Sorry for not posting yesterday, a little busy these days, well anyways today I would like to bring "Your Body & Name as Advertisement Space" in the focus.
There have been quite a number of offers on ebay and otherwise for people willing to put a brand name on their forehead for say five years for an amount of money or keep their babies names as a brand name (there was a offer for Pepsi) for a period of time.
There has been a lot of hue and cry over it, especially the name of the babies. Under Law it is absolutely legal (both: forehead and names).
My point is that why the hell are we poking our nose in between, especially for the forehead case. History is evidence to the fact that people have always opposed "quick rich" tricks, mainly because they are jealous.
I agree that keeping name of their babies is kinna wrong, cause the child may undergo emotional trauma from peer group for no fault of his/her. There should be a law, like you can't use the body space or the name till the child is a minor and also without his consent even if he is a major.
But I don't see what’s wrong if some adults are willing to rent their foreheads, if its helps them to earn some money, which might be used for education or healthcare etc, then what’s our problem in it. It’s their forehead after all. So, What do u think?

well, its nice to learn that ur concerned in such things. As for me, well I could tolerate the idea of people allowing companies to rent their foreheads, especially if they are very much in need financially. But in the case of the babies name, i think parents should show their love n concern for their kids by giving them beautiful names.
By the way, CS stands for College Scholar. It's our university's term for Dean Lister.
