This article is written by Kimberly Hall and published on her blog. It is mostly aimed at girls as she starts off by saying "Dear Girls", she also goes on to say that if boys see an undressed photo of a female then he would start to think of her as a sex object and is only good for sexual needs. 

She also states that "I'd be lying if I told you, as the mother of four growing-up daughters, that there haven't been moments that have stopped me in my tracks where my girls and their selfies are concerned. But what I try to remember is this: adolescence is all about shocking the adults around them. And adolescence is a lot about sex, too; one of the ways that sexual attraction is played out these days is on the internet. Teenagers of both sexes have always experimented with their sex appeal, and one of the big differences between our day and theirs is that this experimentation has other outlets in 2013. I'm not saying it's good, and I'm not saying it's bad – what I am saying is that it's something we did too when we were young, just in a different way." which in other words she is trying to say that sexual pictures of females are a part of growing up and even if we disagree with the way they behave we have to put up with it as its a part of growing up and showing the world how much they have grown up to be.
