Is it really market MANIPULATION or is market simply supplying what we demand, in other words, we continue to stay conditioned and market is forced to give us what we demand?

For instance the word Gay was a taboo and a gay person can still be persecuted in some countries even in this 21st century - in these markets you will not find magazines or other mediums selling stuff but those who came out of SOCIAL EXPECTATIONS have forced market to start giving them what they need in western countries.

I am not saying we are not manipulated and conditioned but in part our own complacency and hipocrisy plays a big role.

What do you think?!
