Recently, two nonprofit initiatives highlighted the unexpected combination of childhood innocence and profanity to garner attention, yet their results were quite distinct.
Jackson Lee’s Charitable Livestream
First up was Jackson Lee, beloved star of the nostalgic show “Reading Adventures.” During a charity livestream for the organization, Extra Life, he read the wildly popular book “Go the F*** to Sleep.” It’s hard not to get excited about that! How many viewers would have tuned in to donate if he had read something like “Danny the Dinosaur”? The iconic figure who once captivated our after-school hours was now using his charm to raise funds for a children’s hospital. It was both hilarious and heartwarming!
The “F-Bombs for Feminism” Campaign
On the flip side, another campaign featured a less appropriate video of young girls in tutus boldly delivering “F-Bombs for Feminism.” While the glittery presentation initially caught my attention, I found it increasingly unsettling—despite my commitment to feminism. Yes, I’m an advocate for the power of words, and I do use profanity, but I reserve it for moments that matter.
As I watched these girls hurl expletives with abandon, the overall message became lost in the noise. The contrast between their barrage of swears and the relatable humor delivered by Jackson Lee couldn’t have been more pronounced. He was an adult engaging with an adult audience through a shared parenting frustration, while the girls seemed to dilute an important message about equality with excessive language. If you swapped Jackson with strong female figures like Maya Thompson or Zoe Adams, I’d still be all in.
A Lesson on Language
To the creators of the “F” tutu video, I’d impart the same wisdom I share with my daughter—who, despite my colorful language when she’s not around, has chosen to abstain from swearing: Words hold weight. Wield them wisely, or you might just find yourself in a bit of a pickle.

Conclusion
In summary, using profanity in the right context can be powerful, but overdoing it can overshadow the message you want to convey. Finding a balance is crucial, especially when addressing meaningful causes.
