My suggestion would be to arrive prepared to answer their questions in a very
relaxed and conversational type atmosphere. Maybe with a couple of "did you
know" type statements to get the conversation going.
In my experience, teens respond better to relaxed and conversational (almost
conspiratorial) type discussions than to formally prepared informational
settings. Let the teens set the mood, and follow their lead. The questions they ask
could easily start a very well rounded conversation on how breasts became
marketing tools in the US, and why it is now so controversial to consider breasts
as anything other than marketing tools or sexual objects.
