Is this art or is it bordering on pedophilia?

My wife showed me this video. The girl is 12 years old. She is on a reality show called "Dance Moms". She says a lot of people are up in arms about this, saying it is bordering on child porn/pedophilia.

I think it is pretty cool, tastefully done.

This is not the first time this girl has been featured on a Sia video. she is a professional dancer. I think the objection is she is dressed in a flesh toned leotard. But that is common dress for expressive dance.



I think the problem is with the pedos not the dance.

Anyone who sees this is bordering on child porn/pedophilia has issues and needs to seek professional help IMHO. "I'm grossly overweight so images of food should be banned!" That was a very expressive piece of art in my books preformed by a very talented young dancer and to see it any other way points to demons in your closet...Gotta go, there's a bible thumper at my door!!!

Not pedophilia. Definitely constructed for some type of shock value though...
But these days it's gonna take a lot more than this... and the dancing /music/ expression is super impressive for someone so young.
