WWHE
No links here– just anecdotes.
I had a very interesting conversation with a 14 12-year-old neighbor yesterday. She told me what the “girly-girls” were wearing in the local middle school. In addition to all sorts of suggestive stuff written across their asses, one girl has been wearing a tight t-shirt with “They’re real” scrawled across her chest. Shorts the size of girl’s panties are apparently de rigueur, too. For the boys, the trend is to wear clothes multiple sizes too large and then to walk around like they just got off a horse in order to keep their pants from falling down to their knees. This sweet girl also claims that there are lots of behaviorial problems at her school. No wonder.
When did parents go extinct?

The words on the backs of the shorts drives me insane — and so many of them, at least around here, have the school sports team name on them! What school system would keep an administrator who would approve such a purchase? But, regardless, what’s needed is not outrage but ridicule — instead of tut-tutting we should be laughing out loud at the preposterousness of these get-ups. |

It really isn’t new though. the sorority girls did this with greek letters back in the olden days when I was in college. |

Oh, sorority girls, those bulwarks of morality, chastity, and piety. At least they were over 18 … (But really, was it a Southern thing? ‘Cause it’s only in the last few years that I’ve seen it up North here.) |

Hey, watch it Bub, I married one of those sorority girls 😉 I went to school in frozen tundra of Northern IN, so it certainly wasn’t a Southern thing. It was, I think a Greek thing, as I don’t remember anybody else doing it. |

Well, the ancient Greeks gave us civilization, so I suppose the modern Greeks can lead the fall … |
