This is the music that helped shaped my pre-teen years.<BR/><BR/>Don't forget that Bow Wow Wow stirred up quite a bit of controversy when an under-aged Annabella posed nude on the cover of their album. Other hits of theirs included <I>Wild in the Country</I> and <I>Sexy Eiffel Towers</I>, both of of which were a bit less innocent.<BR/><BR/>When I watched the 3rd video, I was pretty impressed at how tame it really is compared to a lot of the videos out there.<BR/><BR/>And yes, we've become a more openly sexual culture. That means we're also more open about sexual abuse, and inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace. The price a great many women paid for the "innocent sexuality" of the past was a high one.<BR/><BR/>So, all in all, be glad that your daughter is being raised in a world that will allow her to be empowered and in charge of her own sexuality. She'll be glad of that when she enters the workforce and has the tools to deal with some of those people raised to treat women like objects.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9319479.post-2305886008240636472008-08-06T18:54:00.000+03:002008-08-06T18:54:00.000+03:00Thank you for taking the opportunity to effectivel...Thank you for taking the opportunity to effectively illustrate the troubling drift in our culture.

It's that my daughter thinks that this is the only type of dancing. She doesn't seem to know that their are other types of dance, or that today's dance is deliberately trying to emulate stripping.<BR/><BR/>I know that every generation thinks their kids are degenerate, but this series of videos is actual proof.Yehuda Berlingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16038826060312027387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9319479.post-82145261444855329952008-08-06T01:12:00.000+03:002008-08-06T01:12:00.000+03:001) Congratulations, you're officially old. 2) You ...1) Congratulations, you're officially old. <BR/><BR/>2) You must know some pretty boring strippers. <BR/><BR/>3) I can't wait to see how my daughter horrifies me.Marc Majcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16124777336262355759noreply@blogger.com
