I’m probably being a prude but…

…what is the deal with teenage girls running around basically naked these days?

Last week, I was driving down the road near a secondary school at letting out time and I must have seen about 5 girls’ actual bum cheeks as they were leaving school. Like, we all rolled our skirts up fairly short at school, but this was actually full knickers and bums on display… one girl was wearing a thong so it was just her whole bum on show.

Then, I was on the beach today (we live near the sea) with my two primary school aged sons and there were a group of maybe 13-14 year old girls, they were very young, more than half of whom were in thong bikinis. They spent most of the time on the beach doing a photoshoot, predominantly photos of them from behind looking out to sea, presumably for social media?!

I know teenagers have always been teenagers, but I’m pretty sure underage girls weren’t wearing thong bikinis on the beach when I was that age 😳

I could see other families on the beach felt uncomfortable with it too.

Do their parents know? Is this just how teenagers dress these days?

If you do then avert your gaze and do not touch. Breasts exist. They are not for you to fawn over or grope. Just because someone has them doesn't mean they are there to be drooled over and groped.

Should women not breast feed then because having breasts in public is encouraging sexual assault?

Agree. Just today there was a post on my local FB group where a man was caught filming/upskirting teens standing behind them on the escalators in the local shopping centre. I'm pretty much wear what you want but these girls have no idea it's happened to them and are blissfully unaware of how predators work.

Males have permanent nipples. Or am I missing something and they disappear and reappear from time to time?

Male nipples are for a sexual purpose. You can deny it u ti, you're blue in the face.

Surely its up to us what our breasts are for? and as they are an erogenous zone, they are also for sexual pleasure

Ahh as expected, totally different. Do women sit around sexualing the arse crack of a builder? Is it the same as a child having her full arse on display? Is the builder doing it with the intention of displaying himself to women for validation?

It's really very creepy how many people are defending the sexualisation of children.Not only that, but why are you referring to thighs, when were talking about tiny skirts and thongs? Trying to minimise for some reason?

Everyone male or female decide how their nipples are to be used. Not someone else and as male nipples are an erogenous zone, they are also for sexual pleasure and yet males walk with them out all the time.

Builders bum never made it to page 3 of the sun

Female breasts are more sensitive than their male counterparts

I’m asking you why is it okay for a boy to walk around with no top on but not okay for a girl. I bet you have a problem women topless sunbathing too

It's not, its equally unacceptable but we are talking about young girls. This is a classic case of "whataboutery".

You never saw teen magazines with male models and their arses out? Bliss, J17 , More etc all had them.

No one is defending it but plenty of women like men’s arses. Some night even like the crack

Oh please, show me where I've said girls should be blamed? I haven't, so keep reaching. I was abused as a very young child myself, which is why it matters to me and why I find your stance that its ok for children to wear thomgs and other sexulised outfs, created for the adult males gaze, incredibly creep.

Well no I was talking about boys. People will discuss all sorts on a thread that’s the whole point. A rather weak argument to try and control your narrative.

Are you both male and female to know this?

I presume sensitivity is personal to the individual and for some males it will be more sensitive than others and for some females it will be more sensitive than others. So not able to compare really. They are both sensitive and both used during sex.

So you were abused, which I’m sorry about but were you wearing thongs and sexualised outfits?

Thats not builders bum

So if you Google it, do you get lots of sexulised pictures of builders with their crack on display in the same way the sexualised school girl outfits come up when you google school girl uniforms?

Not as much, my DH hates it.

I was a toddler, I don't know what I was wearing but it's irrelevant because I don't blame the child, ever. I blame adult men for sexualising children and society pretending it's harmless.

Show me where I've said that.

My partner can jizz if I touch his. As I stated it is personal in regards to sensitivity so what is right for your H is not right for all. Same as for women. Some women will not like it.

The reality is that if these underage girls dress like this, grown men will get a sexual thrill from it. That's the unfortunately very flawed world we live in. It's wrong, they shouldn't, but that's how it is.
