(RTTNews.com) - A long-running complaint from parents is that their daughters are dressing too sexy. Well, a new study shows they might be right, and that the racy clothing might make sex an issue for young girls too early in life.

A study done at Kenyon College in Ohio said that as much as 30 percent of clothing available online to young girls in the U.S. is sexualizing. Researchers added that this leads to the issue of sex being brought to the forefront at a young age.

Researchers analyzed more than 5,600 clothing items and only 69 percent had childlike characteristics. Meanwhile, 25 percent had both sexualizing and childlike features and 4 percent had neither. Only 4 percent were only considered sexualizing.

"Confused parents might be persuaded to buy the leopard-print miniskirt if it's bright pink," study authors said. "Clearly, sexiness is still visible beneath the bows or tie-dye colors. We propose that dressing girls in this way could contribute to socializing them into the narrow role of the sexually objectified woman."
