I did some research on the subject, and came to my own conclusions on this matter.
It is a proven fact that adds of this sort do stimulate pedephiles in a sexual manner.
Now with that being said; I am left with a few remaining questions...
#1. If it is the case where these images DO stimulate the responses of pedephiles, HOW CAN it be legal, let alone ALLOWED?
#2. Why is it that stores geared tword lower-income families have smut items in their clothing selections for children, when statistically speaking, most victims are FROM lower-income families? Coincidence? I'm leaning twords, NO. Or, should that be a "Hell NO!"?
Now, my most important question...
#3. How can ANY adult, in their right mind, think to make an add, in which a child is put into a sexual light? Is there something about the person developing the add we should know about? Maybe that individual needs to be checked for pedephile tendencies.
Once again, these are just my opinions.

And here's an issue I have swirling around my brain
Ok, so kids in swimsuits turn on pedophiles.
Ok, so half dressed women turn on rapists
Do we take away the ads, and make society in general responsible for the sick minds, or do we make the sick minds responsible for their own brains/actions?
Now, again, I'm in no way condoning the sexualization of children, however, I (me,me,me) don't see a child in a swimsuit and think gross thoughts...now do I think most people here think gross thoughts. It's not the child's fault. It's not the parent's fault. It's no one's fault but the pedophile. And, if we take away the child in a swimsuit, does that cure the pedophile? No.
So, what? We take away all of the pictures of half dressed women and swimsuited children? We cover up all women and children to 'protect' them?
Isn't that what they do in Iran? And how many people here have a problem with the way they treat women in Iran?
