Thank you guys so very much for responding to my post! Thank you, too, for posting the link to the stripper pole! I had just read an article this weekend about the stripper pole for little girls in the newest issue of Glamour magazine (by the way, you can always tell when I've read an issue of Glamour. I go all "I am woman hear me roar" for about 3 days straight!) However, my feelings on this subject have always been the same. Why rush into the world of adulthood? Enjoy being a child!
A few years ago, my stepmom, my brother & myself took my baby brother to see Britney Spears in concert (my baby brother loved her music, my older brother went for the eye candy :D ). While it was a fun & glittery show, the biggest spectacle of all were the little girls in full hoochie regalia. My brother & I nearly passed out when we witnessed an adorable little girl, about 5 yrs. old, wearing a hot pink triangle bikini top, teensy mini skirt & boots. Of course, dear old Moms was wearin' the same matching ensemble. Oh, and endless, sarcastic props to the older women dressed in Britney's Hit-Me-Baby-One-More-Time schoolgirl outfit. C'mon now! If the look you were trying to achieve is underage innocent schoolgirl, you missed the mark. If ancient desperate hosehound in pigtails once rejected by Barely Legal magazine was your goal, then score one for you.
Okay, now I feel guilty! :( I didn't mean to be mean, but really! Is it such a difficult task to exude a little class & self-respect? Is dignity out of style this season? Because in my eyes, it never goes out of style. :)
