Little Girls are Sexualized--New Research Study! Shut Up!

Girls who are 6 years old see themselves as sex objects.   Huh... Let's use psychological principles that are tried and true to make something happen, then when it happens let's FREAK OUT

 and talk about setting up task forces to discover why it happened!  
Classical Conditioning is one of the best known and effective ways of changing behavior.
Simplified, one can "pair" one thing with another and give the second thing qualities of the first. For example:

 Pair" drinking beer" with "being popular"---like most beer commercials do, [which kids will see about 500,000 times before age 17],--
creates a conditioned response. The general effect is that one equates having a beer with the good feelings that come with being liked, being attractive, dating hot chicks, being part of a group of friends.... etc.
Imagine
a beer commercial that portrays a bewhiskered slouchman in a mustard-stained t-shirt 
 yelling for his curler-haired bathrobed wife to bring him a schlitz... (aint happenin)

like me NOW?
Another form of conditioning (Operant conditioning) is simply pairing reward or punishment with behaviors to increase or decrease them. (this is how chickens and pigeons at the fair are trained to play the piano...)
So-- being sexy, dressing sexually, being sexually available:
IF it makes a boy/man spend time with you, if that is the ultimate reward for male-figure-starved little girls, --if it makes mommy happy or friends admire you--the behavior should increase.

If acting with modesty or calm morality or (shudder) in a chaste manner brings the punishment of scorn, laughs, and insults--by media, TV, peers-- that behavior should lessen. 


 [Don't forget-add the moderator/mediator effects of  good parenting and intelligence and other factors]


We are reaping what we sow. Like part one HERE and part two HERE

excerpt: "...Lead researcher Christy Starr told LiveScience the girls likely equated sexiness with popularity, which comes with “many social advantages.” Starr told the publication she was surprised how many 6- to 7-year-old girls picked the sexy dolls as the ones they wanted to be like..."

Surprise!!  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/9407978/Teenagers-can-be-corrupted-by-Hollywood-sex-scenes.html
excdert:  "...Watching sex scenes in Hollywood films can make children more promiscuous and sexually active from a younger age, a new study has suggested. ...Psychologists concluded that teenagers exposed to more sex on screen in popular films are likely to have sexual relations with more people and without using condoms.
The study, based on nearly 700 popular films, found that watching love scenes could "fundamentally influence" a teenager's personality.
The researchers, from Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, concluded youngsters were more prone to take risks in their future relationships.
They also concluded that for every hour of exposure to sexual content on-screen, participants were more than five times more likely to lose their virginity within six years. "
