By Marybeth Hicks
Recently, I read an article about a research report that says 30
percent of all the clothing made for young girls is sexualized —
meaning, it’s designed in such a way to promote a sexy image. I had a
hard time believing this. I figured it had to be more like 80 percent.
At least, that’s what it feels like when I’m shopping with my
13-year-old and it’s all we can do to find things that completely cover
the body, much less present a positive, wholesome image of an... Read More. See More Opinion.
