I've never seen kiddie porn in my life, so I have no idea how it looks. However, given the number of 9-12 year old girls in China, compared to the number of paedophiles, I still think that a photo of a little girl in (IMO) unrevealing children's underwear should not be shocking.

I assume you mean the Miley Cyrus photo. I have seen it. It's not nearly as "bad" as the one in the slate article, but still inappropriate.
I've now looked it up just so I can have my own opinion. I think it's all a storm in a teacup, but I can understand why Disney feel it is a sexual image and therefore inappropriate. I can't see any comparison between this and the Chinese billboard. The two different issues are about men who are only sexually excited by children compared to men who might find a more womanly image of an underage girl attractive.

I have a school photo of my class when I was 12. I was away from school on photo day, but from looking at the picture - and from memory - I would have made it three girls not wearing (needing) a bra had I been there.
