(10,362 posts)From what I've seen of kids today, at least. The internet made our virginal mysteries seem like a bygone era.
If it were my son getting a lapdance or whatever, would I care? Probably not. It would relieve me if good old fashioned strippers were his outlet, rather than say someone peeing on someone else.
Seeing a naked woman when I was a kid was really something, eye opening stuff. It involved a lot of work and sneaking around. Nowadays there are thousands of naked woman just a few clicks away.
The general reaction is all a bit Puritan for my tastes. The mother was in the wrong, but really what harm was done? I could never pretend to be outraged at something like this, not in an era where everyone surfs for porn but pretends to be scandalized by a nude dance. Half the parents outraged probably have young teenagers surfing porn on their laptops.
That's my feelings on it anyway.
