Question by Pondering Reality: Is sexual imagery in magazine advertizing, and music videos corrupting our youth?
What do you think about designers using models who are under 17 to wear clothing and advertize their products for adult women who are over 35?
Does fashion have any responsibility to uphold morality or social decency, or is fashion immoral by nature?
Is it morally right for models who are teenage girls between the ages of 14 – 17 to pose in sexually provocative ways to sell a product to an adult audience?
Does sexually suggestive advertizing contribute to an eager audience of teen and pre-teen girls wanting to emulate the images they see in magazines, and music videos?
Do you think this imagery leads to early experimentation with sex among teens, and an increase in pedophilia in our culture?

Here is an exerpt:
On one occasion, I went to Germany for a shoot with the singer Ricky Martin, and booked the Brazilian model Fernanda Tavares to be on the cover with him.
In front of the male photographer and team of male assistants, we stripped the poor girl down to her G-string, poked and prodded her within an inch of her life, put her in a Versace frock and finally wrapped her legs around the pop star, asking for an expression on her face that could only be described as post-coital.
Only during a break did I notice her sitting on the floor cross-legged, reading a comic book. She was 16.
