I was just studying this evening....and this question came up, I asked on hexus IRC but since not many people are available there, couldnt really get a discussion kind of, but still, wanted to ask here.
In most, if not all, TV shows and Movies ive seen, regarding teens and college students etc, show the good/cool/protagonist guy as not needing any studying...i mean, they never study, in every show/movie, the cool guy has to have a geek friend, who does all the mind work/studying...why is that so? Why cant cool college students study and be intelligent? Why do movies imply that good looking guys dont study and only geeky guys study? Plus doesnt that influence the young? In to thinking that bunking and not studying and skipping classes is cool and that studying is only for lame geeks?
When i was in college, atleast not long ago, that was the major view, the guys who used to study, were never cool....always had geek group...a side table...and that is what we see on media...isnt that a bad thing?...what do you guys think?
