Reply #9: exactly. what IS the message?

why do they want our children to emulate "hookers" at such an early age? what is really going on here?
remember the furor over Joanbenet Ramsey and the contests she was in? Wasn't the country outraged by that?
What has happened in between? Oh yeah, Bush became president, but beyond that?

what is the deal? Why aren't more parents objecting?

edited: I did have "sluts" instead of "hookers", but I hate that term, even though its appropriate here, just in general.
