the thought of sexy children should not exist as such!

[foxtongue]

I live in a mid-sized Florida town with the usual array of stuff, things and locales. On the main drag is a Hooters, which is a good enough place as an eatery goes. The waitress gimmick is laughable, at best...tolerable, when in pursuit of wings, boiled shrimp and beer.

The sign on the verge advertising the Little Miss Hooters contest is, however, beyond the pale. We called this evening, asked for details. The contest is for girls 5 and under, and will require they be dressed in little orange spandex shorts, and a tied up Hooters t-shirt.

Alrighty - don't know about you folk, but I'm pretty damned disturbed.

Re: South Park gave it the treatment

South Park had an awesome satire of the whole Hooters phenomenon while at the same time mocking the current sexualization of younger and younger kids. The restaurant in the episode was called "Raisins" and the waitresses are dressed (barely) up young girls...Butters falls in love with a "Raisins" whore who flirts for money. Whatever.

As a person who works with kids and does at lot of child advocacy, the whole concept sickens me. Watching little beauty pageant contestants strut around all tarted up sickens me. What the hell is wrong with the people who do this kind of thing to their kids? I want to punch those people in the neck.

Or as Cartman would say, " Weeeaaakk."
