Uh....excuse me here, but..what exactly are you implying?
I'd like to know what they are implying, too. I have a daughter and I agree with Go Fish. Some of the area dance companies
do feature children performing highly sexualized dances that closely resemble what the women do in the strip clubs. Anyone who takes issue with someone speaking out against it must think it is ok. Do you
immolate99 think it is ok for 8 and 9 year old little girls to perform simulated sex acts at a dance recital? I don't. I don't think Go Fish does, either and that is what he stated in his earlier post.
If a parent wants to dress their little girl up like hookers, let them wear skirts that show their panties, and otherwise make them into something that a grown man will lust after - have at it. Saying "I've seen worse" does not make it right. What many of us are stating is that it is gross and indecent to many people, me included. My daughter is 13 and I try to instill in her that her body is
her body and is not something to use for attention and to titillate random boys / men. As to the "find out where the pervs are and avoid them" statement - that is not possible. The pervs are everywhere. They are at friend's homes, they are your neighbor's cousins, they are at the gas station, they are at McDonald's, they are at the mall. Teach your children to dress like they value themselves and their bodies and this isn't an issue.
