Since I was an avid watcher of YTV and just about every form of TV aimed at kids in the 90s (Hang Time, City Guys, Full House, Family Matters, One Saturday Morning everything, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Boy Meets World, One World, that one with the genie, etc etc ETC), I remember this PSA playing just ALL THE TIME. What amazes me is watching it again now, I somehow remember all of the words. It is kind of cheesy, and the outfits are just the best, but I very much appreciate the message behind it and am so glad that I grew up in a time where this positive message was being expressed. I can only hope that girls growing up today are exposed to something like this (although I am pretty convinced that no one really watches commercials anymore or television on their tvs), because I think that my friends and I owe many of our views to growing up watching videos like this. In any case, this PSA makes for an effective mission statement for Feminist Werewolf.
