Club dancers in a viral video rocking school uniforms has ignited a serious debate on the outfit during such promotions.
Even though the video was meant to promote the club, questions have been asked as to why they opted to use the school uniforms and the message it should portray.
Many social media users, many of them being women, have questioned the message that will be passed down regarding female students if such behaviour is allowed to thrive on social media.

“This is a new phenomenom of normalizing child sexualization and pedophilia fantasies . I’m not a moral cop but where do we draw the line between advertisement / marketing and morals ?
When we use school uniforms on call girls to lure patrons in night clubs and make adverts as appeals? School uniforms are not just a garment, they are symbols of naivity, innocence, learning, and dependency.
By using them in adult spaces like night clubs, we overlap the moral line between children and sex objectification. This is actually promoting child sex fantasies which may lead to rapes and defilements.
This is giving predators a field day to mentally socialise children to pleasure and they may lead or generate to actual adventure. This indirectly sexualizes and objectifies the image of prepubescent children to sexual objects to be admired therefore justifying pedaphilia admiration which may lead to sexual exploitation and abuse.
In a society already battling rising cases of Incest , sexual assault and molestations,we cannot afford to play with symbols that prompt abusers to tempt our children’s Naivity. I condemn this trend and raise an alarm as a responsible parent . This is not advertisement ;this is sexual Objectification.” said Hon. Gathoni Wamuchomba
