How much do you think having adult women play teenagers in television shows contributes to the sexualization of young girls
#tbh#like i’m watching PLL#and the relationship between the teacher and the SIXTEEN YO student#and it LOOKS fine#because lucy hale’s ass was TWENTY#but if you put a sixteen year old actress in that situation#you would know IMMEDIATELY that it’s wrong#because she would actually be a CHILD#WHICH SIXTEEN YEAR OLDS ARE#C H I L D R E N
Seriously if people would actually cast young people in young people roles I wouldn’t have grown up thinking we were supposed to be all sexy and grown up looking at that age, and then hated myself when I didn’t. Yes it causes over specialization but it also causes a lot of selfconciousness and stuff
