The new Gossip Girl promo features a steamy sex scene and the Internet lingo abbreviation “OMFG,” which creates a problem because the crowd who understands what OMFG means is probably not an appropriate audience for the picture.

These kids are supposed to be 16 right? No pair of 16-year-olds has steamy sex. They have quick, awkward sex in semi-private unsexy locations. Or maybe the rich really do live differently? Didn’t Paris’ mom get sex lessons from some dude in a van?
No shit, Lisa. If 16 year olds have sex like that I’ll eat my shoes. I’m lucky if I get sex like that, usually it’s just a tap on the shoulder and “Wanna do it?”. Real sexy.
seriously, i think this show makes sex look so much cooler and more normal for 9th graders. and that really concerns me.
Last month we caught and 8th grader getting blow jobs from a 7th grader. I wish that wasn’t a true story.
Well that sure is creepy. I remember sex at 16. It didn’t looks like that. I had no idea about what I wanted from a man. I just sorta laid there and hoped for the best .. or, I tried really hard to be “sexy” and ended up looking like an idiot.
Now, I’m 29 and am pretty sure sex never looks like that. It’s dirtier :)
It is HOT though!
uhhh…that’s gross.
Sex at 17 for me was kinda like that but maybe it was cuz I was with a college guy. It’s a pretty hot pic which means this is a bit much for the Gossip Girl crowd.
God, SnackySmores, are you married to my husband? That’s about as steamy as it gets in my house too. If I’m really lucky, I get woken up with a leg hump in the morning. *poke poke*
My biggest gripe about it, besides that it’s age inappropriate, is the OMFG. Why and where does God figure into that? I HATE that expression!!!
That’s probably why God doesn’t answer our prayers. He used to show up every time we called his name, but he got sick of seeing short-sighted striplings snowballing.
As a parent of a pre teen and a teenager this advertising infuriates me. Aside from using the insinuated word ‘fuck’ for a tv show aimed at teenagers, the idea that sex is something they Should be doing and apparantly doing it like a porn star really pisses me off. I try to teach my kids to WAIT until they are older because it’s not something to play around with and crap like this may well undo all the lecturing I do!!!
Just relax, ladies. First off, sex IS this steamy with some women. Just because that isn’t true in your case may mean that instead of blaming the “poke on the leg” guy you instead should initiate hot and steamy sex with your man.
Second, regarding high school sex: most of us had it. Most of us acknowledge it was awkward at first. Many of us found it pretty darned hot and steamy shortly thereafter. Maybe the problem once again is the prudishness I read here.
Third, regarding “appropriateness.” Again, most of us did it in high school. I needed no encouragement from a TV show. Girls who “wouldn’t” still “didn’t” despite a TV show. And OMFG? I think it refers to the dude that Blake’s character is with (as in it will be a huge surprise when we see a bigger picture of…a three-way etc. or that this dude is some Dad or whatever), not to the humpfest apparently going on in the picture. So let’s stop being so whiny and prudish. Kids will have sex and say OMFG just like we did when we were…kids.
God curse you, you foul demon of Hell. You style yourself “Lord of the Pants,” but you are the Great Satan in form and spirit:
- You shamelessly tempt our daughters to perform wayward and shameful acts.
- You make light of the use of profanity by children whose immortal souls are in peril.
- You describe a depraved practice, sex during high school, as common, when in fact it is a practice that has been condemned by God and all His holy entourage.
You will burn in Hell, sir, where you will be forced to have sex with the very ugliest girls who “wouldn’t” and “never did.” They will lay there like dead fish, demanding that you do all the work. They will have vagina-acne. They will want to remain in bed with you after the shameful deed is done and talk about “relationships.” Enjoy your life on this Vale of Tears, for soon it will be over … and Renee Zellweger will be waiting for you.
I sure hope that these girls use scare quotes while I am banging them!
We do a great job of getting caught in a situation where parents can’t talk to their children about a subject so children end up getting the messages from billboards.
