Little Miss provocative, UK's first kiddies beauty contest

Salaams All

Something i came across on another forum, excellent comments by a sister, mashAllah.

Little Miss Provocative

Padded bra, hair extensions, high heels, a skimpy mini-dress, fake nails, caked on foundation…and she’s just 10 years old.

Sash Bennington is a contestant in UK first ever kiddie pageant. Her mum used to do glamour stuff and has taught her that “nobody wants to be around ugly people”.

Beauty pageants are big in the US…but apparently its catching on in the UK too.

How dodgy is this? Kids look beautiful only when they act and look according to their age…

I cant remember when this was… but a six year old pageant beauty queen was abused and murdered in the US a while ago…

What I also don’t understand is that…some families don’t have an issue with dressing their little girls in skimpy clothing…..yeh I know they’re not yet required to wear the Hijaab but why on Earth dress little girls in tiny shorts/dresses or tops that show the stomach only to forbid it later on?

In schools kids from the age of 7/8 are taught EXPLICITLY the differences between girls and boys….from year 5/6 when incorporating “multi-culturalism” into the classroom, some schools teach girls and boys in PE to shake their booty to reggae music…..

And then the government wonders why UK has the highest teen pregnancy in the whole of Europe…

It’s a weird society we live in…

It IS dodgy but at the same time, that's not always true. When you have 10-11-12 year old girls who are developing earlier than their peers, they have bodies of women but still mentally they are only kids. Should we be treating them like "womeN" coz they do "look" like women? **

I"m assuming she's talking abt Muslim families. To be honest i've never seen that in desi families, in many desi Muslim families, the girls are taught from a young age to have sharam around their parents, esp fathers and brothers. They might not be wearing hijab but they're not prancing around in miniskirts and dresses. **

Little girls in our family (like babies to age 8ish) are dressed in dresses. I've seen plenty of baby girls dressed in dresses. What planet are you living on?

Yeah, its pretty sick. What's more sick are the guys that check these kiddy girls out.

^ Girls dressing up for Eid or a wedding or another function is totally different than girls participating in beauty contests.
