rant: 'provocative' children's fashion

ilovethebooti posted text of an article for parents to sparkly_girls all about how to keep girls from dressing sexy (and, naturally, pinning that manner of dressing on britney).

ok, on the one hand: it sucks that culture objectifies women. i'm not saying all objectification is bad, cause it can be fun and sexy if done, and taken, in the proper light manner. objectification that leads to gender divides, sexism, etc, though--obviously bad. no one's arguing. and also, yes, that kind of dressing is associated with that.

BUT.

shit like this pisses me off SO BAD. you know, why does saying 'i'm sexy' or 'i like sex' automatically say 'i'm shallow and air-headed please please like me liek omg heehee' to these people? why is it that the parents advocating the laura ashley school, the people who want to rip down women who revel in and celebrate their sexuality, spread this poisonous idea that not only is sexual freedom to be looked down upon, along with sexual thoughts, sensuality and probably sex itself, but ALSO that the PEOPLE who disagree with them on these points--ie embrace sexuality blahblah etc--are somehow misguided, vulgar, inferior, crude, crass, immature, wicked, or otherwise loathesome?

IT'S JUST SEX.

the idea of sex is not dirty. it is not nasty. it is not inferior. it is not inherently shallow. SEX IS NICE. and taboos, and the lure of the forbidden, and the two-faced straight-lacing strictures of our society, have a whole hell of a lot to answer for.

is 'it's just sex' the proper argument re: twelve-year-olds? no. is childish fashion in imitation of sensual adult fashion, or even the sight of bare childish skin, the same thing as children participating in orgies? again, no.

since we're on the subject of taboos, obviously britney wearing a cropped t-shirt and a pair of skintight jeans is going to be sexually suggestive, because what these things reveal are a woman's voluptuous body. a child's two-piece swimsuit or pair of leggings are exactly as revealing and are not sexually suggestive because the mind of the ordinary human does not associate a baby's midriff, or the shape of a baby's body, with sex.

the problem here is not the child; the problem is not the child being misled by an evil, mindless pop culture neon-sign one-stop easy-off drink-drugs-sex-spend-money heathen god. the problem is another aspect of culture altogether, the aspect that gasps if a mother breastfeeds in public, or two-year-old neighbor children of differing genders take a bath together.

bush joke

posted to sos_usa by jesuscooks:

A lobbyist, on his way home from work in Washington, D.C., came to a dead halt in traffic and thought to himself, "Wow, this seems worse than usual." He notices a police officer walking between the lines of stopped cars, so he rolls down his window and asks, "Officer,what's the hold up?"

The officer replies, "The President is depressed, so he stopped his motorcade and is threatening to douse himself in gasoline and set himself on fire. He says no one believes his stories about why we went to war in Iraq, or the connection between Saddam and al-Qaeda, or that his tax cuts will help anyone except his wealthy friends; the press called him on the lie about Iraq trying to buy uranium from Nigeria, and now Campbell Brown (NBC White House reporter) is threatening to sue him for the sexual innuendo he made to her at his recent press conference. So we're taking up a collection for him."

The lobbyist asks, "How much have you got so far?"

The officer replies "About 14 1/2 gallons, but a lot of folks are still siphoning."
