Just
Because I Let My Daughter Dress like a Slut Doesn't Give You the Right to Look
at Her By: Janet Marsh Hey,
you. Yeah you, Mr. Shifty Eyes. I saw that little furtive glance you made over
your shoulder at my daughter as we walked by. What, were you checking to see if
youd left your headlights on and my pre-teens barely covered buttocks
got in the way? Or maybe you were struck by a sudden urge to check the price of
a gallon of unleaded gas at the Chevron across the street, only to have your line
of vision temporarily obstructed by the profile of my daughters perky, freshly
blossomed, scantily clad breasts?
What are you, some kind of sick weirdo?
Just because I let my twelve year-old daughter dress like a complete slut doesnt
give you the right to look at her. Sure, the swell of her tanned butt cheeks protruding
from beneath the short-short gym shorts she shortened further with a pair of my
sewing scissors might warrant that sort of lecherous, chin lapping response if
they belonged to some 20 year-old floozy, but just remember this creep-o, I was
still putting that bottom in diapers after Seinfeld went off the air. Seriously,
there should be a sign in front of your house. You shouldnt be able to live
within half a mile of a grammar school or day care center. Freak. Boy, do
you pedophile types make me sick. If it were up to me, my daughter wouldnt
be wearing a quarter pound of makeup and half a lacy camisole with her pink bra
straps intentionally showing for the sake of your existence alone, but her self-esteem
and identity are wrapped up entirely in her nascent superficial sexuality at the
moment, and though Id love to see her find a way to express herself that
was a bit more, I dont know, original than strutting around like the future
backstage semen receptacle for Motley Crues third reunion tour from now,
if I were to tell her to dress more modestly, she wouldnt like that and
might not be my friend anymore, and thats very important to me. Tell
me sir, do you have a child? Probably not, but just for the sake of argument,
lets say you had a teenage son. Now make that son semi-retarded. Now put
him in a Bat-Man outfit licking an ice cream cone by your side in the food court
at the mall. How would you like it if I stared and snickered at him as I walked
by? I bet you wouldnt like it one bit. Now go on. Get. Continue on
the filthy path youre on. Go on and do whatever it is the depraved minds
of slimeballs like you do with the mental images of nearly naked adolescent girls
like my daughter behind closed doors. Just get out of my sight. Ugh, I think
Im going to be ill. |
