Oh, come on. It’s not such a bad thing to teach girls that they can be fashionable and pretty without dressing like hookers. I find mid-drift baring tops marketed to little girls much more disturbing. This movement of encouraging modesty seems very promising to me.

The imagery in this post has me so aroused. Oh, you mean it wasn’t supposed to do that?

Another good one, Rachel. I’ll never understand how people can embrace such an obvious double standard. Their poor daughters. Wonder what happens if daughter falls short of these lofty goals? By the way, I want a whore-o-meter. And purity can be fun and glamorous? I’ll remember that the next time I spend another Saturday night alone!

I laughed my ass while reading this. “And then the locusts came…” I guess they don’t have to worry about their sons because all the girls are pure and chaste and have pledged their virginity to their fathers or whatever.

I checked the Pure Fashion website and I have to admit, some of the clothes are really cute. The Model Training Program sounds like a fricking charm school, though, and I thought those went out decades ago.

Sometimes I am just amazed that there is such discrimination and ignorance when it comes to women and sexuality. It’s the 21st century!

That is insanity … totally non sequitor. I mean your post title is “Who’s afraid of the big bad pussy?”, Dane Cook, the comic, has a joke that goes like this:

“I want a dozen kids, I want my wife’s vagina to be so open, that it will be like Stargate. *Shoooooooom* kid walks out, ties their own umbilical cord, “Later! I’m going to school!”

In the same line of misogynous creepiness, in the south, they have Daddy/Daughter dances where girls pledge their hymens/”purity” to their fathers. It really is a psuedo NAMBLA phenomena. For example, check out: http://www.goodfellow.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123058330

And I quote:

The daddies and daughters ended the evening with a slow dance, which Sergeant Martinez described as “emotional.”

um, ew…
