I am glad to see that you just comprehend including the photos of your boys was contrary to your message. Perfect

Description But I still are having issues with your initial message to girls. I'm the father of two young girls myself, so this hits close to home.
1) For one, it seems that you're not wearing a bra.
Umand why is this a problem? Must all women who post photos of themselves online be wearing a bra? How is it that you're so fixated on a girl's breasts that you *notice she isn't wearing a bra*? At what age should we begin requiring girls to wear bras? Or how large should their breasts be before wearing a bra is needed?
Do you see what I'm getting at here? The entire foundation of your proposal is founded on the subjective interpretation of pictures. And I find the breast-fixation especially challenging. But more on that later.
2) Those posts do not reflect who you are! We think you're wonderful and interesting, and generally quite bright. But, we had to cringe and wonder what you were trying to do? Who are you trying to reach? What are you trying to say?
Why do you care? Is she injuring herself? Is she posting pictures of herself taking drugs? If so, then by all means, sound the alarm! But you understand what I believe she's doing? I think she's figuring out her body. And good for her. Because she's happy enough with her body to put pictures of herself online. And opportunities are her friends have seen this much of her if they've ever seen her in a bathing suit. The fact the photo is shot in the bedroom is insignificant.
And it is great that you believe she is lovely and interesting. Figure what now would be an excellent time! You know who gets labeled as wonderful and interesting by the media? Miley Cyrus. That is who. So instead of blocking your son's friend's graphics, why don't you have your son tell her she's wonderful and intriguing?
3) I know your family wouldn't be thrilled at the idea of my teenage lads seeing you exclusively in your towel. Did you know that once a man sees you in a state of undress, he can not ever un-see it? You don't want the Hall boys to just think of you in this sexual way, do you?
And how just is it the girl's fault your sons see her in a sexual way?
You know what's fascinating about being human? I mean, 40 was really old. This is why individuals are capable of replicating as early as 12 or 13 years old. Because that's when humans had to begin reproducing if they were going to live long enough to make sure their children lived to adulthood.
Fast forward to modern times, and guess what? Kids still begin to develop sexually at about exactly the same age as they did hundreds of years ago. But what's different is that we have developed all of these rules and expectations about how children can *express* that sexuality. I'm not in any way recommending that we should let children start having sex that early. But what I *am* saying is that it is completely unrealistic to expect our children to fully ignore their bodies as they are starting to change.
Also have you educated your sons the dissimilarity between state of undress and sex? They're two things, you know. Nudity isn't a requirement for sex, and sex is not a prerequisite for nudity. God created us all naked. Garments is our own individual invention. God didn't mean us to feel ashamed while we're in a state of undress, even if we're in the existence of others.
(They are closely related both involve the practice of nonsexual nudity. Your research will allow you to comprehend the little differences between the two.)
Again, I Will bring out the swimsuit argument here. Listen, I was a teenage boy once. Believe me, it takes VERY LITTLE help to visualize a girl naked in her bedroom. If they have seen their female friends in swimsuits, online pictures aren't going to make much difference.
To conclude, I believe there are a couple of lessons here:
First, educate your sons that women are their equals in every manner.
Second, educate your sons (and daughters) that the same rules apply online as in real life with regard to intimidation. If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.
As an adult, I 've plenty of friends on Facebook who I do not always agree with. But I don't call them names, and I do not block them. Individuals express themselves in different ways.
We should educate our children these matters because most people who are sexually assaulted are assaulted by someone they know either a friend or a relative.
