I think her generation will look at that sort of thing the way I look at Looney Tunes. The cartoons can have horrible charictures of black people, but I know that was a representation of the times, wrong then and wrong now, and not a reason to dismiss the art entirely. Sexism is going the same way, happily.My kid will watch Breakfast Club some day and she's gonna wonder at the unenlightened era in which it was created.
