Winx club

[Short Melancholic]

So how do you guys feel about this show? I think their skimpy outfits are horrible, all the characters are just stick people who barely wear any clothes at all, it's no wonder girls are starting to have low self esteem at younger and younger ages, if even cartoon characters are shaped perfectly and wearing not a lot of clothes. Not to mention it makes it seem ok to strut around in skimpy clothes. Like I can understand something skimpy ( like a pair of shorts) every now and then, but all the time, like they do, seems degrading and like they're starting girls off young in being expected to show off their bodies.
Not to mention they're not proportioned naturally at all.

I remember watching The Winx Club years ago on FoxBox/4Kids TV on Saturday mornings. When did it come back on the air?

Most cartoons and anime creators put girls in skimpy outfits with weird body proportions. Remember Total Drama Island on Cartoon Network? One of the girl's shirt was ripped off. Although it was censored, it still was there.

Even Barbie has weird body proportions with shrinking clothes, and she's been around for over half a century.

Simply put: sex sells.

I guess it never hit me how extreme it was.
Yeah it's back on the air I kind of like it too it's my guilty pleasure -__-
I've gotten more girly over the years is all.

It's weird, but, I have a Winx Club obsession XD I think putting them in skimpy clothing all the time is a sort of way to teach girls to be confident and believe in themselves; I think that's what the show is all about. It's like saying to just believe in who you are, embrace the things you love instead of hiding them, and believe in your abilities. cat_4laugh

Sure blame the show for kids feeling the way they are. No it has nothing to do with people at school or their own family. It's the show that is at fault! emotion_facepalm

Though I do agree their outfits are too skimpy and the transformation scenes in my opinion are just so uncalled for. The way it happens with them half the time sticking out their asses and doing all these sexual like moves when their new clothes are appearing on them is just not called for! I am shocked that this show is aimed at little girls considering that it is about high school to college girls and of course the transformations.

I don't get why they all have to have boyfriends. I bet either in this new season or the next, Roxy is gonna meet someone too.

It's been years since I saw Winx Club, they remade it didn't they? I used to really like that show.

I can see where you're coming from, but you have to think that the young viewers of the show don't think/see things like we do at our age. To them it really is just a simple cartoon with pretty clothes, that is if they care about the outfits.
