Yea I think it is disturbing. Why should kids be able to buy a bikini in the first place? A tankini sure, a one piece yes, but a bikini, no. I think that they are becoming too sexualized. It's getting ridiculous. A few months ago I was at the mall and I saw these girls, they must have been only 7 or 8. But they were coming out of La Senza (Canadian Equivalent to Victorias Secret). They also were dressed way too provocatively and were wearing a lot of makeup. I am a 21 year old woman and I can't even shop in La Senza stores, as they don't go up big enough, I don't think anything is bigger than a D there. And it disturbs me that they make lingerie that fits kids but not a grown woman. It's getting ridiculous. Same with bikini's everywhere, I can't find one that fits me, a 21 year old woman, yet they make them for kids. Seems kind of wrong if you ask me.
The very idea of having clothes for an age group as diverse as 7-14 is absurd. I mean a 7 yo is usually WAAAAAAAAY different than a 14 yo. duh haha
like usually girls hit puberty somewhere inbetween there, so I mean maybe a 14 yo might want a little padding for support or coverage but not a 7yo!
just another example of corporate stupidity at its finest.
That's insane. I have a 10 year old cousin who puts on a ton of makeup and a bikini and takes pictures of herself in front of the mirror to put on Facebook. It saddens me that 10 year old girls are being taught to dress "sexy". There should be nothing sexual about a girl that young.
I'm 30 and have a really nice body. I exercise Monday - Friday so when I go out I feel I deserve to show off. Most of time I look better than most girls in bikinis. I'm not gloating but a speedo keeps you in check. Just like girls worrying about what they look like in a bikini. I don't worry but I like keeping a healthy lifestyle where I look good half naked or even completely naked. I live in Florida and I do get made fun of on occasion but it's always by some redneck and I always get compliments from girls. I think it's a shame that society has shunned the male form. Oh and guys stay away from the thongs. Girls like seeing a nice ass but they don't want to actually see the cheeks.
I really have a problem with that. Its encouraging girls from an early age too be sexualized. it also put the idea in their head that their breast need too look bigger in order to be normal.
I hate society and media for doing this to youths sometimes I want to burn the whole world.
I really do think its easier growing up as a guy, I really feel for young woman growing up today.
Its harder for them, when they have to succumb to how "society" says they should act and look.

no! I think it's disgusting the way fashion and society encourage things like this.
people that buy this brand and others like it are going to regret not having a childhood when they get older, it's not fair that our society doesn't let kids be kids.
No, it is wrong to start sexualizing little girls at that age. It's the media's fault and society's fault for keeping up with the supply and demand for the sh*t on TV.
Ridiculous. A&F will be forced to pull the product off the shelves -- they have had to do this with other items in the past.
it's not necessary. I would hope that parents don't buy bullsh*t like this for there daughters at that age.
Its inappropriate. Like when they advertize "barely 18" on 'Girls-Gone-Wild'...I have a 10 year old daughter; she wears a one-piece.
I had boobs when I was 8, (I wasn't fat, I just grew up fast) and it sucked. Girls are cruel about that early on, and have to deal with enough body issues when they get older. Its just stupid if you ask me, but I think they are making a bit of a mess with it. Just leave it be and it will go away.
I dn`t think it`s necessary. I don`t understand why they do this, young girls don`t need that kind of encouragement.
Well My sister bought one when she was 14, but that was only because she doesnøt like when people can see her nipples, otherwise I think itøs very wrong
Yeah I saw that on the news. Crazy stuff... my daughter is 2 years old, imagine what's gonna be out in stores when she's a teenager :(
i think ti's sick. at that age, they souldn't be worrying about stuff like that
