Strange, can't find any downplaying. You know it's not only the movement that matters but the right body to do them. The same movement of a child and women have different effects, or would you think the same if it were stick figures?

I don't think the bodies and the movement are the only factors. The camera zoom, cropping, and background music is also relevant.

I find a zoomed crop slow-pan camera shot on an 11 year olds crotch in jeans pretty strange. After having seen similar shots in numerous music videos involving adults, I tend to think it's sexual particularly when the background music is sexually charged

I don't think "it's not an adult body, so it's not sexual" is a very compelling argument all-up.

These similarities to music videos is a intended.
