Miley Cyrus sorry about pics in Vanity fair  

Yes its a shame that someone so young took these photos, she will sadden alot of her fans. We all thought she was wholesome, goes to show you doesn't it. I believe she is way too young for these photos.

Well I don't want anyone to misinterpret anything I am about to say. I think that the pictures that came out with her and the boy are not so bad compared to what other 15 and 14 year old girls are doing. Although she is too young for that and should have been more careful with what she does. She is a star and there are a lot of people that would like to take advantage of her. I haven't seen the pictures she took for Vanity Fair and all I heard was that she was naked or something? Or half naked? But if she was half naked or naked then that is still way too young to be doing something like this. I mean she is 15! There was a picture of the girl who is in Gossip Girl where she was dressed in her panties and a tank top and she is only like 15 I think. I mean I know that they are stars but they are too young for this. Nowadays kids this age know more than most adults know.

I did a web search on it and I saw one of the photos. It is of her pare backed holding a sheet over her chest. I personally don't think it is a flattering picture at all in addition to being inappropriate for someone her age. I don't think it is as big a deal as people are making it out to be. She is a young girl who was taking direction from a photographer that she admired. It is not like she ripped her top off and said to take the pictures like that.

...There's a technique called "grooming" that pedophiles use on their victims (yes, we just learned about it today, thank you). One definition says "Grooming behavior is intended to make the victim or potential victim or victim's guardians feel comfortable with the molester and even interested in interacting with him." And here's a characteristic of a regressed child molester: "They place pseudo-adult status on their victims and then view them as they would their peers." ...(1)

Ok, I looked for the photos. Took a bit. Obviously, someone's keeping a lid on them. What I saw looked like a shot of Miley with a towel wrapped around her. I've seen far more skin than that on girls her age. Your average swimsuit, for instance.

I think this has been completely blown out of proportion. Hyperactive knee jerk reactions. Sad, really. I hope people realize that Miley does have to grow up someday and she's going to want to be seen as a woman when that happens. 15 might be a bit young, but in some places 16 is considered old enough to "give consent."
