Do you think “intellect” has taken a back seat to fun/pleasures?

Question by Larry: Do you think "intellect" has taken a back seat to fun/pleasures? Do you think "intellect" has taken a back seat to fun/pleasures? I come in contact with literally, several thousand people every day. And as I watch the different specticals of parades of people whom I pass, some with huge earrings, and that's just the gentlemen, and rings in and on every part of the body and face one can and can't imagine. Then we have the "expression" of tattoos. Now I'm not against one having a tattoo or even a few well placed designs that can be easily concealed, but to paint ones' face and neck and arms and chest to the point where you can't even make out what you're trying to admire, is somewhat ridiculous for my taste. Then we have the piercings and the clothing. We won't even begin to discuss some of the sights, that clothing can reveal. And I thought nose-rings were only meant for bulls, but I digress. As for clothing, I think underclothes were designed just for that reason, and if one chooses to wear a lace night for a shirt, that's fine for their own personal pleasures in the privacy of their homes. But I'm still not convinced we're looking "more intelligent" when one chooses to wear all this in any one given day, especially with boots and a cow-girl hat.... In any case, do you think this can be a reflection of a country lacking Intelligence or just a matter or morals and/or lack of them. Because, when it comes time that I have to tell a young lady to put her "breast" back in her shirt or to tell a young man that he cannot come into my workplace with it "butt" sticking out of his pants, somethings very wrong...I don't have a problem so much with the youth and others dressing in this manner as long as it's done with taste, but you don't have to show your a Best answer:

Answer by LynnTo each their own, dude. Don't get your freshly ironed undies in a bunch. I have blue hair, stretched earlobes, I wear short shorts and tank tops, and I'm a Principal's List student who's never been involved in any morally questionable activities in my life. Don't judge the crazy youngsters by their appearance.
