Culture Frustrated dad calls out oversexualized baby clothes for girls - inb4 someone posts the baby rape image

One dad realized how oversexualized young girls are when he received an eyebrow-raising onesie for his newborn daughter.

TikTok user Michael (@world.shaker) posted a response to a prompt asking when users realized that the oversexualization of women started so young. Michael’s response, which has over 3 million views, breaks down his eye-opening experience of trying to find clothes for his daughter.


Michael said he knew the oversexualizion of girls’ clothing was going to be bad, but he didn’t know “how bad.”

But then he and his spouse were sent a onesie for their daughter that said: “Sorry, boys. Dad says no dating.” — sized for a newborn.

“I guess I’m wondering who they thought was going to date our 0-month-old daughter,” said Michael.

But it wasn’t just the inappropriate things written on the onesie that alarmed Michael. It was also the designs themselves.

“Why does everything have ruffles? Why is everything hyper pink? Why is everything glittery?” he asked.

Michael also pointed out that the fit of girls’ clothing is tighter than the fit of boys’ clothing, noting that girl clothes are often smaller than boy clothes even though they’re the same size.

“I don’t get why boys get normal shorts while my daughter gets shorts with an inseam of -2,” the frustrated father said.

Oversexualization isn’t just frustrating for parents who want to create safe environments for their kids. It can also have lasting effects on the child. According to an American Psychological Association report, “girls exposed to sexualizing and objectifying media are more likely to experience body dissatisfaction, depression and low self-esteem.”

Given the research, Michael’s point on how even infants are exposed to sexualization is definitely concerning. Other parents on TikTok agreed, voicing their support in the comments section.

“Why can’t they let girls be girls instead of mini women? I don’t get that,” one user wrote.

Another parent also noticed inappropriate phrases written on clothing for girls. “And the ‘little heartbreaker’ onesies, like no!”

Theres a lot of creepy sexualized kids clothing out there. Like thongs for little girls.

Me and my husband once saw and outfit in a store for like a 6-8 year old girls that had tiny sequined hot pants that looked more like panties and a shirt that said "Daddy's little kitty cat" that had cutouts with fishnet type fabric on them. It came with a cat ear headband. It looked like a stripper outfit for a little kid.

I was just at a Target earlier in the week and they had their swimsuits for young girls out and one of the one piece ones was like a quarter some kind of mesh material. I think it may have also been rainbow colored. I felt awkward just walking by it and kinda pissed.

I remember walking through a Target back when scene was big, and they had actual black fishnet tights on little girl clothes. I thought Walmart was supposed to be the place for trashy people, but I guess even the middle class is down with the ghetto shit.

Jesus dude, it's just a cute joke. There's onesies for boys that say 'stud muffin' and 'little heartbreaker', nobody sends a jokey onesie and goes 'yeah, that'll make sure nobody fucks your baby'.

Just dress her in a potato sack if you're so goddamn offended.

.. I came in here ready to agree with him but then I saw that his idea of over-sexualized clothes is pink, ruffles, and sparkly. You know, stuff that normal young girls like. "Little Heartbreaker"? Who cares.

I'd be less concerned about some stupid infant clothes and more about the sheer mass of perversity lurking on the internet and social media, Twitch's camgirls, "lewd" OnlyFans accounts, not to mention the pedophiles lurking around and the creepy crossover they have with the so-called "LGBT or trans" subcultues..

I see more girls clothing in neutral shades now.
And you dress infant girls in pink ruffles and boys in mini football jerseys so people can tell what they are.

The examples listed here are not the worst by far. There are truly sickening clothes being made for young children and modesty is usually an afterthought. You practically have to go shopping in thrift stores in Amish country to find clothes that don't show off the booty of a 6 year old.
I look at what my cousin has to put up with for her daughters, and I thank god every day I only had boys.

"Sexualization" is another word whose meaning is completely blurred thanks to morons who overuse it. If I dress my girl with a pink dress with ribbons, am I "sexualizing" her now? Fuck off. The same people who say women dress for themselves, scream in terror as soon as one of them tries to look prettier than average because "tHe mAlE gAzE!!!" Make up your freaking mind.

The sexualzation of young girls is a big problem but ruffles on shorts and pink one side by themselves aren't part of it.

Yeah, the saying is bad, but ruffles & pink are definitely not the problem.
