some kind nerve having been struck for you to say this.

I don't really care what young girls, or boys for that matter, wear. But a couple observations. The girls, all the way to the 12 anad 13 year olds, wear tight tops and tight pants and are so overweight that rolls of fat spill out. I guess that is the new attractive. Just like the young men wearing their pants below the cracks of their asses. That looks stupid too, and sometimes to the point of seeing shit stains on their underwear. The other observation is the messages on the clothes is very suggestive. If mothers have to live vicariously through their daughters, then so be it. I personally find it offensive. I find it offensive to see older girls and young ladies wearing the same type of clothing. Some can wear it well, most can not.
