Slutty Girls are Getting Younger

I could write a whole post on this, being that I am a middle school teacher, but LZ Granderson's column for CNN.com sums up everything I would want to say (and better). It's a really good read.

"Parents, Don't Dress Your Girls Like Tramps"

I cannot believe that Abercrombie & Fitch would market a push-up bra to 7 year-olds (excuse me, 12 year-olds). That's just awful. But like Granderson said, they wouldn't market it if someone wasn't buying it...eek.

What?! I have NO problem with this whatsoever. What is so wrong with allowing girls to express themselves? It is the responsibility of companies such as A&F to provide consumers with options. I think it was very respectable of them to change their mind and market the bra to 12 year olds instead of 7 year olds. If people like LZ don't want to see it, they should look the other way.
