This is from my friend's fb post:
"Moms of little girls might want to listen to this one: I am in line at the store with my son - mind you, my 2 1/2 year old son. There is a mom and three little girls in front of us in line. I am guessing their ages to range between 5 and 8. They are all wearing similar outfits: striped tees layered over tanks, ugg-like boots of varying colors and heights and leggings. The fit of the clothes left very little to the imagination. As I was mentally judging the mother for letting her young daughters wear such clothing, my son interrupted my thoughts, "Everybody has a butt?" he asked loudly - his gazed transfixed on the derrière of the youngest girl. "Yes [son]. Everybody has a butt AND a nose AND toes AND a head..." I answered, hoping to change the subject. "That girl has a nice butt" [son] continued on - not to be deterred from the subject at hand. At this point the mom turned around to look at us and all I could give her was a withering smile. "Momma" [son] shook the handle of the cart to regain my attention, "I want to touch that girls butt....". At that point I left the line and took my toddler to the toy isle to pick out a car. All I can say is if a 2 1/2 year old boy can't tear his eyes off a little girl's leggings-shrink-wrapped rear then there's probably plenty of nasty old pervs who feel the same way. I don't care if it's what's in "style" - dress your kids modestly!"
UPDATE:
This child is raised a strict Jewish. He has seen 1/2 hour of tv in his whole life. So where he go it, who knows.
But no, little girls should NOT be able to wear tight leggings that hug their ass, unless a shirt covers it. Just because they are young, doesn't mean they should get to run around dressed like sluts.
And yes, butt-hugging tights are slutty. On anyone.
This is my friend's response:
"He's 2 1/2, does not watch television, movies, go to daycare, etc. what IS going on, is he is very curious about bodies now. Especially girl bodies. The curiosity is completely normal for his stage of development. And since he is a very verbal child, his ability to articulate that he wanted to touch the girls butt falls in line with his learning curve as well. And I'm assuming it is the biological imperative of being a male coupled with being exclusively breast fed - but the kid is hung up on boobies as well - to the point where I don't take him into the family locker room at the YMCA when the teenage swim team is in there because his stares make them so uncomfortable. The point of the anecdote that I shared is that when little girls dress to emphasize a body part and it draws the attention of even a little toddler (not ever to imply it was sexualized attention) the style of dress is going to also demand the attention of grown men - and THAT attention will most likely be sexualized."
THAT was the point behind the post. And have any of you seen this South Park?: https://www.southparkstudios.com/full-episodes/s08e12-stupid-spoiled-whore-video-playset

Just my 2.5 cents.
