Pop_Culture_Vs._Religion

Pop Culture Vs. Religion The conflict between pop culture and religious values is an extremely popular and often overlooked bicultural bind. In many women’s lives not recognizing this bind could be emotionally damaging and lead to living double lives. Many girls that are raised in Christian homes are not exposed to true pop culture until they reach high school. They are often sheltered from the world by their blood family and their church family. Once they are exposed to pop culture and they can start making their own decisions the line between right and wrong becomes gray to them and they fall into a trap of living one life to please their parents and then another life to fit in with their friends. When this happens they tend to lose sight of who they really are and what really makes them happy. I discovered this bicultural bind in my own life when I was a freshman in high school. For me I began modeling at the age of fourteen and I was exposed to all sorts of things that were accepted as normal in that environment, but looked upon as a sin in my home.
