See, there's a line that needs to be drawn.
And I'd say it needs to be drawn, oooh, over THERE. Not here. Eight year olds do not need bikini waxes. Just....no. (Link (should be) SFW).
Eeeeee. This is perilously close to that old "Mr. Show" sketch coming to pass, about the pre-natal beauty pageant makeovers.
OK, if you do not have pubes, you do not need a bikini wax. End of fucking story. People are perilously dumb, particularly people with money to waste. If you have money to waste, send it to me, I'll have a fucking bikini wax.
I think this is one of those debates where we're preaching to the choir, maybe. I was irritated a week or two ago to hear that preteens are getting highlights in their hair, for goodness' sake. Bikini waxing, I have no words.

I'd rather contribute to the Save the Fridge Cheese Foundation.
As always, it's about insecure parents. Maybe they could spend that money on better therapists.
Call me when kids this age are getting boob jobs.
No, wait, don't. I don't want to know.
TP apparently it is becoming popular, if not common, amongst a certain socio-economic strata to give breast augmentation as a sweet 16 birthday gift.
I personally find it surprising its even legal to do purely cosmetic (non-reconstructive) surgery on a minor at all.
but enough of that I have to run and get my butthole botoxed.
Great article. Disturbing, yes! Can someone please explain to me what a blowout is?
And does this explain why Medusa is getting her butthole botoxed?
Without the ugly years, when do you learn to accept yourself?
Bravo.
After all, it is a brave new world?
I really hope this isn't more widespread than in a specific segment of the population. But when one read on the news about high-school graduates getting breast implants as 'graduation prize' from daddy & mommy, damn...
Unless things have changed since the last time I fussed with my hair, a blowout is when you go into the salon and they blow-dry and style your hair.
A blowout is when, after too much bouncy-bouncy, your implants asplode.
I just use that brown packing tape stuff. Takes hair, zits, and even some skin. Not that I take bikini waxes... I don't even own a bikini.
Back in the days of barber shops little boys would often get a 'shave' with the back of the blade...you know, just to be like dad. This is similar yet very, very different.
No, rocket, they don't want to be like mom. They want to be like Barbie Paris Brit the slut of the day.
Mom is so oooooooooold. That's why she can't wait to live vicariously through her daughter.
BlueHorse, maybe there's something in that? Women having children later in life means they feel older? There's no excuse for it, obviously, but yeah.
Again, obviously, a tiny, tiny segment of the population, but really, what the heck is going through their minds?
...going through their tiny, tiny minds....
Well, you HAVE to get your teeth whitened, eyebrows plucked, facial skin dermabrasioned, and - yes - bikini line waxed. Otherwise people won't love you. And every mother wants her child to be loved!
I'm not sure whether to blame the marketing-industrial complex, or the idiots (like these mothers) who buy into it uncritically and whole-heartedly.

Now this bikini line thing...
Outside or inside the suit?
I've never done the math but if I did a statistical analysis on the daily events that make me think "oh god, I'm glad I dont have children" vs. ones that might make me wish to have a family....well I am sure we'd need scientific notation to express a number of that magnitude.
this is NOT an anti-child screed, its a "horror-at-the-modern-world-complexities-of-child-rearing" screed.
/shudder
"They don't see anything wrong with it," he said. "It leaves me speechless."
And it almost leaves me that way, too. In one hand, hey, it's not like this is the first generation of teenagers that are flirty and sexually adventurous; of course, the immediacy and characteristics of digital media makes these events mind-boggling. While in the past there were incriminating letters, notes and maybe the hidden portrait or a steamy polaroid or two, it wasn't as easy to send it to just about everybody with net access, bringing about a possible litigious nightmare with life-wrecking consequences for all involved.
I remember my parents' tales of how, in when they were young, many girls weren't allowed to attend school, one of the arguments being 'what for, so they can learn to read and write letters to their boyfriends?' And about the 'moral outrage' of having a machine that allowed innocent, young women hear the voice of a male in their very own houses, without some elder's supervision...
Yeah, technology is shaping society, and it's not any easier being a parent nowadays.
Wanda's European Skin care here in NYC refers to it as "Virgin Waxing".
OK then...
This is why all monkeys are duty-bound to reproduce as much as possible: to provide intelligent spawn to counteract these idjits.
And I haven't seen mention in this thread of the newest beautification trend - butthole bleaching. You can have it done in a salon, like Gwyneth did, or you can DIY. Jes' git yerself some o' thet age-spot cream, and slather it on yer hiney. Lot's cheaper thataway.
Ooops!
Guess I shouldn't have recommended Chlorox to Hank and RTD then, eh?
I'm not flexible enough to get a good look at mine but what could
possibly be going wrong back there that I'd need bleach to fix ??!?
Come take a look at mine. All will be revealed.
That's the sort of thing that the good folks at Wikipedia write articles about, so we don't have to wonder or explain.
Yes, they have a whole artice about Kit's ring.
I'm not at all surprised that kit has a ring around his. I think it's about bath time for you, sonny boy! And scrub behind your ears, also.
This is the definitive article about anal bleaching.
You're welcome.
P.S. Pictures are SFW with the possible exception of an androgynous puppet with no pants on. Verbiage, however, is definitely NSFW.
That article is a treasure trove of anal puns and nicknames, and I thank you.
Lol, yes it is, mct. But my favorite line may be this:
"Suffice it to say a brown asshole hasn't gotten this much undeserved attention since Al Sharpton's last press conference."
These puns are so ass-trocious, I think we should make this guy an Ass-ociate Monkey.
MonkeyFilter: Side effects may also include severe burning, itching, swelling, stinging, and/or crusting.
Barbie Paris Britthe slut of the day. Mom is so oooooooooold. That's why she can't wait to live vicariously through her daughter.
