    I would like to hear from some of the male members here with daughters, as to what they think.

    Draqon is the only male response so far.

    I know the feeling, but SAM is the odd man out here isn't she? It appears that she has no idea what she is talking about once again.

    she feels she sees the light of truth when she sees its reflection in her own eyes, everyone sees this world in their own way, every light reaches us in different spectrum, our ideas and believes are shaped because of this.

    your fault is that you don't realize that other people find this sexualizing of children an incentive for them to be raped. This alone should be enough to stop children from being sexualized, to prevent them from possible harm. In addition to them being not mature in the first place.

    Its like wearing a red shirt in a city full of bulls...here bulls I am peaciful and I am just wearing this extremely red shirt to attract you and make you raged.

    young children, for the sickos that do EXIST out there.

    No, that child isn't dolled up with tons of makeup to make her look much older than she is.

    shorty...you have to understand the world SAM has come from...in India they color the girls all around their bodies, they paint them make them wear all these "cute" clothes and its a cultural thing.

    To really know the truth one has to think like everyone around him, the rapist, the judge, the mother, the father, the child, the killer, media organizer, president...anyone...one must think of why they make the choices they make

    You're right about that - it is a cultural thing. Most Indian cultures find the state of nudeness to be regular, and don't disparage this fact between children and adults.

    If you ask me, the parents of these "child beauty pageants" are idiots, and are exploiting the sexual nature of their undeveloped children nationwide for the prospect of fame and fortune.
