I've not read all the posts, just going by the first few ...

I think when you reach certain points in your life your attitude adjusts.

When I was 16+ I was super fit and had an amazingly sculpted body, abs to boot, toned arms, great legs and I proudly wore clothes that revealed my physique. I didn't care if people made judgements, I looked good so I wore what I wanted because I could and most of those who judged me, frankly, couldn't measure up! I wore the same types of clothes until my body "softened"

When I look at teens today, my first reaction is prudish "geez love put some clothes on" then I remember that I did the same at that age.

Now my upbringing was sheltered, my parents were super strict ... BUT they supplied me the clothes, I didn't work as a teen. When I did start working I learnt the hard way about appropriate dressing.

I think the kids dressing like mini tramps is terrible but its the parents who buy the clothes for the younger ones, you can hardly blame unemployed tweens for their fashion sense!

Older teens , well I think its part and parcel of their exploring their youthfulness and sexuality. I don't agree with it but who am I to judge when I did the same.

oh yeah

nudity and sexualness (is that a word) should be seen as two different things
