I'm not stupid enough that I need a movie to tell me that there's an increased sexualization of girls or that there's both significant social and frankly economic pressures.

Based on the cover art alone i would grimiss throughout the movie and not in a good way.

Therefore no need to watch.


I mean i'm super outraged and i'm going to cancle my wifes parents netflix subscription.

Nuff said

Which close up on the 11 year old’s ass did you like the most?

I can sort of get the message behind it, IE: "Your kids are doing this shit daily on Tiktok and other apps and you don't give a shit, maybe you will now."

But I don't think it will succeed in getting its point accross.

In the movie the repressive parents are the bad guys and the girl gets freedom by dancing. She isn't exposed to the sexuality until she meets another girl and she actively seeks it out and her sexually dancing isn't seen by society as a whole as good. So that analysis doesnt really hold up. It's portraying sexualizing kids as the hero.

I haven't seen the film not a preview of it, so I won't comment on it.

However, I do have a friend who has owned and operated a dance school for over 20 years, with dancers ranging from 3 to 18 years old, and one of her cardinal rules she's adhered to the entire time is that in any recitals, performances, or competitions, the kids never have any revealing or "sexualized" outfits. They're always dressed modestly, specifically to prevent the hypersexualization depicted in this film.

Kids just emulate trendy stars, musicians, etc.

Didn't watch the movie but i wish these types of films would target and call out the actual culprits of why society is this way not just generalities. Did they do that? Did they talk about rap culture and how that distills down into what kids do?

Like wtf do you expect when people like Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, etc are idols for so many kids?

Yeah, when the president is known to be someone who walks into teenagers dressing rooms and brags about grabbing women by the p**** what do you expect

had the film stated after WAP came out they may have.

rap stars are a bad influence but overall i think beauty pageants, instagram bikini models, and fashion models are more to blame here. as well as pop stars like Ariana Grande and Britney Spears.

i also wrestle with a solution to giving women direction of their own fashion and showing off and how to stop children from doing the same. i would never date or especially marry a woman who was too provocative, but im fine with women doing it, and not just for pervy reasons.

but this is the fundamental issue with coming of age, kids want to try cigarettes, want to drink a beer, want to experiment sexually, want to swear, etc. animals all follow this same path, young animals learn how to be an adult by emulating adults, and its a fine line to stop this. you dont bring lion cubs on the hunt, but you teach them to hunt each other.



ahh yes the line between Trump and WAP is totally clear. both said pussy, must be connected.
