Coffee and Discussions on Safety, Philosophy, Religion, and Art

What do you want to discuss over a good cup of coffee? Here is where you can do that. But sometimes an old crusty master sergeant and professor wants to have his way.

You might have read this.  Really quite interesting that even today the schools are worried about how girls dress for the prom.

Girl is kicked out of prom for wearing a dress that "evoked impure thoughts"

 The article outlines the event as would a news agency would.  But does it give the complete story?
But what you need to read this link to a blog that was written by the sister.  Well the portal you should enter is through Mad World News @  http://madworldnews.com/dads-lust-minor-gets-thrown-prom/   titled, "Dads lust after minor,..." The title catches one's eyes for sure.  But to read the article and see described how society has created young girls to be objects of lust.  

I am reminded of when Britney Spears came out with the school girl look in the song, "Baby one more time". Here is a girl that if you heard on the radio sounded innocent enough.  However with MTV broadcasting the video you have every guy that ever wanted to date a Catholic school girl go nuts with lust.  I heard plenty of over 25 talk about the video.

The writer of the blog spells out the issues society. (http://www.hannahettinger.com/ )  Now we have her side of the story.

Sexism is an issue.  The way Hollywood dresses and undresses those "teens" on the big and small screens creates an environment of lust.  As they say, sex sells.   And the reason she was booted was because there were concerned dads, is that right? Dads?

My fatherly instincts come into play.  I look at the issue that a young man might.  But there I am really questioning the issue that the "Dads" were bothered by the situation.  Where they bothered for the young men there or where they bothered for themselves?  I have to agree with the Mad World writer's last paragraph, if you are being driven to lustful thoughts, you need to check yourself.  I am not condoning much of the dress I see on the college campus but I do have to check my thoughts.
