I'll give this a shot.
Now I don't know why teens are going more for surrealism, but I think the reason you see it more is because those that supply it notice that the teen population is buying more of it so they make more.
Like the issue with sex in the media...at first it was hardly seen if at all (it was taboo) here in the states. But then the younger generations started a trend (back in the 60's I believe) and now you see such things almost everywhere. But somethings they take too far...like recently...a clothing company started making thong underware for girls ages 10 - 18 (if I remember the age range right). Exscue me....10? 15 yes...13 - 14 is pushing it...but 10!? That is way too young for that type of clothing!
Thing is kids want it...so they make it for them. Kid's these days are trying to grow up too fast...and current role models like Britney are not helping any. (May like some of her music but that doesn't mean I like the image she protrays...)
Thing is...I haven't a clue as to stop this current 'sex trend'.
Oops....what started out as an example turned into a rant....sorry....
