I feel like the question of "underage" (a subjective and ultimately sort of meaningless term) is less relevant than the issue itself, which is the superficial and senseless sexualization of marketing in what are, essentially, children's stories. > And Emma Watson wasn't *especially* sexualized.

It's been a long time since you were 14, hasn't it? ;) Seriously, though, if the touched-up ad had neither purpose nor effect, one wonders why they'd have gone to the trouble of doing it at all. -- -pcg [email protected] -- dadl-ot mailing list http://mail.thehood.us/mailman/listinfo/dadl-ot_thehood.us http://news.gmane.org/gmane.music.dadl.ot
