The sexualisation of pre-pubescent kids by Western popular culture is a very interesting topic, but I'm still not sure exactly what the topic of this thread is so I'll not start on about that just yet. Suffice it to say that I think Britney and others, who market themselves at that age group, bear a share of the responsibility. Kids look up to their role models and they want to be like them. If their role models start playing on their sexuality, they will want to follow. It's not rocket science and I don't think recognising the fact makes you a jumped up little madam.
