I agree. I'm simply saying that the media puts out terrible examples for young girls to follow. Pop singers in skimpy shirts and tight jeans worn just above said person's crotch... Perfect looking air-brushed models showing off 'what a woman should be'. It does effect them, they see this nonsense and think "well, that's what is cool, I gotta be like this" or "I have to act like this person does". It's true that they are ultimately responsible (along with their parents) for their actions, but at that age it's hell in a hand basket to tell them no, or for them to use common sense...
