Patrice A. Oppliger (born 26 August 1963), [1] is the assistant professor of communication at Boston University College of Communication. [2]
Oppliger has written extensively about the impact of popular culture on student's high school years, and has been consulted by the media on the subject. Interviewed by CNN about cyberbullying, Oppliger discussed the film " Mean Girls", which is based on the book " Queen Bees and Wannabes" by Rosalind Wiseman. Oppliger accused the film of "glamorizing bad behavior", she went on to say that, "The book is a helpful guide to relationships between girls; the movie, on the other hand, showed the positive side of being a mean girl." [3]
WFXT Fox25 News also interviewed Oppliger about Rockport High School's decision to ban female students from wearing yoga pants. She said that the school ought to have judged the students on a "case-by-case" basis instead. [4]
Patrice Oppliger gained her degree from the University of Nebraska at Kearney, her master's from the University of Maine, and her doctorate University of Alabama. [2]
Oppliger doesn't believe the photos will spark a rash of nude or semi-nude photography among Cyrus's `tween' and teen fan base, but only because many of those fans are taking those pictures already.
Since men are marrying later, they tend to like hobbies and organizations that either include women or have the potential to lead them to women.
I feel like it used to be if one of our friends fell down, we'd wait to see if they were OK before we laughed. I feel like we just laugh now.

I feel like they rush to judgment, they make this blanket statement about, "No yoga pants", without educating the students about exactly why, and what does it mean for their display of sexuality in school.
