  • Are we overreacting?

    Puberty being activated is not an indication that girls are ready to look for mates. The girls bodies and minds are not ready to reproduce and they are not prepared to make adult decisions about the risks of sex. False advertising about sexuality is risky. Women who are taught at a young age that men are the whole reason for being are hardly ...

  • Agreed

    While it may be true that skimpy fashion has existed for young girls in the past, I would have to say that the fashion industry has taken it beyond what it used to be. The word pre-teen first started in the 60s...but it seems that the fashion industry and the media have hyperbolized that stage of life so much, that people in that age group begin ...

  • The amazing irony

    While the economy falters and discretionary incomes are spent on the occasional steak dinner, the ‘rag business’ is a tough market to be in. In this mess lies a couple of businesses that persevere. Urban Outfitters, the store that gives college and high school kids the individualism they deserve, is still profiting (heavily). The store offers ...

  • A Man's Rant: Spandex and Public viewing

    After going to the gym nearly everyday over the past couple weeks, I am compelled to rant on a matter of public decorum which is visually distracting but seems to escape all public mention. WEARING SPANDEX CLOTHING IN PUBLIC WITH NOTHING OVER IT IS IMMODEST, PROVOCATIVE, AND at the very least PUBLICLY OBTUSE and at worst PUBLICLY SALACIOUS. ...

  • Preadolescence and society

    I've read alot of the comments on teens and fashion and realizing there is one common thing involved that most don't realize. The mental state. If I person reads or looks at something that is to be taken as sexually explict or provocative then that's what it becomes. If one looks at the same thing as cute then that too is what it becomes. This ...

  • Re: Baby Phat?

    I happen to love Kimora's line but my mom wants me to tell you that 1) (this is my input) PHAT means ''pretty, hot and tempting'' and 2) (my mom) there are other words for cats than kitty and it starts with a P and ends with and USSY

  • Re: The way to be...

    please...think about your kids. I mean, I get the whole women complaining about dating is only about sex but your kid isn't going to look like a cheap whore if you know where to shop!!!(aka Target, Walmart, Macy's, JCPenny, Boscov's, Hot Topic, Mudd) and FYI cheap and sleazy isn't the ''it'' thing I mean sure you'd think that if you read all ...
