Speak Up

I don't really know much about your topic but I think the radio should have strict censorship. Do we really want our kids listening to that kind of stuff, for all of you who have kids? I think the radio should be a clean place to listen to music.

Personally, I am quite comfortable with the censorship on the radio today. I do feel, however, that music videos are far too revealing, but that is irrelevent to you topic.

I don't think that is so much the censorship that is a problem. It's more the songwriters. I don't understand why many of today's singer/songwriters find the need to mention sex, drugs, alcohol and death in most of the songs they write. I think it's the overall message of the song that is the problem, not specific one-word lyrics.

I think that censorship of music is a good thing because not all lyrical content is appropriate for children. If you are buying the CD, then you should be mature enough to handle what is in it, but if you are listening to the radio (which many young children have access to) you may not be expecting explicit lyrics. I think that censorship should stay in place because parents do not want their children repeating racey statements they hear in songs and someday I know I won't want my children to either.

I personally do not want to poisin my ears with profanity in songs, so I listen to songs without profanity in them. I like songs that tell it how it is. If you don't have a bigger vocabulary then that, that just shows your IQ level.

I think that the problem is when the writer takes a perfectly good song like, sugar, sugar, crazy train, or another brick inthe wall. and destroyes it's origanal messige and makes it rude and crude

I think that censoring music is wrong. One word in a song is not going to make a difference in the meaning. If you don't want your kids listening to it, then turn it off. make sure that what they're listening to is ok. why should an artist have to change a song or the meaning of a song just so the public can listen to it. It's not fair to the artist writing it. The 1st Amendment gives the artist a freedom to write whatever they want. Who are we to say if it's ok or not?

I don't really think that censoring music is wrong because it is something that sometimes need to be done. A lot of kids these days are learning things from the media and the music industry is a big media thing too because everyone listens to the music. maybe it is best to censor the music so that people who do tend to do things due to the media, they know what they shouldn't do.

Personally I have two views toward this topic. Yes I think that music on public radiowaves should be censored because from hearing all those young little boys and girls of America running around saying fuck this fuck that damn shit hell and bitch you would think that it comes from home. It really doesn't come from home, home is part of it, but in the real truth our children act on what they see and hear. If they hear Tone E. Fly on B96 say go slap a bitch then they think that is morally right and that there is no consequence in such a thing. Unfortunately this isn't true...statistically more kids know lots of swear words and inappropriate actions by the time they are 7 than any of us did when we were all that age. It is really sad to see America's youth turning into a bunch of rude ass holes. However on the other side of the argument music is free speech as stated in the 1rst amendment so by censoring music are we infringing on that right? That is another question for another argument for another time.

I think that the music industry needs to set a standard for what can and can't be said on the radio and stick to it. It seems like every year more and more words are being allowed. The meaning of many words didn't change, so why can they be played this year and not last year? I think that TV needs to be censored more too. Many people watch more TV than they do listening to the radio, so why not set standards for both of them?

I feel that censorship on the radio is taken a little bit too far. I understand that it is the FCC's obligation to moniter and make sure that radio programs will not offend any U.S citizens. However, people are offended by varying things and no matter what at some point there is always going to be someone complaining about the content on the radio. I feel censorship should continue on but there should be guidelines set up that are official government guidelines that will be implemented and remain steady for ever.

I think that the censorhip issue has gotten a little out of hand. Expecialy on the radio anyone with any sort of a brain can probly figue out what the words that they blip out or change are soposed to be anyway and also the artist shouldnt have to change the meaning of his music so that it can be played. I think the FCC is just a little to obsessed with the hole thing and the Janet Jackson thing she had a sticker on her boob. Two years a go Lil Kim shows up to the VMA's with just than on one of her boobs and not much was said then true thats on cable but i bet a lot more kids see that then the Super Bowl thing.

I THINK MUSIC ROCKS AND IT HELPS SHAPE US ALL UP TO BE THE PEOPLE WE ARE TODAY AND TO HELP US WHEN WE GO THROUGH DIFFICULT TIMES AND WELL AND ARTIST IS AN ARTIST AND HE OR SHE SHOULD NOT BE RESTRICTED TO SPEAK IN ANY WAY OR FORM THEY WANT B/C THIS IS WHAT MAKES MUSIC SO TOUCHING!!!!!!!1 IT(MUSIC) IS SUPPOSED TO TOUCH YOUR HEART AND SOUL!!!!!!!! HOW CAN YOU RELATE TO IT IF IT'S NOT REALISTIC?!!!!! COMMON SENSE PEOPLE~~!!!!!! I MEAN IF U DON'T LIKE IT THEN TOUGHT LUCK AND DON'T LISTEN TO IT OR JUST TURN THE TV OFF AND READ A BOOK BUT A MOVIE,SONG,BOOK, OR PROGRAM ON TV IS ALL JUST THE SAME TO ME IN SOME WAY B/C THERE'S USUALLY VIOLANCE OR "NEGATIVITY"...I MEAN THERE'S MORE BAD STUFF GOING ON WITH CARTOONS THAT KIDS WATCH THAN THERE IS IN MUSIC SO PEOPLE PLEASE JUST SHUT UP AND USE YOUR BRAIN!!!!!!!!!! MUSIC IS AS FREE AS ANYTHING AND IT SHOULD BE LIKE THAT 4EVER!!!!!!!! :-) LOVE YA'LL GOD BLESS!!!!! BYEEEEEEEE

You cant censor lyrics from music. They are just word and the beholder is the one inturperating the lyrics and cencoering is a load of bull ****.

hi this is bob and i am 6 i am doing a debate at school about how they should not censor music.u know G! I read some of ur comments and I got some great ideas.THNX BOB

Censoring music is a removement of our natural rights as an american. It kills the song u are listening to yether it is a bleep or a blank spot with nothing at all. If you don't like that type of music then u should not be listening to it. If u would just use your right of choice u could leave the rappers alone and let them expand their right of free speach.

There shouldnt be a strict censorshere. Ihip on the radio. They now edit everything. How can you lisen to a dj talk about something funny or tell a joke and cant here the punch line. They try to stop kids from hearing all the bads things people sing about. Well they can go to a store and buy the same thing you hear. If you lisen to howard Stern all you hear is beeps cause they bleep out a joke that does not have a swear or saying somthing wrong, but they think its wrong. Pretty soon There going to be on talking and the radio because of this. Sry about the spelling but just think these people just dont think the way we think

I feel that artists should not have to create a radio edit for their music. If you're concerned about your kids listening to it, you shouldn't be. Let them listen to whatever they want. They're goin to be exposed anyway so it may as well be early on. Talk to them about it. You can also plug your ears if you don't like what you're hearing.

First off, i want to thank whoever started this site, you really helped me with an essay. Music seriously should'nt be censored, it doenst take a rocket scientist to figure out what they are saying. There are some stations on the radio that bleep everyhting: those were meant for the fundamentalists who favor all things angelic. In the real world, everything's not roses. How else can the artist or DJ get their point across without using a dialect?

hey everyone...i am doing a paper for socail studies on music censorship so if u would like to send your comments my way please email me at n_e_thing4you@hotmail.com.

I believe that censorship on the radio is too strict as it is, at least on the music. Perhaps, many people don't want to hear the radio announcer cussing up a storm. However if there are some cuss words in a song, I believe it is the artist's right to portray the image they choose. Therefore, less censorship in music on the radio.

I think that censoring music is not right because us kids will eventually hear the music anyways on television and xm radio stations. And we will also hear them like on other peoples c.d's

thax for helping me and to all those people that think censorship is bull rock on

any of you who are rockers like me, you know how bad the radio sucks these days. They destroy so many songs by bleeping it out or changing words. makes me just want to rather listen to a cd instead. if the people at clearchannel want something to censor, they should leave the rock music alone, and start listening to rap more. :-) j/k some of it is aight. remember the 1st amendment people!!

i think that censorship is wrong because some songs give hidden messages that are good and we won't be able to get that message because the people who bleep the lyrics out will be too busy to understand it... also, i am doin a a research paper for english,m and i would apreciate any and all of the opinions that you all have on censoring the radio, internet, and television. thanks!

oops! my e-mail for the one above is i_heart_you08@yahoo.com

I hate censorship, people choose what they do. if they get offended then too fucking bad.boo hoo. they dont have to listen. when they say fuck its like f (beeb) ck you know exactly what it is. What the hell ever happened to freedom of speech, and why the fuck are artists being blamed for suicides or drug use or sex. sombody tell me.
email me at tonsoffun8@hotmail.com

Music censorship is bullshit. (HA! Edit that FCC...) Who says that artists and radio stations have to babysit our kids now days...last time I checked, that was the parent's job. The FCC is full of shit, they let some words be said and bleep out others!!! Make up your mind!!!!

i think that music censorship should be enforced more then it is. especially on the radio and tv. I turned my tv to mtv the other day and i saw the most distubering music video ever. Candy shop by 50 cent is by far the worst and most vulger video ive seen in a while. think about it people. our society is shaped by our media and we are letting it get out ot control. do you really want your 6 year old to flip through the channels looking for his favorite barney show, then come across a music video asking him to lick it like a lollipop and not stop til he hits the spot? then when he asks you what that means what are you soppsed to tell him? Music is getting out of control. there are better and less society ubstructing ways to express yourselves. and if you cant find one, then you arnt mature enough to be in the music industruy. and it makes me really mad when people use the first ammendment as a way to restrict censorship. COME ON thats the most manipulative thing i have ever heard. swearing and talking about sex are not essential in self-expression and people really dont need to be listening to that stuff. okay im done. have a nice day

Since when is Candy Shop the most vulgar video on t.v.??? Has this lady not seen Tip Drill, Pussy Poppin, or Disco Inferno. If you are offended by the Candy Shop video then you might as well turn off the t.v. entirely. There are worse things out there, and it is the parent's job to monitor what their children watch on t.v., not musicians and t.v. stations. Lets step up and take some responsibility as parents!!

hey im no parent but you people are just a bunch of bitchers. yall need to pull your head out of your butts and use it as a thinking tool not an enema. we kids don't get the way we are from music we get most of it from home, school, family, friends, etc. if music had anything to do with the way we act then may the good lord strike me dead. music is a way of expression not a tool of war which is what you parents are making it out to be.

i am stupid n i dont kno wat i am talkin about

Hi I am obese and love to lick feet, but anyhoo I would like to tell the world of how I lost weight I weighed 678lbs. but now weigh 677lbs (yay) Anywho I hate the world because I am so fat but I made a pact with satan so me and him can get married and have wonderful children...Good Bye Everyone And F*** Off

well see here im the obese one and i weigh 800 lbs. so italo B. Cruz i think i beat you. I to am going to hell, YAY! much love g dawgs.

Why is it than an artist can't speak what they feel because a bunch of you parents won't take the time to see what the kid is listening to. You just want the FCC to do your job. Why is it that kids can hear people swearing left and right on t.v. but they can't hear it in a song. Editing is also useless. Anyone with half a brain can tell what the artist is saying, edited or not. The swear might not be there but what it is implying is still there.

JoRdAn pwns!

I have done several extensive research papers on music censorship, its constitutionality, the current laws against it, and laws which protect it, but the fact of the matter is that there are bigger problems with society, and if our government has nothing better to do than worry about what radio disc jockies who haven't even graduated high school are playing on our airwaves, instead of national security, the deficit, and other more serious problems, then music censorship is the last of our problems. Censorship is a direct violation of the first amendment, and there are currently no laws against it because of that, all the government, the FCC, and the PMRC has to defend their argument is the establishment clause, and that is not enough. Hitler, Sadaam, and Castro are all tyranical rulers of the most extreme cases of corrupted governments and they all censored what their citizens saw and heard. In a country based on certain civil liberties, and inalieable rights, it is our government's obligation to ensure the freedom of those liberties, not take them away. Music censorship is protected by the first amendment, end of discussion. Freedom of expression, and the artist's right to the pursuit of happiness.

Censorship sucks ass

to all of you that used this topic to swear an think you're cool...way to go, you should be proud... obviously this is a controversial subject, and no one can be truly right or wrong. i believe it isnt right to go to either extreme, as we do need some kind of control on what is going on in music. i too am writing on essay on censorship in french, and i am merely communicating this topic objectively. there are clear reasons for and against it and they should be respected

I REALLY DO NOT THINK THEY SHOULD TAKE THE MUSIC OFF THE SHELF JUST BECAUSE IT HAS A FEW BAD WORDS IN IT IF U GUYS WOULD LIKE TO TALK E MAIL ME A SEX_77_2@HOTMAIL.COM THANK U BYE!

I feel that censorship should not be allowed. It is against the peoples freedom of speech. Yes some things arnt always what you want to here but then dont listen. People try to say things are obsene but define obsencenity. The courts never convict an artist of obsenity because everyones views on it are different. What one person may thing is obscene another may thing it has artistic value. Censorhip is just hiding the truth and peoples feelings so people dont get hurt but thats not like the real world.

my ass smells like cheese

well my ass looks like oatmeal

my urine smells like a hot summers day and my poo smells like a microwaved piece of cheese

I DON'T THINK YOU GUYS HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT....FOR ONE REASON CENSORSHIP IS BASICALLY STIFFING AN ARTIST'S CREATIVITY,BECAUSE IF YOU CAN'T WRITE ABOUT THE TRUTH THEN THERE'S NOTHING LEFT BUT TO WRITE ABOUT LIFE IN CANDYLAND AND THAT CAN ALSO BE MISTAKEN FOR LIFE IN ECSTASYLAND...DON'T CENSOR THE ARTISTS FOR SOCIETY'S MISTAKES..MUSICIANS DON'T FORCE PEOPLE TO KILL,STEAL,RAPE,MURDER OR DO DRUGS,THAT IS A PERSONAL CHOICE.iF YOU ARE A PARENT AND YOU DON'T WANT YOUR CHILDREN YOU SHOULD KEEP YPUR KIDS AWAY FROM EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE YOU KNOW...INCLUDING OYURSELF BECAUSE WITHOUT SEX THAT CHILD WOULD NOT BE THERE!!!MUSIC DOESN'T AFFECT CHILDREN LIKE YOU THINK IT DOES...DON'T BLAME JUVENILE DELIQUENCY ON MUSIC,TELEVISION,OR UPBRINGING,OR HERITAGE..IT HAS NOTHING TO WITH THE FACT THAT SOME CHILDREN TODAY HAVE PHYSCHOTIC MANNERS...THE REASON SOME CHILDREN DON'T GO OUT AND KILL THEIR PEERS IS BECAUSE THEY THE HAVE COMMON SENSE AND MORALS TO KNOW THAT MURDER DOESN'T SOLVE ANYTHING BUT CAUSES MORE PROBLEMS...DON'T CENSOR ARTISTS ITS IN THE FIRST AMMENDMENT "FREEDOM OF SPEECH"

i think censorship is wrong it is our right to speak our minds. And if you are worried about our kids hearing this just remember they are going to hear this eventually so you just have to remind them that not all views are right in the music. I mean just listen to some rap like ice t's cop killer his views are not right but it was his opinion. Just because someone says something doesnt mean its right. So let people speak their minds it can not hurt only help. If you dont want the bad music on the radio then how about some blocks like on tv allowing you to only get the clean stations giving you control over what can be heard. But still allow stations with bad words and to play their music. you dont always have to listen to what others say so let the people speak see if people choose to listen.

~~The Truth~~

Well, I am a kid myself, and I want to start off by saying that you guys get so worked up over a simple question of censorship! No one should get hostile, because it is every ones opinion. I am 14 (girl) and I want to say that I am on BOTH sides. Censorship is neither right OR wrong!It is right because so many artists today are writing songs on sex, drugs, girls, and violence and that is making a huge influence on kids today. Basically, how the media is, is how we shape society. If you have a bunch of hoods in videos disrespecting woman, then THATS how our future children will be. You all are saying: Well turn off the radio, don't buy the cd, don't lisen to it. But either way around, these kids are going to listen to it, no matter what you do. It is also wrong because if the artist wants to shape and mold his songs about ses, drugs, girls, and violence; then he may do so. It is HIS song.

From a 14 year old!

u guys r so fuckin stupid who gives a fuck. censorship is so damn gay and i think all the people who censor music or are for it can just fuck off and die u stupid bitches if an artists wants to say somethin let em its the first amendment so all u motherfuckers can just fuck off and die....censor that FCC....BITCHES

yo u guys are just a bunch of bitches fuck the fcc and everyone in it all u guys do is fuck up songs and all the hard work an artist puts into it. so fuck u guys and suck a big dick...censor that FCC

Censorship has nothing to do with the artist's ability to create music, what it deals with is access to their creation. I am not for censorship in the sense of limiting access for adult consumers, but I disagree with the broadcast of even some of the radio-friendly versions of adult material. The purpose of an adult content/explicit lyrics disclaimer is to inform purchasers and parents of what is contained in the music. This allows the consumer to make a choice to buy or by-pass, without this option radio consumers are forced to tolerate the gross content in many of songs today or seek an alternative station. Alternatives are great choices, but what happens when the station you choose is overpowered by the other? Your choice has been taken away. For this reason radio broadcasters should restrict transmission. I encourage the artist to challenge themselves to create music that expresses their truth through language that is enlightening, not vulgar. I feel they should be required to reach a standard to be on the radio. If they cannot create a song that does not deal with adult content, they should not be on the radio. If adult content is all these artist know, then they should spend more money on advertising to sell their records.

i think censorship should not be allowed because if it was serious like that than no one would be able to write music like that. and we would not have this problem. so if they really want people to sto writing music like that. plane and simple

i didnt read any of the prior comments so forgive me if my point has been made. I think that if lyrics need to be censored or the song left off the air at all, then obviously the general population has come to be so dull minded as to be so easily influenced by the simple-minded views and opinions of the rappers (primarily) or rockers who's primary goal is to get you to buy their records.

This is shit you house wives think this is life controling your childs life but check there history on htere comp drug test them see what they really know music wil not effect ur natural instincs read lord of the flies they had known of these things yet they resorted back to violence i think u need your kids to learn there is only so much u can protect ur child you women are stupid get jobs read a book leave us alone i buy my cds from the uk because u allow the government the so called free nation CONTROL what i can do see or hear this is shit u guys really need lives get them read a book on philosify and ull get it u work ur whole life for nothing will it really matter is a person says shit fuck or bitch no i think not what makes a word bad anyways

i think this is total bullshit...if you censor all music then know one will be making any money in the music buisness...and you parents that are so against this..well your stupid you will just make your kids grow to hate you..because you dont give them any lee way..they can listen to what they want..you cant stop them anyways..maybe at home..but when they leave the house ..they will buy the cds and they will listen to them...what are you going to do about that?..not let them go anywhere...we will see how well that goes...good bye..and re think this whole censorship thing..mkay later groupie!
<3Raven Ann~

lol, look at sicktwistedfreak's post. you should know should we censor music or not. all the f words really reveal a lot of you.

i think that a rapper or singer should be able to say whatever he wants to as long as you are warned like the label. You are the one doing the purshasing so listen to music and say whats hood

I strongly disagree with music censorship. There is no need to cover up,bleep out, or edit an artist's work. The government should have no control over what we listen to. An artist is trying to form a message from their music to the public. Yes, I agree to the fact that the music may use certain words, but remember that they are only talking about what societal issues is going on. Sex,drugs,alcohol and drug abuse are factors of our society. Everyone, no matter the age, needs to here what is going on in the world. The government needs to look at it this way: Should musician's have to hide what's going on in the the world just so it may seem like it is a perfect world. NO!! We need to hear so that if it may seem wrong then we will be aware of this situation and we won't do it.IT WAS OUR FOUNDING FATHERS THAT MADE THE BILL OF RIGHTS! OUR RIGHTS THAT WE HAVE TO EXERCISE, ONE OF THEM BEING FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION! Before anyone thinks to censor music, visit the places that the musician's are talking about. People are poor, no food, no proper clothing, and drugs. People's lives are really surrounded by those things. IF THE GOVERNMENT WANTS THE MUSIC TO STOP TALKING ABOUT THESE THINGS IN OUR SOCIETY THEN ONE OF TWO THINGS CAN BE ARRANGED:
- THEY HELP THE POOR NEIGHBORHOODS INSTEAD OF INVESTING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN THE DAMN NASA PROGRAM
- THEY CAN LISTEN TO THE MUSIC AND SHUT THE HELL UP!

hahah hey why dont they bleep out ass when someone says ass-hole and they bleep out the "HOLE"... fuckers... hahahahahah i mean seriously how stupid can you be? if your gonna bleep out a word(which you shiteaters dont even do a good job of doing might i add)dont bleep out the hole ... forgetaboutit... that is so dumb i cant wait to finish writing my 7 page paper about it... hahahah Fuckers...

I agree that censorship needs to regulate music. It has nothing to do with freedom of speech or the 1st Amendment. Most high school kids try to be like 2pac or Mac Dre. I work for a hip hop radio station and understand that everything we say or mention on the air is very influential to kids. Believe me, we get a good response if we mention "Don't forget to wear your daisy dukes at the club." Anyone who uses the "F" word is obviously not smart enough use a better word. Look at Kelly Clarkson, she is so popular and none of her song atleast I know about have any cussing. Look at 2pac and mac dre, their fans must love them for cussing so much and that's probably why their dead. HA HA!

I think that censored music is a good thing but also a bad think I am 17 years old an i have a 3 month old boy and if it came down to it i would not like him to listen to that kind of music even though i do. but it is also a bad thing because i would like to listen to music without hearing bleep, bleep, bleep.

Ok, Censorship is, wrong, I wont cuss so all you hypocritical parents can see that there are more to teens that dumbness... Parents you are hypocritical because your parents didnt want you to listen to ACDC,Jhonny Cash,Van Halen, and others...Its the same you parents dont care enough to spend sum times trying to figure out what music your children listen to and y... so once you do that you might understand you kid a little more and they might actually want to see you. Peace

i dont think music should be censored.. most artists write songs based on what they have been through... if you havent noticed everyday isnt perfect and beautiful.. if everyday was like that every song will be the same.. and its not like we dont hear these words there saying everyday and its not like we dont hear people talking about sex,drugs, and death everyday.

censorship on the radio now is fine but they should have more of it on t.v.

"CENSORSHIP IS BASED ON FEAR"
"CENSORSHIP IS A BRUTE BLIND REACTION TO A BRUTE BLIND RECOGNITION THAT INFORMATION IS NOT NEUTRAL"

LIMITING OUR DREAMS IS THE CRIME!

FREEMUSE

i think that censorship in music is totally against our rights as american citizens!! itseems that the people who want to censor music are the same people who want to send troops over-seas to PROTECT OUR FREEDOMS? what freedoms are we so called "protecting" if in our own county we have to listen to chooped up versions of songs? all the things that artists sing about in their songs has either happened to them or they have experienced in their life somehow... this is real life and we can't all live and hide ourselves away in little white picket houses in the suberbs with 2 kids and a golden retriver.

Censorship is wrong becuase it goes against the first amendment. duh you idiots.

i think censorship is gay gay GAY GAY AND GAY. Whoever stands for censorship, well they could suck someone dick and drick their cum

Music needs to be censored. I like rap and i do listen to the uncensored versions but the uncensored versions should not be allowed to young children. It kind of sounds dumb but there needs to be like a certain age you have to be to buy certain c.ds because like okay i will walk around singin raunchy songs and i dont think im wrong for it because im in highschool but wen a little 5 or 6 year old is singing 'im in love with a stripper' around me, i find something wrong with that. Not censoring music and letting kids listen to this kind of music at a young age isnt good for our future because the media is the childrens influence these days and if all they hear is things like drugs and sex and killing, what do you think they are going to do with those ideas? Im not saying every radio station needs to stop playing rap, r&b, hip hop, & rock but they do need to watch what they play and what they say. They do need to bleep out cuss words and i dont think they should be playing the real profane songs at all otherwise the entire song will be bleeped out so whats the point in playing it at all?

I am writing an arguementative paper for English class and I need info on Music Censorship. I personally think that music censorship infringes on a musician's rights to express themselves, and is in violation of the first amendment. But I need to find information to support my arguement. If any one knows where I can find that info could you please e-mail me and tell me? My e-mail is dan_is_da_bomb115@msn.com Rock on all the songwriters who don't give a shit, keep on writing that awesome music!!

Okay so like i am also doing a paper on censorship and i found many many totally shocking things like you couldnt play protest music without being fined. so what is next we get fined for free speach? please tell me i cant speak my mind nor listen to what i want this is CRAP!!!

it seems to be as simple as this, censored music infringes upon the right of any individual to say (sing) what is on their mind. it does not infringe upon another rights to hear they have a choice not to listen. its about freedom,we have come along way baby do we go back and censor music and lose the freedom we have gained. the music artist has freedom to express. the listener has freedom to turn the music off. the disk jockey has the freedom to choose to play it or not and to express what they feel.
