Thread Name: BS: The Sexualisation of our Children
Subject: RE: BS: The Sexualisation of our Children
Thanks, Tam. I've called it that for years, because..that's what it is, basically. It's been worrying the heck out of me for many, many years now...and I've phoned up various Corporate names, trying to get them to open their eyes. Now, it seems, they may start to have no choice in the matter, as hopefully, public opinion finally begins to turn against them for what they have helped create.

Ultimately though, it is in the hands of parents, but I realise that it is now harder and harder to protect your children in a world that is seemingly awash with the desire to sexualise them.

Liberalism is all very well, but the great danger of it is that it also opens the doors for those with hideous agendas, because they find themselves in this free and open society, where nothing is frowned upon or judged...and they take advantage of that, bigtime!

I guess that's why society always used to have the unwritten rules of what was, and was not, acceptable...but those have been blown away now and you are regarded as prudish and odd if you dare to speak out against the flow.

I'm Proud to be Prudish, when it comes to the protection of our children's childhoods.
