Yes, I’m kind of a prude when it comes to entertainment and sexuality. For instance I’m horrified by the Disneyfication of the upcoming Ramona movie. And pageant kids and their moms are worse than clowns and mimes on my nightmare scale. But the furor over the clip of these girls dancing passed me by.

I wanted to look on in shock, but they’re so talented that instead I started to wonder if I could bill myself as a talent agent and contact a couple of them. Surely they are on their way to stardom. At least I hope. They are totally into the act, mouthing the words and making faces. Playing along. Awesomeness. So I was ready to let this one pass without comment.

But thanks to the dudes at The Skorpion Show, I found a video along these lines that IS totally cringe-worthy.

In this clip, a boy is exhorted by the adults looking on to grab onto this young girls hips as she is encouraged to really grind into him. Now THAT’S sexualizing children in a totally inappropriate way. Just look at the way she breaks out into a sheen of sweat. Viewer discretion is advised…
