I liked that Kim wanted to keep the younger girls out but Marah really wanted to be in amd Kims sister got her a suit and had Marah walk in on Kim and the other moms and girls. My question is when she said "You got a bang'n body." Was that out of line, or it's just us girls here moment.
shareI personally felt it was a little weird to say to a 13yo.

Melissausaki, are you being serious or having a laugh. Are you having a laugh?
shareyhea me too. I've said to my 12 year olds friends like you look cute or that looks good on you but not you got a bang'n body.

I agree and OT I really hate how Marah's mom seems to push her into every pageant even after Kim says no. I like Kim but I wish she would keep her foot down at times.

What does 'bang'n body' mean in your country? In my mine it is a sexual statement and would be very inappropriate to say to a child.
In the USA it is equivelant to hot or nice looking.
shareI've only just finished watching this episode now, and Kim is in no way inappropriate to me. Perhaps if it had come from someone else than it would be a different story, but not Kim. She genuinely cares for those girls.

Well, seeing that "bang'n" would mean bang as in sex. So saying "I want to bang (have sex) with your body" is a LITTLE inappropriate!!!!!!!
She didn't say 'I want to bang your body'
That's not what I said. I said that saying "you have a little bangin' body" implies that she has a body that people would find sexually appealing. So essentially, its like if someone said "I want to bang your body". At to a 13 year old, that is inappropriate. We shouldn't be looking at a 13 year old girl as having a sexually appealing body.
shareIt's not reasonable to suppose that Kim intended it as a sexual remark. I've never really thought of the expression as being sexual in nature.
It was just a compliment on how fit she was. But I think maybe 'fit' may mean something different in the UK than it does here in the US.
I thought Kim should have stuck to her guns about Marah being too young, if that is what she really thought.
Get me a bromide! And put some gin in it!
I think you may be thinking to far into it. I mean its a regional colloquial thing. I know plenty of people who use "bangin" interchangeably with hot. When I heard the exchange it was no more than a family friend saying that the kid looked good/hot in the outfit. Something we have all experienced.

Considering Kim is and has always been very aware not to sexualise these children and young girls, she would not have meant anything inappropriate.
shareI've heard the word "bangin'" used to describe a quiche that had been served at a party. I doubt the lady who said it wanted to have sex with it. It's like "smashing" used to be decades ago. See also "off the chain" or "dynamite."
