Too Sexy Too Soon – MTR Speaking DVD

How hyper-sexualised messages harm kids and what you can do about it.

Young people are bombarded with hyper-sexualised messages and images in media, billboards, toys, games, magazines and clothing.  Pornography is invading the lives of young people at unprecedented rates.

In the DVD, Melinda takes us on a visual tour of popular culture.  She unpacks how the proliferation of sexual imagery and messages contributes to a distorted view of bodies, relationships and sexuality in girls and boys, and affects our ability to raise happy, healthy, resilient kids.

"Melinda's presentation leaves audiences reeling.  She delivers her message with a clarity and commonsense without peer." - Steve Biddulph, author, Raising Boys, Raising Girls
