Sign Of The Times

View:

The Internet Age has transformed the way we do most things day-to-day – revolutionising even our long-established social mores ... like getting married. And so, the advent of the . Many a bride and groom are turning away from their scissors, ribbons, and glue when it comes to communicating important details between loved ones towards the more tech-savvy alternative.

There are several advantages to opting for this avant-garde approach to documenting life's special moments. Let me direct you to an up-and-coming builder called, MomentVille.com to exemplify my points.

1)Decrease costs: This refers not only to monetary costs but also your valuable personal time and effort costs. For starters, using the electronic medium significantly reduces a couple's stationary and postage bills. With the average cost of weddings increasing each year, this option is a lot more budget-friendly without compromising the end result. Users of the MomentVille website builder can set up their personal wedding website such that guests can RSVP, request songs for the reception playlist, vote on the honeymoon location, share stories about the Bride and Groom, and leave messages in a virtual Guestbook - all online. Communication can flow between the couple and their guests effortlessly without the need for costly return envelopes or standing in line for stamps.

2)MomentVille.com is Green: Be kind to the Earth and reduce your 'ecological footprint'! Any energy emissions produced by MomentVille's host servers are off-set with carbon credits thanks to the help of TickGreen.com.

3)An efficient and highly effective way to interact with guests - no matter their location: Back in the 'B.C' years (i.e. Before Computers), communication between guests (especially those living far away) and the organising parties occurred via snail mail and the telephone. By using a personal wedding website it becomes far more efficient and much less expensive to interact and share information with guests in the online environment. Couples can provide regular updates, refer guests to other useful websites (e.g. the venue for the reception) by adding hyperlinks, and illustrate their information with photos and customised maps.

4)An electronic preservation of your entire wedding experience: A wedding website becomes a brilliant medium for chronicling a couple's entire wedding experience - from the moment the engagement is on to well after the last song plays at the reception. It is not only a mechanism to communicate and interact with guests, but it is also a way for the couple to record their memories of the planning process, their special lead-up events (such as Bridal Showers, and the Rehearsal Dinner), and include messages from their loved ones and well-wishers. MomentVille users can upload their photos into photo galleries, add slideshows using their wedding soundtrack, and even stream wedding videos.

5)The capabilities of a wedding website far surpass what you can do with traditional scrapbooks. MomentVille allows website creators to integrate sound clips, videos, and slide shows. You can now have all the various forms of capturing memories accessible from the same place: your own wedding website.

Wedding websites are quickly become a necessity for brides and grooms who are 'in-the-know', for all the reasons listed above and many more. Like many other things, the internet has made sharing and remembering specials events like your wedding easier and more enjoyable.

Sign Of The Times

Indeed, gender roles of both men and women have shifted greatly over time. For example, some traits that are considered feminine today such as wearing makeup and jewellery, were once part of the man's domain, but cultural shifts and the development of femininity as a concept contributed towards a change in what was deemed to be 'acceptable' traits in men.

And the most significant shift in gender roles in recent years has been the emergence of the image-conscious male, where it's now deemed socially acceptable for a man to take pride in his personal appearance and spend time grooming themselves.

This change is reflected in the many male-orientated cosmetics that are now available, with role models such as David Beckham contributing significantly towards this cultural shift, appearing in countless cosmetic commercials and changing his image frequently.

Although grooming products for men is nothing new, it's the commercialisation of them, the acknowledgement that it's now 'okay' for a man to care about his appearance that has changed. Indeed, entire are now available, and not just the economical 'shower-gel and comb' sets that were once a common stocking-filler at Christmas, but professional grooming kits that are tailored towards the 21st century male.

Where once it was perhaps common to hear "I'm running late, I'm still doing my hair" from a mother, sister or girlfriend, this is now a common sound-bite from the male domain too. Professional hair 'clipper' sets are now commonplace, enabling a man to maintain a consistent hairstyle and also avoid having to pay exorbitant hairdresser charges.

There are also countless other personal care products available that, maybe 20 or 30 years ago, would be regarded as being 'female' items, such as skin exfoliators, anti-wrinkle cream and even eyebrow-pluckers. Many argue that this shift in gender roles is a good thing, as it means men are becoming more in touch with their feminine side and it reflects a move towards a more equal society. And it's difficult to argue with this, as it's evident that women now have more opportunities than ever before, working in environments that were once dominated entirely by men. And whilst some inequalities still prevail, it is certainly a move in the right direction.

The 21st century man is a different person from the man of only a few generations ago. It seems that the modern male is more in touch with his feminine side, and this is evident through the countless grooming products that are now aimed specifically at men. This can only be a good thing, as it narrows the gender gap and perhaps indicates a move towards a more equal society.
