Why do they keep making terrible shows directed at girls? This show features what seems to be young women mermaids who are all about fashion and looks. First of all, there's nothing wrong with liking clothes and make up etc. But why is this mixed with provocative and "sexy" looks when the audience is supposed to be little girls? There can be fashion and make up without the sexuality that comes with it. Whenever a male character is shown, they're fully dressed. You can have "style" and not have to be half naked. You can like style without being ALL you care about. Why not make a show about females (or kids in general) who can actually do something more than try to look pretty and crave online attention? We already have so much of this in real life, and it's incredibly damaging. These mermaids do everything they do to get online attention and be liked by strangers. And who's supposed to be audience? Little girls? Inappropriate. Tweeny girls? Still inappropriate. High schoolers? Probably won't buy your dolls a that age, and guess what... still inappropriate. Boys? Still inappropriate. Not because of gender but because of the same reason it's inappropriate for girls. Shallow desperate attention seeking needs isn't healthy for anyone. And hey, why not have boys too? Some boys like fashion and makeup. And when there's a boy or guy on any of these shows, he's fully dressed, so why not do the same with girls? Also, all of these girls have impossibly "perfect" bodies (according to silicone valley standards) that are seriously shallow. All their facial features are also very one-note. No diversity whatsoever. This is just telling kids that this is what someone should look like to be "liked" and it's an impossible task in real life. No wonder there's so much teenage depression nowadays.
