I absolutely believe that young girls should not be wearing sexy clothing. I do not think that it should be marketed to young girls, or even created for them. Let kids be kids.

THAT BEING SAID, I think it's really fucked up that a grown ass man feels okay calling someone he assumes to be 8 years old trampy. WTF. A child dressing provocatively is still a child, douchebag.

At that age, little girls don't even know what it means to be slutty. It's safe to assume that we all played dress up in our mom's makeup and clomped around the house in her high heels. Is that slutty? Not at all.

Articles like this frustrate me.
