Concern Over Hypersexualisation of Girls

The hypersexualisation of young girls has captured the attention of Atlantic Canadian ministers who are responsible for the status of women.

They are worried about what the effect will be on the girls themselves in how they view themselves and how they are viewed by others.

The cybersafegirl.ca website will be expanded with a new section containing information on the hypersexualization of young girls.

This is an effort to counteract what the ministers see as the hypersexualization of girls who are being bombarded with hypersexual images on TV, in music videos, music lyrics, movies, magazines, video games, the internet, social media and advertising.
