I agree. I think anything that even suggests “sex appeal” is damaging to children.
In the Midwest, events such as county fairs have “baby shows,” where the point is for the baby to look happy and healthy, in a traditional frilly frock or sailor suit. I don’t think that’s inappropriate.
Of course, the last time I saw one was at least 20 years ago. The babies may all be dressed as ho’s and gangstas now.
A quick search of “county fair baby show pictures” has little girls in frilly frocks and baby boys in cute little boy outfits featuring tractors and stuff.
Good.
I have always been the sort that approved of achievement.
The “Oh look, he’s so cute, just look at him, why what a handsome fellow or pretty girl...” stuff, not so much.
