Another, "Oh Crap," Parent Moment

Hat tip to BJ over at OneProblem for this little gem. It's an article from New York Magazine about the whole girl on girl movement among high school (and younger) girls.

Crap. Remember when parents only had to worry about guys hitting on their daughters?

I went to big high school a couple of decades or so ago. There were almost 700 kids in my class. But for the life of me, I can't picture a scene like this one going on the hallways. (Fantasized about the chick part of it, yes. Hell, I was sixteen once. But actually see and experience it? No way.)

Just another example of the liberalization of our culture. I'm not talking politics as much as the "if it makes you feel good, do it" mentality. What a load of crap.

I think the whole pseudo-lesbo thing is less about loving other girls as it is about girls feeling the need to go above and beyond to turn on boys. It's about very low self-esteems. One girl in the article said it best:

"It's either to please a man, or to try it out, or just to be fun, or '’cause you're bored, or just '’cause you like it . Whatever."

To please a man, she says. That's the one out of her list that rings most true.
