[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 358893, member: 1233"] Has anyone else seen this? I saw it on the news and it has apparently gotten 2 million hits on YouTube. These are very talented little girls dressed very provocatively dancing to the Beyonce song "Single Ladies". I am quite disturbed by this. The dance is VERY sexual in nature, as are the costumes. Why is this not considered child porn? I have a personal problem with many things that sexualize little girls. These girls are wearing dance costumes that are designed to look like fancy lingerie. in my opinion this goes way beyond the boundaries of acceptable. My child would be pulled out of a program that had outfits like these. Or had moves like these. If I had not been able to see the performance before it was made public I would pull her off the stage. Scene be dipped. If this were little boys dressed in g-strings making these very sexual moves it would be considered obscene. It would not be "dance" or "art" or performance. Comparisons have been made between Beyonce dancing this way and the little girls dancing this way. Beyonce was an adult in full control of herself, her fortune and her career. She CHOSE to do this. For her it was a performance. More sexual than I really like to have on screen in my home, but she IS an adult. these girls are so little. It sets them out as targets, more so than many other dance/cheer routines do. The girls do NOT understand the meaning of the movements. Not really, I hope and pray! What were the parents of the girls thinking??? Would you want your 7yo daughter to be doing those moves in that outfit in public?? What happened to encouraging ladylike behavior and some modesty in kids? Gentlemanly behavior in boys? I remember the dance routines my childhood bff did. The costumes, routines, etc... They were sparkly and feminine and designed so the girls looked like little girl versions of showgirls (one year). Even so they were not made so the girls looked sexual. Just feminine. Ladylike behavior was encouraged - in those words. I guess I am woefully out of step with society. cause no way in Hades will my daughter go out in public like that before she is an adult paying her way. Heck, even Jess thinks this should be pulled because it is too much like kiddie porn. What do y'all think? [/QUOTE]
