oh GOD. its this movie about an 11 year old girl being peer pressured into hyper sexualizing herself while trying to figure out how to express herself. all great on paper, very important message. except for the fact that the movie literally is exactly what it's trying to be about, which is the hyper sexualization of minors

currently watching this video because this dude is great at talking about Things

I love D'Angelo!!
Cuties is something that would've worked really well as a book told from the MC's point of view, but as a movie….nope.
Honestly some stuff just can't be made into films (which is something I stand by for many things, not just this atrocity) and Cuties is definitely something that should never have even been greenlit, let alone released to Netflix.

"So you won't be gross anymore! Well… Actually some of y'all are just-… So your feet won't be gross anymore!"

When he mentions the Ben Shapiro WAP thing I lost it-

I was wondering when Cuties would come up. It’s just a mess.

The worst part is that the idea on its own isn't awful. A kid is peer pressured into exploiting herself for an adult audience? That happens, it does and it's awful. But deciding to say "let's make this a film! and have actual kids star in it! and barely clothe them and have them twerk!" completely destroys that.
To quote Obi-Wan Kenobi, "you've become the very thing you swore to destroy!"

And of course the Twitter pedos are having a hayday with it all :/

Honestly I think it’s natural progression of the sexual culture we have.

Ugh I think I put one of my contacts in wrong today and now my eyes hurt even though they're out.
Fun.

Me: Says crap
My friend, jokingly: That's a no-no word
Me: fecal matter

But…
My brain not working today: Yesn't

…
I'm trying to process what that's supposed to be conveying through the written word

honestly none of this surprises me
with the way our world is, this was bound to happen

I'm hoping that people see this as a wake-up call to maybe not sexualize children, but I doubt it.

I'd like to make a retraction on every time I've said "I forgot how not bad the people in my school are" because they do be pretty shitty

Exactly. Sex is everywhere. Young teens are having sex. You’ve all seen the “What I looked like at twelve” things.

Have we though

Oh y’know baby millennials dressed up like big toddlers and then modern kids with full faces of makeup and all that.

Kids aren’t proper kids anymore. They’re shoved into an extremely oversexualized world that isn’t good for them.

Ohh you mean adults sexualizing children and being upset that they didn't have the access that kids have now to technology and makeup tutorials?

Children sexualize children. That’s the worst of it. Granted most are above thirteen but they are still children.

I'd argue that pedophilia is worse than some underage kids having sex with each other
