Response to Kelcy

This is in response to the question about what ointment I would buy between Butt Paste A&D ointment and Vaseline. I think she has a very good point Butt Paste is very short and to the point which is good, yet I also think that the name hurts it a bit. If I were in the store I think that I would look at the Butt Paste laugh to myself and grab for the Vaseline. My reasoning being that the it is a funny packaging or name but realistically I want the best product that I can get which is Vaseline to me because it has been around a long time and I have used their products before. Would anyone else do the same?

Look Beyond the Brand

I recently read an article that was about a woman who recently had a discussion with her children about looking past the brand of someones clothes. She wanted to make sure that her children were not stereo typing others because of the brand names on their clothes whether or not they were something they thought was fashionable. I think this is a very important lesson for children to be learning. I believe a lot of the time we get caught up in what the latest and greatest brands are. Yes i know that it is nice to have nice clothes to wear but really all they are is something for you to wear. There are several other companies that sell the same thing with their logo on it. I thought this article was pretty interesting because I had never thought about it like this. I'm not saying that I have never stereo typed someone because of something they wear, but i will do my best from this point on because it is something I wouldn't want anyone to do to me.
Do you or have you ever stereo typed someone because of something that they were wearing?
