Although a school must provide education to children, it’s questionable whether it should interfere with self-expression. School uniforms remain controversial. Some believe that they could have a positive “social leveling” effect, others think they will help children concentrate on education and some believe that it will stifle individuality. Since I tend to be in the ...

There are so many important lessons feminists need to impart to the young teen and tween women of today. I personally would like to let “pretty girls” (and only the pretty girls) know that they don’t really have to try at school, read the occasional book or go to homework club because their looks will ...

My attention was drawn this week to an article in the Guardian. This article made the point that, in these days of greater-than-ever freedom and appreciation for female sexuality, male sexuality has become a feared and mistrusted aspect of modern life. From current misgivings on the sexualization of children — in which girls are the ...

In a recent interview with Howard Stern, Lady Gaga told her young fans that they should wait to have sex. Too bad she was dressed in a scantily-clad, bondage-inspired outfit.

Toy dolls have gotten increasingly creepy. They first started by blinking and next thing you know they are crying and peeing. With the Breast Milk Baby, you can help your daughter fulfill even more of the perfect mother’s duties by making her doll breastfeed. The doll, made by Spanish company Berjuan Toys, comes with “special flowered ...

For all the myths about British sexual repression, I reckon this place is pretty darn open about sex. But the current government have lately become worried about the sexualization of children in the UK. Teenage pregnancy has actually dropped by 5.9 percent since 2008 but this is a government who won’t let the facts get ...

Playing in the sandpit, eating leaves and watching Sesame Street can get a little mundane when you’re a 3-year-old, so a dance instructor in Britain has devised a new way to entertain tiny tots. Pole-dancing lessons are now being offered to children aged three to seven in the “Make Me Fabulous” dance studio in Northhampton. ...

When it comes to sex, parents want to shield their children as much as possible. It’s understandable that they would rather them get their learners’ permits before driving in the fast lane, but eventually kids will grow up, drive fast and have sex. The UK government is trying to slow down this process by introducing ...

When dressing a toddler, pre-schooler or other little one, what’s most important? Function? Warmth? Quality? Or Sexiness? A study has revealed almost one third of clothing designed for, and targeted at, young girls can be classified as “sexy.” While feminists have been theorizing and protesting against the objectification of children for many years, here is ...

Middle school girls took their suspension due to their love of boobies to a national courtroom and found that the justice system also loves the lady lumps. The “I heart boobies” bracelet campaign has been prosperous, meaningful, and ultimately a success for breast cancer awareness and fundraising. Bracelets made by the Keep A Breast Foundation ...
