"How can you say no and still keep your friends?" A discussion group of earnest, clean-cut teens talk directly to the camera as they (and we) flash back to situations where they had to say no: Drinking beer after football practice, smoking cigarettes at a pajama party, and the ever-popular "petting." Pretty standard Coronet fair, although interesting stage presentation twist.

  • Guy in the beginning: "Can Geico really save you 15 percent or more on car insurance? Are the kids behind this curtain discussing how to say no and still keep their friends?"

  • Jesus. So to avoid sexual assault I should avoid turning men on or getting alone with them? I should be ready to ask them about sports or pretend I'm hungry?

    No.

    I should be able to just say no and have it mean no. Just like that. No questions, no pushing, no angsty facial expressions. And with any man I'm interested in dating, "no" is enough.

    With opinions like this from only 60 years ago, it's no wonder we as a society still struggle with victim-blaming even today!

  • Moral maturity? Then they suggest bringing up the latest gossip and start trashing someone? How nice.

  • My mother-in-law doesn't understand the meaning of "no." When you spell things out she gets all offended. She doesn't know her boundaries and hands out guilt trips right and left.

  • you know, these old videos were so much more detailed, specific, and caring...

    I remember the "just say no to drugs" videos I saw in school showed more about the effects of drugs and those things, but barely showed any tactful moves for difficult pinches

  • It's the "and so on"s that are troublesome...

  • I love that big mirror in the background it really brings others into the conversation/construction.

  • they all fuck eachother off camera!

  • Wwwell....

  • N-N-N-...damn I can't say it

  • Swell video. Makes me want to break out the coke, and do a few lines.
