Trailer for the documentary America the Beautiful 3.
Sixteen-year-old pop stars dance provocatively in sexy Catholic schoolgirl outfits on stage, twelve-year-old models lounge in revealing outfits on the pages of magazines, four-year-olds in bikinis parade in beauty pageants on national television. With a modern American culture that's overflowing with overtly sexual images of children, what is the price we're paying?
The assault of images portraying the perfect "sexy" body is inescapable and inappropriate, contributing to a national physical and mental health crisis. According to the American Psychological Association, the impact this has on girls (and women of all ages) ranges from eating disorders to low self-esteem and body image insecurities. America the Beautiful 3 also looks at how boys, some as young as eleven-years-old, are now raised in a culture of porn, making it increasingly difficult for them to conceptualize healthy relationships and sexuality.
