If they don't give a hoot about people, then maybe they should turn their attention to animals and start scandalising how they behave. ;-)
I'm also worried about the sexualising of children in our culture. WHO magazine did a feature about this time last year on an 8 year old girl who is the daughter of a Brisbane nightclub owner and modelling agent. She was fully made up with enough makeup to sink the Titanic, wearing a chiffon jacket and a corset with a gold necklace. Far from looking beautiful, she looked worse than a clown. I'm genuinely sorry for this girl. She is at an age where she is not mentally or emotionally ready for the pressures of the adult world, nor ready for a 'serious' boyfriend. It wouldn't surprise me if she grows up to rebel against her father and develops a liking for baggy pants, sandals and sloppy Joes when she becomes a teenager.
Have you ever heard of the "Life. Be In It." campaign? It was a move for Aussies to switch off the TV and the magazines and get out there in the community and get themselves into shape.
The biggest challenge for women is body acceptance and to accept their own sexuality without the need of approval from men. Very few women reach that peak in their lives, and I have tremendous respect for those that do.
Britney Spears doesn't really convey anything for me, although some of her songs are alright.
Even fashion media moguls have said to girls who are aspiring to become models, if you are naturally a size 14-16 don't dream of trying to emulate Jodie Kidd or Kate Moss. I've never let the fashion media dictate to me what to wear. After reading about where ties originated from, I will never wear one ever again and I think that no decent Christian man (or woman) should either.
