I love your channel, and I'm simply doing this to help you for the next time you say her name lol. I mean this in the least offensive way, (this is just to help with pronunciation) in spanish J's are sort of like H's, so her last name is pronounced "Trey-Hoe". Just like how Jalapeno's J is not pronounced as a J its pronounced as an H, its pronounced "Halla-pain-yo".
Yes, but the girl will take it to mean “he thinks I’m smart and mature like an adult”, and the guy will even frame it that way to make his list for the 16 year old more palatable. That’s why we have to decode these things for young girls, cuz when I was a teen, I knew when guys said that it was wrong, but I don’t know why.
@@tiahnarodriguez3809 And of course any child would love it when a person tells them that they’re mature for their age. Because when you’re a child, your opinions are put down so much and what you think is belittled and cast aside. For someone to say that to you really lights up your world.
it's so weird how people think 18 is "grown." that's still SUPER young and considered a child to older adults. you're not even fully developed or fully matured yet. it's sickening.
@@imatinyfaire617 There's no definite age, where you magically "become an adult". Becoming an adult is a process that varies from person to person. That being said, 18 year olds absolutely should be able to have full control over their decisions and learn from them. Ya'll Americans let teens have power over literal cars that could kill tons of people, yet are so picky about when someone is "an adult" and should be able to have free will. It's ridiculous.
I agree that the U.S. needs to have one age that is considered an adult. We allow possession of long guns (rifles or shutguns) at age 18, but not pistols until age 21. We allow you to vote at 18, but no alcohol until age 21. We're kind of all over the place when it comes to what age is considered an adult.
I saw sexual comments on a 2 or 3 months old baby and I was so disturbed that it took me like 2 weeks to get over those disturbing comments.... I cant believe creeps like them who deserve to be in jail are roaming somewhere out there freely

I’m 27 now, and I definitely had an awkward phase in middle school til like jr year. lol. I was a late bloomer w everything, but now everyone still thinks I look way younger than I am. And I look different, but better in my opinion, we should embrace every stage of life. You’re only young once, then you have the rest of your life to be a grown up. But it definitely showed me how ppl treated me differently when I looked “awkward” compared to when I “glowed up” I think I keep getting better w age now :) enjoy being 18!

@@charlessynowiec3876 totally. Women's sexual liberation was used as a front to devalue all women and girls and expose them to exploitation. How naive most women are about this subject
Teenage girls have been aging themselves with makeup and clothes for ages. 2016 brows, cutcreases and harsh contour kind of makeup looks were doing the same thing. Same about that early 2010s aesthetic that made teens look like office ladies with peplum tops, heels, statement necklaces and sock buns.
even if a 16 yr old looks 25, that doesn’t give you the green light to project your sexuality onto them. you should ALWAYS ask someone’s age before you pursue them. people use this “girls look so grown nowadays” line as an excuse when they get called out for catcalling and pursuing children.
I’m so glad I was 16 when I was 16… not worried about looking a certain way to meet societies beauty standards. I feel bad for the teenage girls of today really
@@tameragzz no fr, its time we realize that the older we get the more young people are gonna want to look like those in their 20s at the time, and thats how younger ppl are gonna feel the best! But ofc they have to sexualize it, because older people wanna sexualize young women for everything and blame them for it instead of those looking at them with predatory eyes
A good strong family with morals and values, is what a lot of these teenagers are lacking. they see only examples of behaviour on the internet, instead of their own family
And you know what happens whenever you mention this? They get mad. Call you “jealous”, say they can do whatever they want. Insult you and your appearance, but never genuinely discuss the true topic.
I had a Mexican bestie. Yeah bestie. I'm a muslim. And i didn't use to wear hijab when we became friends. But ig after one year of my friendship with her i decided to start wearing hijab. After that... she once told me how she showed my pictures to her male friends and that they liked me a lot and wanted my Instagram id. That's when i told her the whole concept of hijab and how i didn't want any non mehram male seeing me without my chest and head covered. The day i told her that she unfollowed me. I kept texting her but when she didn't reply for a long time i gave up. We were very close. But alas! After our friendship broke she started wearing very vulgur dresses. Still does. Cloths that barely hide her boobs and ass (She's 16). It's sad that she turned into this kind of person. The friend i remember was very cute and loved me a lot.
@@aishafadime4786God bless you girl, i am an 18 yr old Orthodox Christian, Balkan young woman but i highly respect dedicated Muslims and i truly wish you the best!! Your friend’s ego was probably hurt cause she realized that deep down, she’s doing the wrong thing while you are becoming better and better as a person. By becoming more and more spiritually sound, you hypothetically, held a mirror to your best friend’s face and she felt ,,called out” even though nobody called her out. You did the right thing!! She knows deep down that what she’s doing is gonna destroy her mentally and spiritually over time, and that’s why she’s mad that you are choosing the opposite pathway. God bless!!

This is so extremely sad. I'm Malu's age. I remember her come-up, seeing all these insta baddies and wishing I looked like them, wondering why I didn't have curves as a TWELVE year old😭. I can't imagine being a teen in 2023 w these tiktok beauty standards. Girls, focus on happiness. Make something for yourself. Take care of your health, skin, hair & nails and leave the rest to develop naturally!
naw cus im 17 now but i remember being in like 4TH GRADE this boy in my class fully stopped me to ask me why i have no ass UNPROVOKED LIKE WHAT BITCH IM 9 YOURE 9 like omfg children should not have access to social media period... we need to bring back leapfrogs

Same but i was 11 wondering why I don’t have curves yet and why my chest is still flat in comparison to other girls so I was always forcing myself to glow up and grow up it was extremely exhausting. Looking back I feel so sad for the little girl I was back then now I couldn’t care less and don’t even have social media.
@@sanriofazewhen I was your age I was 140 and 5’7”. I had body image issues but I’m so sad that you feel this way at 127 lbs. Please drink lots of water, do not drink alcohol (my biggest regret in the teenage years because it caused a lot of trauma that I still deal with) and exercise. Care for yourself. You are a perfect weight
whats even sadder is the 9 year old boy rapping about fuckin bitches and getting head.. a BABY, not even in MIDDLE SCHOOL yet. the adults around him should be sent to prison
Love how she always has to clarify exactly what she means with a statement she makes bc cancel culture is crazy you will be fighting for your life fr 😭
"Cancel culture" is a thing ignorant/bigoted non-black folks came up with. "Canceling," which black folks came up with, would not apply in this case because she's not saying/doing anything to be canceled for. I hate when y'all use the messed-up interpretations of our slang with us.
as a 15 year old male, i 100% agree with you, its practically our whole generation everyone looks so old, I constantly get made fun of for looking "young" and looking like a "13 year old" yet my parents and aunts and uncles say I look like my age, society puts so much pressure on us and it peer pressures us to make want to look "older" and I've too tried, Youth stay safe, just be yourself, the biggest advice I can give you guys is, Learn to make yourself happy. Dont depend on other people control how u feel , don't follow the crowd
I’m double your age I went through the same thing at 15 people thought I was 12 its annoying take it as a blessing when your 30 you’ll look like a teenager.
Omg me too! I'm 16, and I look like a 13 year old from what my friends tell me for not wearing makeup and dressing up like a "child" just because I don't show much skin. I used to get offended when people said I looked young for my age but now, I take it as a compliment. I honestly don't understand why teenagers want to grow up so fast. We should enjoy our youth.
Same! Im 15 and I still look 12 and its so sad how I started changing my hairstyle in order to look older the beauty standards are really getting towards me.
It’s a product of the fact that we live in an era where now more than ever kids are letting social media make them think they need to grow up as fast as humanly possible. I think it’s dumb as fuck. You have your WHOLE LIFE to be an adult. Your kid and teen years where you find your identity are the shortest section of your life. I think you’re only a teen for like 8 years and a healthy human is gonna hit 90+ easily. And you’ll be a happier adult by finding yourself first. I wish someone would tell these kids none of the shit they do and try to emulate being an adult is acc remotely fun or interesting when you’re an adult, and they’re just being misled by people who want their attention and views. It just seems attractive cause it’s “forbidden” and “dangerous” when you’re a teen. In reality club culture and numerous drugs and “adult shows” and all these trends are mad overrated. And I can confirm cause I’m 21. This shit just looks mad corny once your mind is fully developed and not being manipulated by insta mfs.
@@sadebraimah5962Ig bc I’m 17 and around their age, I would find it embarrassing, my logic is, if I can know right from wrong then why can’t you? They want the attention and they want to fit in, they lack social awareness, and even being 18, you are a CHILD still, u don’t automatically turn into a adult
honestly it feels so sinister and predatory that society is aging these young girls and slowly taking away all the things they enjoy. Might not be any particular person/group’s fault, but we are just letting it happen as a society. No more toys for kids but they get unlimited and unrestricted internet access and we get surprised when they stumble across more adult things and want to emulate that.
Is it society or is it the girls and the ones around them? The entire video is literally showing the choices these girls and those around them are actively making.
I fully agree. I'm 22 and when I was a young teen, all I wanted to do was hang out with friends and play video games lmao. I went to school every day wearing hoodies, basic T-shirts, and converse. So many other girls would tell me I "wasn't feminine enough" or accuse me of being a lesbian because I didn't want to wear makeup and dress like they did smh. I just wanted to be myself and have fun and I wish I could go back to those times cus adulting is tough lol. Shame kids want to grow up so fast now
I'm 19 going 20 and I still struggle to understand how do taxes, loans and other adult stuff works. I can't even function without my mom's help. To see these underage girls dressing up or wearing makeup to look like an adult just baffles me. Also, the parents turning blind eye???!
@@babymoneybby no ones saying you have to be 18+ to wear makeup or lashes. It’s just weird to see them trying to look like a grown ass adult when they’re barely legal. You can wear makeup without looking like a grown adult 💀
These 14 -16 year Olds are ,portraying 24 -26. Insecure as hell to be wearing that much makeup and looking like it's 2 AM time at a dance club. They may think they are powerful, but they are being used up. Internet and video lasts forever. Someday these girls may want to get a reputable job or have a man who doesn't just want them as a temporary sex toy.
😭😭 What's happening to this generation? As an 18 years old, I wish I could go back to being 12, not the other way round! Being an adult is cool, but embracing your young age is divine. You don't get to be so innocent and free after childhood.
Social media happend. Teenagers acting and dressing like se 0xy adults is a thing since the 90s. While consuming content of Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera majority dressed and behaved normal, expect the embarassing desperate cool clique.
As an insecure 16 year old girl, this video made me feel more accepting of myself. I had a hard time wondering if there was something wrong with me because I didn't look like my peers. Many of the girls in my school visit beauty clinics and some of them had their noses done, which I think should not happen, at least at their age. Thank you for making this video!
i feel very identified with your comment, this video simply made me see that it is not necessary to look like this or have to worry about things like that, it also makes me understand my parents who sometimes i questioned why they restrict me some things like those but they are my elders and they do it for my good :)
Teen years are short . Adult years are way longer. You have the rest of your life to be an adult after 20 …enjoy being a kid now. Idk why young girls are rushing to be women so bad. Im 23 and im glad i enjoyed my youthful teenage yrs. Acne, weird clothes, braces, and lots of fun without alcohol or sex
They do it because that’s what they see being praised on social media. I’m 28, and the same stuff that happens on social media was happening on the street. Lil’ girls being praised by boys and grown men and envied by girls and women for presenting sexual due to the attention they got. If sex didn’t get the degree of attention it did/does, girls and women wouldn’t put in so much effort to present this way. I’m grateful for having an awkward teen and college experience too. I believe it saved me cuz my classmates who were focusing on being something they weren’t are not in places that I want to be in. Baby mommas, druggies, in jail, etc. Peer pressure and getting into things we shouldn’t have consequences that people usually find out the hard way.
I had no sex but I got a little more alcohol during summers of my sweet 16 but I did not touch alcohol for 2 years after that. And I do not drink alcohol that much after that. I only drink alcohol occasionally now.
It's thanks in part to these men in their 20's and 30's wanting young fertile wives to make babies with. There's apparently a whole thing now where they don't want you if you're over 20 something and it's disgraceful! As if our worth is only our fertility...it's so wrong and truly disgusting.
Just because they post a few suggestive photos on social media to gain millions of followers and brand deals and acquire generational wealth at the age that most of you are in college or working a low wage job...doesn't mean that this is all what they do? They understand the target audience and the strategy. In the case of Bhad I do agree that her mother groomed her for personal gain, it is more often than not a woman doing that.
It shouldn't be such a hard line for people to walk. Kids are always going to try to grow up too fast. They're going to explore their sexuality in awkward ways. But the issue is that back in the day they didn't have access to put it all up online all day every day with incredibly revealing clothing, sexy dances, and being exposed to literally all sorts of people. Some of them are indirectly making money off it I'm sure (sponsorships). It's definitely too much too fast. You can be progressive and sex positive without endorsing that kind of adultification. The parents need to step up and start adding parental controls. When I played playstation all day and night my parents put limits on it. It didn't kill me and it didn't make me go off the rails. It's possible to set boundaries without abusing or traumatising your kids, man.
Yup, especially when you hit the teen years you want to grow up faster and want to be treated like an adult. But it is up to your parents to guide you on the right path by watching what you're posting online, watching what you're wearing and just being present in your life. And you're right, what makes it worse is that they are posting all of this to MILLIONS and exposing themselves to weirdos. And all of these girls are already making money off of what they're doing too so you're spot on. It is def possible to set healthy boundaries but maybe because their kids are making money they do not care to stop them 🤷🏾♀️
Girls with healthy authority figures (and a healthy respect for those authority figures) that set good examples for them as children do not grow up like this. If you notice these are all hood girls or girls with poor if any parental figures that set little to no boundaries. Sorry had to say it but it’s the environment. There’s a reason why some girls have hobbies and goals at 16 and some are desperately copy and pasting the instagram aesthetic for an ounce of validation for strangers. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be mature and grown up for your age but the meaning of being grown and mature will be different from person to person and it’s based on the examples they saw around them growing up since childhood.
It might have to do with "globalization" and what some people out there expect teens to be like in the USA as well as recent immigration patterns. Many Hispanic migrants start families young, on TV there are endless examples of this (like that awful Velma show), and in cultures where women are erased they're basically seen as high quality trash and therefore not deserving of respect. Add that with parental negligence and it sets the stage for exploitation.
Adult women are literally walking around screaming about how they are "empowered" by being sex objects these days. So obviously young girls are looking at adult women and copying them. If the adults in society have low morals that is going to trickle down to the youth that is where they are learning it from. The whole sex positivity thing is a BS cover up to push the real agenda which is p3dophilia and conditioning women to be sex objects from a young age. All of this is for the sole benefit of men of course which is what happens in patriarchal societies. Women really need to start deprogramming themselves to stop trying to appeal to men and then teach their daughters the same thing. That is the only way we will ever be free.
I feel like the baddie aesthetic got worse when (specifically) kylie jenner got a bbl, lip fillers and all these cosmetic procedures when she was only 16! A baby! I cant believe this is normalized.
@@sophiahale8 sure, 16 isn’t a baby, but it is a child or teenager. It’s not an adult. Theyre not grown. They don’t make the best decisions and they don’t understand the consequences and impacts of certain decisions. You sound like you just wanna blame someone and don’t want her being a child getting in the way of that. Teens make stupid decisions all the time. Thats not just a coincidence. It’s because of their hormones fluctuations and that their brain isn’t developed yet. The brain doesn’t finish developing until 25. Kylie was a child or at the very least, a teenager. She wasn’t grown and shouldn’t hold the same amount of responsibility as an adult should. Her mom allowed her to get her lips, breasts, and BBL done. That’s on her mama for letting her teen daughter make those choices at such a young age. Her mom had to sign off on it.
I was born in 2005. I can admit that I was HEAVILY influenced by the girls around me to want to look older and to act like it as I was undesired and bullied for being a kid! By the time I was 15 I was in full blown baddie mode wearing skin tight dresses with a beat face it was all bad smh now being 18, I look back at that time in my life with so much disgust and sadness cause i didn’t even do it for myself but to be accepted and valid to others…. I was raised by my grandparents so they were to old to understand that none of that was okay because they know that it’s the new generation. I Now currently struggle with tons of issues revolving around my appearance and inner self because of this generation having unrealistic standards. I grew up wayyyy faster than I should’ve as I feel like I’ve been ripped of my innocence but no young girl should want to grow up fast or feel the way I do 💔💯
Awww you’re my sister’s age❤ Im 26 and I went through my baddie phase a little later than yall at 19/20/21. I would not step out of the house unless I had a beat face, a buss down 26 inch+, or a fit that ate the girlies up everytime 😂. It got so bad that I ~refused~ to let anyone see me without makeup and I literally don’t even have acne. I wouldn’t even go to the grocery store without my baddie aesthetic on🤦🏽♀️ Life was great , but I just became very plastic and I began to only attract plastic girls as friends and it made me uncomfortable. I also started getting into unnecessary drama because people started to see me as like a ‘baddie’ and other girls started trying to ‘humble’ me or try to take the men I talked to. Which made me go even deeper in the aesthetic because I unfortunately made it my identity and that’s sad. In 2019 my mom basically intervened and FORCED me to go a month without makeup, fake hair, or fake nails. I was in SHAMBLES ! I felt so insecure, I thought everyone would think I was ugly and not like me anymore, and I was so insecure everywhere I went. But literally, that month was the beginning of me finally seeing that the raw and real me was just as good and it’s about what’s IN me and not on me. To this day I still will take month long breaks because social media will literally over influence me if I don’t even at my big age. 😂 But I’ve come so far and I’m still going strong. I just hate the pressure society puts on us and the unrealistic standards of beauty that we break our backs to attain even though literally, our appearance shouldn’t even matter in the first place. I hate this for all of us.
born the same year (2005) donated my barbies the minute i turned 10 cuz i thought i was “too old” it’s a huge regret of mine. wish i would’ve enjoyed being a kid longer and tbh i blame my first ipod touch that gave me access to insta and youtube for my need to ‘grow up’
Their needs to be laws in place to protect children/teens who are internet famous, they have laws for child actors but not children who are internet famous and I think that’s a big part of the issue as these parents will exploit and sexualise their children as it makes them money, if they weren’t able to profit off it I doubt they’d be so happy to do it.
Exactly right! I can't remember the state offhand but they recently put an order in place for children who make income online. But that's one state... we need a federal guideline .

I remember crying like crazy when I saw people younger than me on tik tok look older than me. I was like what is wrong with me. It gotten even worse when I saw girls irl look like full ass adults. I kept wondering why I look so young, I was bumped out and tried to look older as well but I still looked pretty young. Then for me looking younger now seemed like I was ugly.
I'm 30 now and they still asks for my id when i buy alcohol (we can drink at 18 y/o here in europe) lol, and i used to HATE that i look 10 years younger than most people my age when i was in school, but now it's the best thing.

Girl do not be insecure because of that, i’m 20 and i often get mistaken that i look 16/17.. sometimes i even attract teenagers friends. But how beautiful 😍 you will look so young when your older, so many people desire that! ❤️
Last year my friends posted their kids prom pics on FB and my jaw dropped. These teenage girls were dressed like 25 year old women in a Miami night club. I couldn't believe the parents bought those dresses. I don't care what the style is, kids need to dress appropriately for their age. Mini dresses with deep v necks and side cut outs is not age appropriate for a 16 or 17 year old.
It is wild to see what some parents let their children wear!!! My middle child is 11 and looks 15 and can easily look much older when dressed in certain clothing or wearing makeup...I tell her all the time she does not want the attention that comes along with anyone thinking she is 16+ and that I'm sorry she has to worry about things like bending forward and seeing down her shirt bc she's already so developed but she does. Dress your children modestly PLEASE...there is no need to sexualize your child!!! Let them be children...I can't imagine the insecurities these children will have when they become young adults and aren't used to seeing their face in its natural state...
A black woman on RU-vid makes prom dresses, and she was criticized for essentially making club and stripper outfits for high schoolers. She’s talented, but she really had teenage girls in revealing dresses. When she saw that we were concerned, she told us that the parents said it was ok. I was taken aback cuz in what way is it acceptable to let these girls look like “whoas”. I’m surprised they didn’t get dress codes by the school, cuz those dresses were showing things that didn’t need to be seen.
My husband, kids and I went to mineshaft one night and it happened to be homecoming in my city and there were a dozen girls in skin tight, impossibly short dresses and hooker heels and heavy makeup everywhere. They were constantly pulling their dresses down since their booties kept falling out due to the length. Watched one girl struggle to play a bball game and jump up and down. I couldn't believe their parents let them leave like that. There were a few girls with classy beautiful gowns but most looked trashy.
Yeah, and who raised her that way? You don't feel bad for her abuse because the abusive adults in her life just so happened to also impress racist ideals into her? Nah. She was a young girl, I can only imagine a CHILD saying they don't feel bad for a CHILD just because they MAYBE said something racist. You are clearly a child and if you are an adult, get a life and stay away from children.

The issue with posting names like these is the named person assumes everyone is jealous and thinks they are winning because of internet traffic sent to them, like Eu*ena.

These underage girls are busy acting like they're grown adults, and it's creepy as hell. Even here in South Africa, it's slowly but surely becoming a trend. I pray that they should not fall victim to this nonsense.
the adultificationof young girls is so true omg. It's that phrase: boys will be boys, but girls will be women, when they just wanted to be girls. We need to let the children to be children.
It their parents with money that are allowing their young daughters to dress and act grown . It's the hollwood parents who think this is normal not the majority of our society who find it disgusting what parents with money are allowing their young daughters get up to.
Travis Barker should be ashamed of himself! I've seen comments that he's left on Alabama's Instagram pictures. Most of her pictures are very inappropriate.
Travis Barker may enjoy his daughter being an uncensored deplorable offensive rapper who dances in lingerie. Travis Barker had a wide who was in the sex industry, posing naked in men's magazines and porn then Travis Barker cheated on his wide and is now with Kourtney Kardashian- so what do you expect?
As a 16-year-old myself, my age group is fast isn't false in that I realized recently when I was in my Pure Math classroom it was supposed to be a two-hour class but ended up being a free period everyone was doing whatever my best friend and I, we were watching a movie such as Mr. fantastic fox and this one girl in my class told my friend and me that we are still childish to be watching cartoons for kids at this big age, you can get made fun of if you dress any normal like a teenager if you don't vape, drink or if you don't have sex or date when you don't do any of that that then it seems that you're odd. I always wanted to be a teenager since I was eight years old I imagine things like going to malls, singing karaoke in the car, sleepovers, and yes of course drama since I hung out with my older cousins who were born in 98 and early 2000's and would hear every tea about school and seeing them as teenagers I couldn't wait to have my car, getting a job and have a little boy crushes and doing childish things like going to the park playing Tag hide and seek my friends and I still play childhood games, but we get the ick looks and get told that we're not acting like "teenagers" I hate that my age group are trying to act and dress grown like you can't even pay taxes or know how to buy a house and telling me that I'm childish for watching a "cartoon" this is where they got me messed up Mr. fantastic fox is not a cartoon it's stop motion animation that's childish to me to be a that of a low level I will act grown within my maturity level 😘 SIDE NOTE: I've been cat called a lot so yeah, I will be a child and act like a child because I am one remember Teenagers = middle child you can't like a 5-year-old of course and you can't act like your 22
It’s a shame that people call you childish for watching cartoons, just to let you know I also watch cartoons!😂don’t let people try to rush you to grow up because being a teen is a fun time! I know it does come with its challenges but it’s a time when you are allowed to be dumb and make stupid decisions and just to live without having too many responsibilities. And unfortunately grown men love to cat call young women even if they are minors😒I’ve gone through it too. Just always be safe and use your intuition. Enjoy being 16 because it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity!♥️also thank you for watching and commenting!
i understand you completely! Like watching cartoons are fun, why not? I get told that i don't look like my age just because i dress in more baggy clothes that don't show my figure or wear makeup
I’m a 30 year old in a month and my partner and I still watch cartoons…. We love animated films and cartoons. There is nothing wrong with that. Ignore those idiots!
i’m 25 and me and my best friend still have spongebob marathons and quote scenes like they’re gospel, my boyfriend is almost 30 and our favorite movie this year was TMNT: Mutant Mayhem. Never let people make you feel “immature/childish” for staying connected to your inner child. You’ll need to feed that inner kid with joy and fun because once you’re an adult, tapping into that energy will have to be a choice. The world stops being so naturally whimsical, and the curiosity can dry up and cynicism seeps in, but if you keep feeding that little kid in you that loves silly, cringe, inspirational and imaginative stories, being an adult doesn’t have to be so bad. Take it from me a 98’ baby who’s gonna be watching reruns of adventure time until 2050
As a 17 year old I agree💯 it’s so disgusting to see these “Adults” allowing these youth ladies to dress any kind of way to so call “express themselves” It’s way too grown and disturbing. Besides there being creeps it’s just basic self respect. You can look cute but still act your age. Not showing too much skin, wearing too much makeup, cursing, getting a wig etc. you can also see that most of these ladies have their legs opened when posing which could be sexual or mean something could be going on. I wish that their were more young girls like me that could have self respect and look at reality.
This whole epidemic is really sad. I’m 22 and I feel like I had just made the cut off in my teens before it really got bad. I did care about makeup and figuring out my style, but it was never to this extremity of wanting to actually look older. Even my 9 and 11 year old step sisters are asking for the most bizarre things like anti wrinkle cream!! :(
Please tell them everyone is using a filter to pretend to look like someone else and the horrors of plastic surgery. Nobody looks like Botox/Plastic Surgery Hollywood/Kpop naturally and it's boring to look at since everyone is trying to look the same.
A couple RU-vidrs have addressed the fact that children have started asking their parents for anti-aging skincare. This has been a trend since children have trashed Drunk Elephant displays at Sephora. This year especially, we are seeing children put down expensive anti-aging skincare on their Christmas lists due to what they see being promoted on social media. Most derms say that anti-aging skincare shouldn’t be introduced till age 25-30+ because it’s unnecessary at a younger age and some actives can ruin your face if you use them too early without the supervision of a dermatologist. A normal kid skincare routine is cleanser and moisturizer with spf in the morning, and a teenager skincare routine is cleanser, serum or acne treatment, moisturizer, and spf in the morning. Eye cream, wrinkle cream, retinoids, etc shouldn’t even be on a kid’s mind.
I know I would be a good mother, and am strong enough to face any adversity with my hypothetical children, but I’ve been aware of certain issues in the world, and I just can’t do it. This world is crazy as hell, and at this point I think the right thing to do is to not have kids, cuz wtf is this? 💀.
You can have children just do not allow them to be on social media especially pre-teen. Monitor the time they are on the internet and what their intentions are on the internet. Educate them and even send them to private schools. Limit and monitor what they are watching on tv as well (: sounds like a lot but if it means to protect your child I think it’ll be worth it. When they’re adults hopefully they make the right decisions (:
I’m a 13 yr old girl and I’m even worried about future kids and even the kids in my generation it’s so sad seeing all these kids I grew up with already getting “active”,smoking drinking and all ready looking much older than they are it’s so sad.
I saw this in Lil Tay’s instagram, these men were talking about how she was “so hot” while she was dressed as Britney spears in a skimpy outfit. I commented on it saying that she was still a minor and another man commented on how “she’s hot” and he’ll “buy her onlyfans when she makes one” It’s disgusting how grown men and women lust for kids😢
Not you being scared of men so you added women in the last sentence 😂, and yeah it's true, men really objectify women and strip them of everything so they can only do only fans
the adultification is KILLING me!! i see those young girls in sephora buying Drunk Elephant and go nuts bcs they're literally 10 buying products for 30+ yo women!!
If your age ends in teen, you shouldn’t be able to post/do provocative anything anywhere ever… This is so sad. One day these girls are going to regret growing up too fast, being carefree, bills free and just being kids. What’s beyond scary are the groomers, predators, and ppl who want to use and make money off these girls. Looking grown and being young and dumb is a dangerous combo.
As a teenage girl, everyone around me at school is already acting so grown up, all are having interc**rse, smoke, drink, go to parties and I just feel like such a outcast because me and my small group of friends we actually are quite childish and act our ages, we’re just 15 but all these standards are being put on us I don’t know what to do atp
I think it depends a bit on your highschool, I'm 21 and I was in AP heavy classes and knew many band & theater kids and while plenty of people vaped and smoked weed in the bathrooms, there were still lots of us who were just chill. I think "nerdy" areas tend to have more people like this, maybe look at the science clubs, kpop, and the like for more friends? Also not everyone who seems grown up is snobby or will make fun of you for being childish, they're a bit intimidating but can be cool people who won't pressure you into being like them :)
Same here, my friend from another school told me she smoked and drunk at a party, meanwhile at my last party of one of my friends, we played hide and seek in the woods which was so fun
I think the most important thing is who are you doing this thing for. for women, it's important that we do things because we want to, not because it would make us “look good” for others. So just do whatever you feel like doing and try to overcome peer pressure. It’s for the long term good.
As I 50 year old woman, I am going to say what my generations say: "When I was young... " 🙂but seriously, world today, especially all kinds of media, pushes extremely sexual and narcissistic "values" (let's call them that in quotes), which mostly damage most impressionable population: children and teens. It's ridiculous! Looking perfect and always having a tone of make up, perfect lips, nose, butt, being overly sexual... none of that will bring you any real value or happiness in life. You may be shortly popular on social media, but probably not, and that's it! Society is pushing all the wrong things as value: being obsessed with looks and surface values, being terrible narcist (this all goes for men too, for example so called "alpha males"), being obsessed with "easy life", surface glamour, raw sexuality even if you are still a minor or you are not that sexual at all in reality, material crap, nothing of real value. Childhood and teen years are short, enjoy being child, being teen as you can. You have a lot of time to be adult one day.
as a 16 year old it's crazy to see how kids MY age look and act, I feel like a toddler next to them. but I've realised i'd rather look my age and take life step by step then try to force myself to be and act like others do. i also don't have any family pressure, so i don't have to act grown, its so so so sad to see and i always help my friends who need a place to stay or someone to lean on :)
YESSS as you should, don't allow yourself to be pressured into all these things, I'm an 18 year old and am only now dressing up just a bit but I definitely will not allow myself to be pushed by this "movement" so I commend you for that, keep being original and the amazing friend you are ✨!!!
Woah you are incredible intelligent for your age. I wish I could of taken some of your insight back when I was your age. Sometimes the bad stuff going on with our younger generations over shawdows all the good. So it's a breath of fresh air to see a lot of you enjoying the age you are and not trying to grow up so fast. Plus being a kind friend it's hard to find that sometimes at your age. I'm glad you can be their for other teens that need it. Especially if they our having family issues you even realizing how grateful you are to have a good family is amazing. Sometimes it's hard for teens to see the good they have. I know I looked at so many things negatively at your age. Thank you for being you
you are SO RIGHT about how turning 18 doesn't "magically turn your maturity into adulthood" and it's so sad cuz there's this insta influencer (otknoharuka) who LITERALLY just turn 18 and now she's a stripper??? and she gets praised for it by literal GROWN ADULTS in the comments everytime she posts her "job". oh and mind you, some of these adults in question are fellow influencers who knew her when she was only a minor ! but what's more ironic that she's japanese & lives in japan so if she were to turn 18 about 1-2 years, this would have been completely iIIegal for her since japan only lowered the legal age to 18 from 20 in around 2022 i think? it's disturbing to even look at her page, i can't believe nobody in her family is saying a goddam thing cuz she will a 100% regret it in years...
I WAS NOT EXPECTING TO SEE SOMEONE TALK ABOUT HER….I HAD TO UNFOLLOW BECAUSE SHE WAS POSTING… whatever PICS AT THIS POINT 😭 it was just very surprising to see but she’s a adult/legal and that’s that I guess and she’s posted her mom before on tiktok and her mom used to be gyaru so I could see why she would be ok with it if she is…(not being funny or anything it’s just gyaru is usually known for opposing the beauty standards and standards for women in general)
How sad. Now she is going to waste years of her life being a stripper. She is going to wake up one day at 30 and realize she has no real life skills and accomplished nothing substantial besides materialism and living her life to serve men who don't give a sh!t about her.
Sadly the age of consent in Japan just was raised to 16 years old. Before that it was 13… in Japan teenage girls are able to work as “hostesses” even having them wear their school uniforms to entertain clients. The legal age you’re talking about is the drinking age. Sadly there is a normalization of sexualizing young boys and girls here.
she’s not a stripper, she’s a hostess which is a very popular job in japan. she’s said many times she’s not a stripper and doesn’t strip for men. she just dresses up and talks to them for money. i’m not saying that it’s completely okay, i just wanted to clarify bc im sure you wouldn’t want to be called a stripper when you aren’t one
I mean the way you word it make it seem like they're doing something sinister 😂, yes it's not good but damn, women and girls are held to crazy standards
Watching the Danielle section of this video actually got me teary-eyed. Seeing how she was se*ualized as a minor and had to dress in really revealing clothes vs. how she dresses much more modest in the clips you showed of her as an adult just makes me want to cry. I hope she can heal and I also hope that her mother lives miserably, like, how can you do this to your own child?!
Exactly, I remember critizing Danielle so much, I used to say she was an attention seecker and wanted male approvement, but now I realize that it's all her mothers fault, she even presssured Danielle to have sex with her ex boyfriend, she got pregnant and had to deal with commiting an abortion all by herself because she doesn't trust her mom enough, she basically sold her daughter virtually to have money and keep a luxury lifestyle, that's insane and disgusting. It's makes me so sad that a young girl had to go through all those things, now she is realizing how wrong was that and how she had been manipulated
@@spiderchic7 I don’t think she realized that yet. she can’t get into terms that her mother was at fault in her upbringing and exploiting her. I honestly feel like maybe in her 20s once she finally moves out of her mother‘s place. She’ll realize everything. by her responses and comments she still in denial. I feel bad for her!
I'm going to be 18 in march, it genuinely makes me sad to see young girls think these beauty standards are normal for their age. I never really enjoyed wearing makeup or even shorts out in public when I was younger, it made me so uncomfortable showing skin Infront of strangers and it still does. I have major respect for you Nk for making this video, more young women need to see this.
I feel bad for younger gen z/gen alpha teens bc I'm 21 and while I tried to wear makeup in high school there was much more forgiveness in being bad at it and overall cringe without worrying about being mocked online.
I'm gonna turn 18 next year in October and yet I don't have enough money to have those *"glow up"* people the same age as me has... I actually have tried doing skin care routine last year but I can't buy them anymore due to our financial problems and such, focusing more on essential products rather than skin care products.. the only thing I do is wash my face with soap every night, put on some lip balm and lipstick (sometimes) when going out... Honestly I feel so self-conscious and insecure with how these teenagers present themselves and have full package of Beauty (+ body image issues since I am a fat girl, it's hard to be a teen nowadays.)
I think childhood is so important. We have our whole lives to focus on sex, and partying and looking like a baddie. Being a child is such a big blessing and it’s sad to see kids… not being kids :/ and worst of all, being exploited
imo these girls very obviously look like minors with heavy makeup, and the type of attention they get makes me sick. if you can't differentiate between a 20 and a 16 year old, you shouldn't look at this demographic at all!! agree with all your points, this sexual culture does terrible things to young minds. i used to think i was ugly compared to my peers, but it just wasn't my time:( i can't imagine how tough it is to raise a young girl right now, bc no matter how hard you try, and there will always be some creep, some online trend, or a misguided peer who may shame and manipulate her for being " too childish". also, bella hadid's appearance is an entire separate discussion! her mother possibly made her get the nose job and allegedly fostered EDs in both daughters bc she's just twisted like that. no one deserves a parent like this
Yup they look young but just with a lot of makeup! But I’m some photos I can’t lie they literally look 25😭and me too I used to think I was ugly compared to my peers when I was in middle school too but I look back and realized that wasn’t even the case I just wasn’t as invested into my looks as they were, and that’s ok! I can’t imagine how hard it is to raise a young girl right now especially with social media! Whew chile…
@@NkirukasWrld I go to school with these type of girls. And I can’t speak about or I’ll be called a pick me, but genuinely worried about the stuff they put on their faces and wear. It happens more out of school when we hang out because of uniforms, but oh lord it’s not decent for the public at all
14 is the new 18 to a lot of these girls (and boys). I remember working in a very high end clothing store and a group of young boys coming in on their smartphones, they knew all the latest hype brands. I asked them what their favourite brands were , they said, givenchy, heron Preston, off-white , then I asked their ages they were between 12-14. Then I looked at one of the boys mothers as if to say “these kids are too young to be hypebeasts” 😅 But that’s the thing, they aren’t too young, it’s becoming the new normal. Girls are learning the latest makeup and fashion trends aged 13-14 because kids live on the internet today, they want attention, and the internet teaches them how to get it. They quickly learn adultifying themselves gets them more clicks, likes & followers and that endorphin rush is so addictive. Data also shows 1 in 4 minors are discovering p*rn*graphy by age 11. 😬 kids just grow up faster when they’re being raised by the internet.
As a 14 year old teen I can confirm, nobody in my school looks their age, they want to look like influencers as much as possible. The vast majority have major physical complexes that lead to trying to remedy them with major measures. For example, many girls eat little to try to be skinnier. There is also a lot of pressure at school, if you don't dress like the people on social media, they exclude you and boys tend to sexualize girls. The norm is to be perfect, and if you're not, you're weird. It is very difficult to live a childhood seeing the look of everyone else who speaks badly of you if you are not like them. Obviously everyone already knows what porn is and they don't hesitate to make jokes about it all the time. It's like that and if you don't adapt you'll be alone, so even if you want to try to have a normal childhood, if you're not like the rest you're not going to make friends. Personally I try to stay a little away from all this, but it's not easy and you have to act a little like the rest unless you want to be excluded or bullied. I hope that the case of my school is not the case of all of them. In any case, good luck to all teenagers, try to enjoy your youth as much as possible and find friends who accept you as much as possible as you are (I don't speak English well, I did the text with the help of Google Translate so there may be errors)

My aunt used to teach me how to act like an adult woman and she used to dress me in a grown way when I was only 9 years old.. & because of that, as a 9 years old kid I used to be sexualized a lot. Fortunately my mom found out and stopped all of that shit.. but it's really sad..I'm 18 now and even though I'm an adult already but I still consider myself a minor and actually the beauty of youth is being free.. I would never want that thing happen to me again even as an adult cause I fucking care about myself
i’m 21 and i’m embracing youth for as long as possible, i’ll have all the time in the world to be a hot woman later, but right now i just don’t care about all that
Don’t let the legal age limit convince you you’re an adult. If you were still getting permission slips signed a few months ago, i remember THINKING I was an adult at 18 but FELT like a little girl. It was conflicting and I see why.
Right when they look back at it they’re gonna feel stupid Ik when I look back at pictures when I was their age 12-15 I’m 18 too mind u I didn’t dress inappropriate but I had that awkward phase a lot of kids don’t have now. So glad I didn’t dress like this not trying to shame them tho 😂
My mom also did. She would dress me in a "sexy" clothing when i was a kid. I mean even if a kid dress like that,they shouldnt sexualize them but... It still made me uncomfortable cuz those looks like a grown adult clothing
I spent my teenhood having people assume I was 18 or older, but it was because I was taller than average and I dressed more old fashioned. I never dressed like THIS though or tried to look like this. I was also stick thin and stayed that way. No BBL or lip fillers! I am so grateful my parents were supportive and encouraged me to embrace natural beauty AND my age.
The sad thing is, if we call it out...we are called the sickos saying "why are you sexualizing her" and they say we are the problem. People have tried to stop it, but others whine "its their bodies, we are not giving what the man want" when its like "you still are" they go "NOO ITS OUR CHOICE!"
I'm 17 and I've been feeling embarrassed for dressing "childishly" and scared of being called retarded or something just because I don't look like I'm in my 20s. Being one year away from 18 makes me feel like I need to rush everything, or I'm not good enough. Since last year, I don't feel like a kid anymore.
You are still so young, trust me you won’t begin to feel like an adult until MAYBE your late 20’s. Enjoy your youth and do what you want, people will not judge you except those who are insecure and are a bad influence.
Don’t rush your year. I just turned 18 four months ago and I’m happy I lived my teenage life normally. Don’t let anyone look down over you and say you can’t wear something you love. I dress up in pastel colors and show off my favorites such as wearing Sanrio accessories or clothes. Don’t let anyone define you. Be yourself and embrace to those that dislike you for whatever stupid reason. 💓
13 year old here. When I was younger, I'd pretty much be obsessed with male validation, but thanks to a bit of self discovery and realization, it really doesn't matter any more. Ladies and gals, if a guy/girl does love you, you won't need to change yourself. Nowadays I hyperfixate on Hello Kitty, pull all nighters, oogle at fanfiction, browse for random shit online, draw, and sleep. Lowkey like being a teen, don't be ashamed.
Literally one of the best and MOST NEEDED videos everrrrrrr. Thank you for making sure that this stuff gets out there and is talked about. I don’t know WHY the crowd always says that we’re over sexualizing these girls, when in reality… it’s the crowd themselves who are pushing for it. Protect teens and kids!
im 18 and I've always gotten the "you're so mature for your age" statement, I thank the lord and my parents that I was allowed to be a kid. I hate this generation so much lol.
There is a lot wrong with this generation, yes, but saying you hate it is kinda…..well. Do you want to be in a generation with more War? No internet at all? No rights? What generation is better?
Fr bruh I've always been big chested so I was getting catcalled before I even got into middle school (do better, men) but my mom went everywhere with me and threatened to lock up any dude who came too close. I love her for that.
I'm 19 and I don't wanna grow up LMAO just thinking about how I'll be completely independent in 2 years exictes me but at the same time it scares me. These influencer girls are really missing out a crucial part of their lives sadly.
@shoesinmysoup nah this, I don’t wanna admit it but I highkey hated turning 18 because it seems like nobody rlly cares about bad stuff happening to you unless you’re a minor
as a 16 year old I am so against this whole growing up too fast era. I see everyone around me, even my little cousins, dress, act, say and do things I would never do when I was their age. They’re all in relationships and see the world so differently then I used to when I was 9 or 10. I always try to keep in touch with my inner child, especially having a little sister. I don’t want her to grow up to fast, I want her to enjoy her childhood. I want to enjoy my youth too😭. I guess my priorities are different and my surroundings as well. I am Latina and rn the whole stereo type is the copy and paste full makeup, but I’ve never liked that for me. but we defiantly need to put an end to this whole growing up phase. I miss when kids were innocent and there was no pressure to look older. 😭
yessss im 16 too and latina and don’t wear makeup LMAO but i do notice other latinas at my school love staring at me, because i don’t need makeup! it’s also ironic how all the compliments i get are from girls who aren’t latina 😭 i had a girl tell me once that i have really nice facial features and omg that made my whole day 🥹 but yes jealousy is a disease sadly. the fact we are so beautiful and sometimes girls be wearing the whole copy n paste look bc that’s what guys like when they say they like latinas so they do it for their validation is sad 🤦🏽♀️ i don’t have a younger sister but i have lil cousins and i’m honestly so sad and it’s scary how fast they grow up now. tell me why my 6 yr old cousin asked for a iphone, skin care, y un iphone pa navidad 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ my heart broke 😫 but please do protect ur lil sister at all cost 🥲
"I usually like exploring different perspectives but when it's serious topics like this.... nah. this is my perspective." Thank you for saying that - we can't always agree to disagree. some things are just wrong and i admire you standing by that point!
The way people treat the difference between a girl being 17 and a girl being 18 is disgusting and I agree it’s insane like as if it’s such a big difference when it’s not. And it’s the same thing from 18 to 19 it’s- it’s just so weird.
@@anyone1111 im 17 right now. I don't want to be 18 but I do because I want to be an "adult" but when i become one I will probably want to become a "kid" again
You wont feel any different at 18 but society would expect you to have matured 30 years and believe you understand the world (which you have not) it would be like being 17 just now you have to think like your 30 and act like it too
Yes, it is arbitrary. But if it was 20 it would still be arbitrary. Teens are supposed to be learning how to navigate the world as adults for when they turn 18, not coddled until then so that they are like overgrown helpless babies.
As a girl that grew up with everyone trying to be grown,my adult years have been spend fixing my brain chemistry and trying to be modest in a body I once thought was the only thing I had to offer,realizing that I had more beauty in my smile and a plain dress than I had in heavy make up and a tight outfit, not shaming anymore if you love dressing like a baddie, just saying my healing process and the lessons it brought
yes in my early pre-teen / teen years I was around girls who dressed too old for their age and thought that was the norm and I was the childish immature one in appearance. even now at age 19 I still feel like I look 12 next to some 16 year olds 😭
I literally! No I’m 20 and I’m more modest because at 13-18 I felt like I had to be more sexual to get guys to like me and to get attention and to just be validated in my existence.
@@georginak5836 When I was 18, a woman was in shock that I looked so young (she thought I was 14) compared to her daughter who was the same age. I didn’t say this out loud, but in my head I was like that’s cuz you let your daughter dress like a “whoa”, and she really did.
This is such an important video. I have a teenage daughter and the fight to keep her age appropriate is terrifying and exhausting. Thank you for this video and I hope more women follow your lead and speak out on this.
Omg I’m surprised you didn’t include Aya Tanjali in the video. She’s been acting grown since she was 13 and her parents don’t even seem to care since she’s posted videos about her parents asking her for rent money. But the thing that’s caught my attention the most was not only the fact that Ice Spice allowed her to dance inappropriately in her music video despite knowing her age, but when she went to a Sxc Redd concert recently wearing a str**er like outfit (And I’m pretty sure Sxc follows her on IG as well and knows her age), and invited her on stage to participate in a twe*k competition, and obviously people recorded it and at the end of it Sxc asked who everyone thought won the competition, and Aya got the most cheers which for whatever reason made Sxc Redd pay this minor. I’m going to be honest but I truly think everyone around Aya doesn’t care for her well being if they allow her to post the things she does.
@@spoiledddbrattt I was disappointed but not surprised especially since the night before this whole thing went down, she made a tweet about a teacher complaining about how parents are allowing their 5yr olds to listen to her music and quoted the tweet telling her to “stfu and play skee yee”
I'm 27 and often told I look young for my age, but I wonder. Is that really the case, or do teenage girls just look older than me now? This issue has been growing for a while. Remember the trend where older siblings would post pictures of themselves VS their younger siblings when they were 12/13/14 etc? It was "haha teens don't have an awkward stage anymore!" and now that statement is very true and not funny at all. Also, anyone else notice that age-appropriate grown women who dress this way are being told they're trying hard to seem younger? I'm seeing women in their 30s-40s who look like this, being told to "dress their age". Huh??? Society tryna make this normal for teens and weird for adult women.
Yessss girl 😭❤️ I'm 24 and everyone I meet keeps telling me I look 16...I always thought I just had a younger looking face but maybe it's the teens today actually looking older 😭 Never thought of that. Seriously tho it's weird to see how surprised everyone is when I tell them my age💀
as a teacher, i’m SICK of going to work and looking younger than these 8th graders doing full faces w lash extensions. i 100% understand the urge to want to look drop dead gorgeous all the time at that age, i would’ve killed to look like they do when i was 13 but now that i’m 23, i am so insanely concerned for them
i thought i was a bad person for thinking its weird for 13-16 year old girls to dress way older than we actually are..its always "its just clothes" "you're a weirdo for thinking like this" but why does no one see an issue with 16 year olds walking around with their butts out..
it's because liberal "feminism" has completely warped society and been co-opted to primarily appease men. And the women who speak out against it are called bad feminists despite representing true feminist values
As a girl in highschool, I really appreciate videos like this. Naturally I’m still experimenting with self-expression and more ‘grown’ things like makeup, and commentaries help me know where the boundaries are. So thank you, ‘cause it’s a hard balance to keep. I’d say to anyone else my age not to be scared to experiment, and don’t be scared to hold onto ‘childish’ dress or whatever, either. Value childhood while you can & be so so safe online.
I’m 17 and at my age I still watch cartoons, read “children’s” books and play outside etc. This year (my senior year) I realized how many of my classmates have been adultifying themselves like crazy, including the men! It’s almost like they have no influences in their lives besides the things they see online; Seeing so many of my male peers not even care about college and immediately jumping into the “street life” or watching the girls I used to play with in elementary school get pregnant or go clubbing while being underage is just insane to me! Last year I fell into a deep depression because I felt like I was immature and spending too much time doing things that was weird or off putting to everyone else , I tried doing makeup and buying wigs but I didn’t like them at all, I also went through a bad case of bulimia because I was so caught up in the idea of needing to have an hourglass figure and looking a certain way. I also felt even worse whenever some of my own friends would try to frame me as bizarre because I’ve never been in a relationship 🤷🏾♀️ I just want to put it out there that nobody regardless of their age should try to change who they really are just for the sake of validation, it’s never worth it! Be yourself and do what you like to do.
Wow I'm so glad to hear someone else say this! Im 17 rn and I've been having a crisis due to the fact that i don't feel as mature as peers. I'm seriously not into the clubbing and transition into being independent as much as others are and i feel so bad about it😭. Like i still feel like im 14 idk😣
Keep doing you.. I played with Barbies until 12 and still watch cartoons especially the cartoon movies and i’m 40. People always tell me how young I look and act. You’ll love it when you 40 like me
Last year, I saw Alabama at a Coachella after party and I remember being so confused as to why she was there bc I knew she wasn’t of age and it was a 21+ event.
I’m 17 and omg the pressureeee😭 I feel when I see girls my age or younger looking so perfect and ig baddie like it makes me feel some type of way uk 😅. But I always remind myself that I’m 17 , young and still growing. There’s no rush to grow up and expose my body through inappropriate clothing and exaggerated makeup for attention. I’ve learned and is still learning to enjoy these young teenage days of mine. And sometimes I’m shamed by ppl my age group or made fun of for “acting my age” and ngl it hurts….. sometimes 😂😅
Girl fuk those people you will be a better woman in no time. I use to have girls like that on my back and now let’s just say the face is aging quicker. And now they need more make up
Girly enjoy your youth, study, hang out with friends and stay off social media ❤. Try to find friends who think like you. I'm 25 and I was under the same pressure when I was your age. I really tried for a year or two and then I was like "f this." Found a great group of friends, we hang out and play board games, watch movies, go on little trips and we really don't care what other people do. I wish you all the best❤❤❤❤
I'm so scared for young girls. I was taken advantage of as a teenager and it left scars. And these girls are definitely being taken advantage of one way or another. They can't see it due to need for validation or want to seem mature. Which is normal part of teenage years. You are much more than your body and your value is much greater. Please don't fall into this trap, since it was created by those who want to abuse you
Hurts my heart to see you've also experienced it. I hope you're feeling better now and I hope your words reach as many teenagers as possible. Much love and light to you and thank you for being outspoken about things we were taught to hide 🩷
Being 17, who considers themselves mature for their age, I’m at the point where I don’t trust the words of any man, and I don’t let myself be a pawn to any man, I’m confident in my own thinking and self worth, which is why it’s unfortunate that many other teens don’t
Good for you!!!❤ I'm 28 and I wish I had this mindset at your age. It took me until just recently to realize this. Take your time and learn as your live!
That's why I never liked the black beauty standard. The constant pressure to look like a 28-year-old stripper at 14 was too much for me. The constant self-inflicted hypersexualisation to feel beautiful in the eyes of colorist men, while other communities celebrate the youth and cuteness of their girls.
Man sucks, i remember how i always looked younger than my age and in 5th grade girls who hit puberty early were sexualized so heavily. Large boobs and butt, alwyas getting looked at. I thought thats what i was suppose to look like that age.
As a 16yr old I really felt this. So I do tend to adultify myself because of today's standards but not to this extent. And sometimes when I'm with certain of my friends I really find myself taking a step back and reminding myself that 'girl you're just 16 calm down'. I truly wish we didn't have to do this just to be appreciated by others, acknowledged by others just for your 'mature appearance'. Some of the girls that you mentioned here, some of my school girls, the popular ones actually look exactly like that. And the rest of us feel so insecure and immature.
I remember being 17-18 and cry bc I didn’t look like “an adult”. I was really skinny and still had the body of a teen (bc I WAS A TEEN) and seeing girls around me and on social media made me feel like I was lacking or “behind”. I’m 23 now and I have a lot of empathy for the pain I was experiencing, there was and still is so much pressure for girls (and boys) to fit a mold. And no matter how we look at it, I feel like it’s gotten even worse for teens now. My heart goes out to them and I pray we as a society learn how to value more than appearance. P.S. If any teen girls are reading this, just give it time. My body was very girlish and skinny up into 20-21. There’s videos out there talking about a “second puberty” and as silly as that sounds, it’s very true! My body has developed into a more womanly figure, my face looks different, I feel like a different person mentally. It seems that women experience this in their 20’s. I’ve talked to other women about it and it’s very real. All this to say, don’t worry, you’re going to feel comfortable in your body at some point, you’re brain doesn’t fully develop until you’re 25, and in the long run the human life span can be up into the hundreds. You’re still so young and full of life, not even a quarter way to 100. I know it’s not going to stop the insecurity or stress but it will get better!❤️
@@allye4228embrace or do something about it ! I’m only 21 so I can’t speak much but I do know that if obese people want to do something about their weight for the better , they will eat healthier and work out ! That’s just an example :)
@@allye4228 love your body bc it’s the only one you get. It pumps your blood, lets you see the beauty of the world, taste yummy foods. Nobody lives in your body but you ❤️
seriously this! I was desperate for the slim thick body aesthetic that was booming from like 2016-2019 when I was in high school and it made me feel so insecure about my very regular, very TEENAGE body. now I’m 23 and love my body so much. I can’t believe how much pressure I put on myself when I was a literal kid.
In an odd way, I’m glad I grew up as an “ugly duckling,” it forced me to find inner strength and self respect before blossoming into the woman I was meant to be. Like even though I don’t always feel 100%, people tell me I “glow” and not lilw “omg your skin is glowing” but they say my personality glows. That’s something I couldn’t have imagined as a kid, I thought only beautiful people glowed.
You made so many great points in this commentary video. I love the way you said it's a parents responsibility. I was in this same predicament as a 14-17 yr olds. I looked so much older. Now I'm 26, and look younger! I stopped wearing revealing clothes and dramatic makeup. 😅 It's sad thinking back all the things I experienced because I was acting grown. If I could take it all back I most definitely!!! Would 💯
Thanks for your comment! Your 26 that’s still young!! It’s important now that you’re older you can laugh about it. A lot of us want to grow up faster during our teen years so don’t blame yourself!!
Watching your video is making me thinking on how Beyonce daughter Blue Ivy was dress durring the Renaissance Tour i firmly bielieve that Beyonce wanted her outfits to be pratical, confortable and age apropriate... and i like how even though Blue Ivy is a litttle more in the spotlight now she looks like a 12 year old, she wears just elevated luxury version of the preteen version of the normal preteen.
I remember being sexualized by adults when I was as young as 13, which is wild because I never wore makeup, showed skin, or presented myself in those ways. I was busy being a kid. I cannot imagine what it's like to be young in 2023 when it is considered normal to age yourself up, and for young girls to celebrate their 18th birthday by making bank on onlyfans from the thousands of predators just waiting for you to be "done cooking" How comments like, oh she's 17 that means she's legal soon ;) is a normal mindset is beyond me. There's more pressure now to be "beautiful or sexy" than ever.. It's truly an age of; if you want to be successful, focus on your looks. It's heartbreaking that so much of a girl's value is based on appearance.
This whole video was simply facts. I'm 16 and dont wear any makeup, havent had any procedures done (many get things like rhinoplasty and lip fillers at this age) i have acne, pigmentation, dark circles and simply just want to live life as a kid. I dress like a 16 yr old, act like it, and look like it, all because i know our youth is so temporary and eventually we will have to grow up anyway 🤷♀
Thankyou so much for this. As a teen, who doesn't look like those social media influences AT ALL. And do have many insecurities (cause obviously). Thankyou so much for making this video. Im new to your channel and this half an hour of just hearing you talk was like a therapy to me.
Do you know whar hurts me? When despite being 16 years old i get sexually harassed by men old enough to be my father every single day and i cant do anything about it. Especially as an african everyone just says they're men just ignore them. I hate it. Society is just soo sad😢
