14 year-olds look more older than they did when I was a kid. I teach teens and I have to get on them about their mode of dress because they either vastly underestimate or vastly overestimate their body shape. Some of them show too much skin and some show too much baby fat. Some men see this as alluring. I think most just have an "any old port in a storm" attitude.

And I'm saying that this is probably a normal response to an overt (or unknowing) seductiveness...but what now? There is no longer much of a societal/cultural taboo against the fulfillment of that response, short of punishing those who get caught, and so many don't get caught.
