    Nude scenes/nudity is not a problem. Nudity is completely natural and should be normalised. The problem is in sexualising children, whether they’re nude or not.

    It’s important to not conflate the two to avoid reinforcing puritanical views around nudity.

        Yes, and it’s literally based on a true story that has happened a hundred times over and the film portrays this as a horrible thing.

        Like the story is repellent and horrible because it is supposed to be. This is like a criticism of Schindler’s List because it portrays a genocide.

        It’s funny because there is plenty of horrifying and deliberately salacious shit that they did with Shields that would merit more criticism. How about her fully nude appearance in Playboy at ten?

          This is like a criticism of Schindler’s List because it portrays a genocide.

          It’s like criticizing an article about Schindler’s List with the bolded caption “Find out how many kikes can fit in an oven”.

          It’s funny because there is plenty of horrifying and deliberately salacious shit that they did with Shields that would merit more criticism.

          The quote directly below a photo of her and Woody Allen is more than I needed to see, thanks.

          I can’t imagine volunteering my child to take that role personally. They don’t have the maturity to understand the subject matter
