All I know is that Mylie Cyrus Seems to Have Done Wonders for Pre-Teen Sexualization.

11. It is sad. I rarely go to Huffington Post to follow the rest of an article posted here on DU

that I might want to read..because of the horrible Celebrity Sensationalism that Arianna has on her site. She is supposed to be for Female Rights...but Celebrity Porn infests her site...and it blares and distracts from the informative News Sight she is supposed to be promoting.

I know it doesn't bother lots of people...but, maybe it's just an age group thing that for those of us who fought for Women's Rights to see that trash posted there that brings her clicks. It just slows down my computer and I don't want to bother with the Babes, Boobs and which Celeb got a face job, is showing Baby Bump or is Abusing her Kids or on her 2nd, or 3'rd Boy Toy or whatever. It's distracting but people love it and her site is doing well as far as we know.... But, it's not just HuffPost...it's everywhere. Sort of like race to the bottom of how far into Celeb Porn by their Agents promoting them. And if I see another Kim Kardashian (who the hell is she) I just want to run.

AND this filters down to our kids who think this just MUST BE the way to seem IMPORTANT in a world where FEW of us are ever going to be Celebs or Wall Street Billionaires or Facebook Wonders.

It just bothers me....but...I've felt it bothers others much less who feel Freedom of Expression is for the Common Good because anything else is CENSORSHIP. And, I remember how I love Comic Books and in my era there were reports that Comic Books would lead a whole generation into Ruin! I read Lolita at 13... Thought it was boring after awhile...but, can't say it wasn't provocative. So...it's hard to know where to draw lines these days when much of what we all enjoyed or at least were part of when we were young might have seemed "taboo" to our parents if they knew. But...it wasn't commonly approved of so there was that excitement of rebellion.

I guess I feel that much of what we used to do as "Taboo" is now MAINSTREAM...and not sure of my reaction as to why I think some is so OTT that it's questionable as to the value of it. And sexualization of pre-teens when there's so much freedom of expression these days may lead on unintended consequences...or not.

So...there's that and why I asked.
