[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope Beyoncé knows what she’s doing because her daughter is only 13 years old, she looks much older than that and she is very pretty. I would be worried about it, but I’m not her mom. I have no opinion on her talent or abilities because I know zero about that.[/quote]

Black girls always look older to some people :roll:  [/quote]

Only if dressed to show cleavage and tight clothes. Same goes for white girls. [/quote] You can think what you want about Blue Ivy but you should educate yourself on adultification.

BS excuses for drssing in a sexy way intentionally.[/quote] This isn’t about ‘excuses’, it’s about understanding the real, documented ways Black girls are perceived and treated differently in society. The article I shared is based on research by Georgetown Law that shows Black girls are more likely to be seen as older, less innocent, and more adult than their white peers. It’s not about what anyone wears; it’s about the lens through which they’re viewed. Ignoring that just reinforces the problem. I’d really encourage you to read the report with an open mind before writing it off as BS.[/quote]

I see seen that research and work with all kinds of teens and kids from 5 to 18. I undwrstand what the saying. I also know that most of the Black girls in my schools dress appropritely, as do white, Hispanic, and Asian. There are more than a few from all groups, however, (fewer Asians) who show up as young as elementary school with their tight shorts up to their crotches and midriff bared. Teens wearing tight tops with cleavage showing. They don't have to dress like that, and we keep clothes in the front office closet for those who need a change. [/quote]
