Someone has to get the word out to girls, and their idiot parents, (sometimes they are overworked, worn down parents who just can't endure the girls' obstinacy)that they are displaying their charms not just to the cute boys in 8th grade they are trying to impress, but every pervert, every mentally disabled person, every male who through lack of either self control or lack of mental ability (and there are plenty of them roaming the streets) is one step away from sexually abusing someone else. I do not buy for one minute the lament that girls and women should be able to dress however they want any place any time and bear no responsibility for anything. Unless they are infants or mentally incompetent, they do bear responsibility, as do adults who let them roam around undressed or dressed in a provocative manner. I am embarassed to look at some of them..how would it be for a young man? Or an older man trying to maintain his marriage vows? Or someone with no impulse control who receives one jolt of stimulation too much?

Quit raising girls to be stupid and coy about this. Don't say I said it was OK for them to be raped or abused if they dress irresponsibly. I didn't say that. It is never OK. I will say that everyone bears some responsibility for keeping impulses down to a reasonable level. Males in how they behave and females in how they display themselves. COuld be vise versa too but probably not as much.   mg
