Streetwalkers With Guidance
Young pre-pubescent teens dressed-up like hookers pass through my store all the time. Bare midriffs, padded bras showing barely existent cleavage and tight fitting bottoms made to slide smoothly over a pole. At what age would you let your daughter wear a thong? At what point should parents put their foot down? Don't parents realize that there is a huge underground sex trafficking industry?
Notice the picture on the left. A picture of prostitutes in Spain. Notice how they are fully dressed for work with reflective vest that protect them from getting hit by cars at night. These women are selling sex, yet they don't have a uniform anymore because young teenage girls have taken over and confuse many new buyers.
Now I'm not saying that it's okay for men to attack women who are dressed in a certain attire, but young girls are still in their childhood.
I watched a young girl standing with her mother and father. Her top was nothing but a cutoff tankini (bra/tank top) and a skirt similar to the one worn in the image at the top of my post. I stared in shock because her dad was standing next to her as if there was nothing wrong.
Her mom purchased thong underwear for her and was a little angry at the high price. She turns to her daughter and the daughter turns her head away in a manner of dismissal. The dad goes into his pocket and pulls out his wallet to pay for the purchase.
The entitled generation strikes again. I watched the family walk away and shook my head in confusion. The daughter didn't carry any bags and never thanked her parents. She just walked ahead of them like a leader with two followers. A sad observation that I've witnessed on more than just this one occasion.
