Why We Rated This iffy for Ages 13–14

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    Disturbingly traditional male-female role models; wonderful girlfriend-power message too!

  • Violence:

    Nothing obvious.

  • Sex:

    A fair amount of very sexy innuendo.

  • Language:

    They know how to speak like ladies.

  • Consumerism:

    Very commercial sound, but no blatant product placement.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Nothing obvious.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About #1's

Parents need to know that this greatest hits collection contains some very sexy lyrics and runs the PC gamut from feminist to, um, "post-feminist" (in other words, lots of boy-toy sexiness).
