OFTLOG what is wrong with a little girl wearing a bodice?
Back in the dark ages ----aka the 50's (before political correctness took over and ruined the world) I wore dresses like that. They were based on fairy tale princesses and nursery rhymes like Snow White and Bo Peep. It was a short lived phase to be sure but leotards, tutus and my dance recital outfits were the only things I wanted to wear.
 
I always find it so interesting when folks mention the 50s as this wonderful period or that being PC ruined things. To me, it usually translates that the real loss is that one can no longer directly speak in a derogatory manner to people without consequences or now has to tolerate different unlike the 50s. (I don't think this is what poopsie means as the topic is a little girls outfit). I just find the whole difference in perspective very interesting and it always triggers my ear.

Great post for your 12,000th! :tup:
 
I never said that the 50's were all that nifty. I just happened to be North's age during the latter part of them. I don't have kids---or haven't been around any, but from what I have observed that fairy princess stage is pretty ubiquitous for little girls of a certain age.
I am certainly no defender of Kakes, but I never jumped to the conclusion that she was grooming North to be Bondage Bettina with the dress
As for PC.........IMO it is a form of mind control and so much more complex than no longer being 'allowed' to speak in a derogatory manner sans consequences.
 
Although I most certainly wouldn't dress my future child the way Kim and Ye choose to, the corsets and satin dresses don't bother me too much because she always has a t-shirt and shorts underneath them.

I do like that they don't dress her in the usual pink, frilly, 'girlie' type of clothing.

I specifically didn't charge you with saying the 50s were nifty...just want to make that clear. I understood your sentiment hence not quoting. And I totally agree, PC speak is in fact mind control. All that matters though in terms of PC language is if one is the speaker or receiver of what's being said.

I remember being younger wearing babydoll dresses with t-shirts underneath. I wouldn't dress my child in North's clothing either but that's mainly because I feel kids should be allowed to be kids as long as possible. However, looking at IG many folks are all about dressing their children like mini-adults.

I have to agree. Someone sent to me some cartoons from the 50's that, at the time, were standard. Women were shown as dinner serving bimbos ripe for a slap from the male at the drop of a hat and blacks were in horribly demeaning positions and the brunt of a joke or something with the message that they were intellectually inferior, almost animal like in their place in the world. It literally turned my stomach.

How has, and how do you think political correctness has 'ruined the world?'

I was around North's age in the late 50's but I was the exact opposite. I was a tomboy & hated to wear dresses of any kind, none of that "Princess" crap for me. I can remember in the late 50's & very early 60's, my mother dressing my sister & me in dresses with skirts flaring out from the 3 set of crinoline petticoats underneath & the cuffed socks with lace trim with our Mary Jane shoes, & gloves. God, I hated that!!! Those crinolines itched & were uncomfortable to wear. I would beg my mother to let me wear something else. Thankfully, I only had to wear them to church, weddings, funerals or some event we were required to attend. I couldn't wait to get home & put on a pair of jeans so I could go down to the barn to be with the horses!!!:lol: I think that's why I have always preferred streamline, tailored clothes. I have never been the "fru-fru", ruffles & fussy outfit kind of gal!! To this day, I favor my comfortable jeans over anything else.

Kim Kardashian was in a dark mood on Friday, at least when it came to her choice of attire.

The mother-of-two stepped out in Beverly Glen in an all-black outfit and gave onlookers a generous glimpse of her cleavage in a plunging bodysuit.

The 36-year-old star was joined by sisters Khloe and Kourtney as they went to lunch at Fabrocinis restaurant before picking up a froyo treat at the Deli.
