Nisey Williams Pop Culture Analysis
THE EFFECT OF POP CULTURE ON TEENS…………………
In olden times and culture, there were “doors” for everything. Always a thin but solid line to distinguish between good and bad. ‘Shyness’ was considered an ornament for every girl, whether she is a daughter, sister or a wife. But the pop culture has busted out all the “doors” and made the world a “Showcase”. The present youth is highly exposed and influenced by pop culture.

As today’s teens are very much exposed to pop culture and influenced by their emphasis on sex. In the essay author Nisey Williams expresses her fear to become a mother, not because of the pain that she has to go through for giving birth to a child but because she is afraid that she might have a daughter. She feels so because she knows that it is impossible for her to protect her daughter from the influence of pop culture, fifteen years later when she would be at her puberty (Para-1, Pg-276).
I agree with Nisey Williams as I too believe that pop culture has a very bad influence on Teens.

The clothing market is booming up targeting “tweens” – children between the ages of eight and twelve who are in the in between stages of adolescence and teenagehood. This fuels up the pop culture.
The author states pop stars like Britney Spears, Shakira, Jessica Simpson, Pink, J-Lo, etc. responsible for the cause of this hazard to the lives of young girls. On the name of art these pop stars do business. They are not true artist as they are not here to show their creativity and talent but they are here to make money, by almost any means. They make money from fashion world and media and in turn fashion world and the media make money from their fame. But they do not know that they have put the future of their country, i.e. the youth into darkness. Youngsters are very sensitive regarding their Suthar 4 emotions for their stars and thus some people end up smoking and drinking just because they see their so called pop stars doing the same and looking very cool and attractive.
