would be preferable and a stronger message for the public to present male models of healthy sexuality with respect for women,” Irwin said. “Taking on traditional female activities such as knitting, ironing or cooking does not make a man. The answer to abuse of females is not to make men more like women.”
