The over sexualisation of children

[boobaa]

Depending on how bad it looked, I'd think there's a difference when it comes to doing a play or dance. When I was in ballet and we had to do the big shows, we had to wear make up, like tons of it. Maybe its just for us to look like little barbie dolls, but I wouldnt go so far as to making us look bad cuz even if our leotard was going up our ass we were scolded to fix it immediately lol.

When did you have ballet?

When did you have ballet?

Ha...shit I was there from like 5 to about 7 or 8. I know make up can look bad on a child, but it is worn for performance, not to go out on the street. We didnt look like whores or anything of that sort, it was just for the performance.

No Dopple don't be ignorant. Makeup isn't JUST makeup.

Makeup mimics the reaction in the body to arousal..ie flushed cheeks, red lips. When you put this on a small child it is giving out incorrect signals.

Makeup is just ****ing makeup. What about girls who bud faster? What about girls who look sexy without makeup?

Attraction isn't applied so easily as makeup is. Any guys remember their primary school crushes? When I was back in primary school, girls certainly did not wear makeup. But us guys were attracted to them.

If you really want to sway guys the other way, just make your daughters wear their makeup differently.

Yeah makeup is just makeup..that's why the performers of Cirque du soleil could easily pose for Playboy.

Makeup just has a certain social connotation, LW, like it or not.

Makeup on children 'sexualizes' them. I didn't decide that, society did.

Lol, can I start calling you guys the makeup Nazis? Jesus H. Christ....

Women don't hide their appearance... they enhance it. The photo you posted just reinforces that. J-Lo is beautiful with and without makeup. One look is fine for a day at the beach, the other for night.

Yea...ummm.....If I am spending the night with her I would like the beach look please.
