So, I've been thinking about Justin Bieber, as one does. I will never understand why we can't just let tween girls love whoever they want without making them feel stupid or without ridiculing the objects of their affection. I said it about New Kids on the Block when Erin and Ashley were 10 years old, I said it about NSYNC and all the other pop folks of the late 90s, both before and after I fell in love with Lance Bass's stupid face, and I said it, or at least *felt* it, because I was 11 at the time, about the Beatles. What does it hurt? Who cares about musical talent or credibility or hairstyles? The tween girl is hard-wired to respond to a certain kind of cute, non-threatening yet sexually attractive archetype. Just let them, without all the judgment, for goodness sake.
