Why do girls from 6-16 need to look yummy? Disturbing.

In 1950s when there was no food on the fridge you would eat the kids

You should read some of the fucking creepy reviews of Brooke Shields' 1978 movie Pretty Baby. Tons of reviewers talking about how she oozes sex appeal. She was 11 when filming the movie.
