12/03/2004 Entry: "Huntsville, Alabama kids today"
"Thomas' 13-year-old daughter, Monica, said both boys and girls wear the bracelets. The game begins when a boy notices a girl wearing a bracelet. He then tries to break or snap it off her wrist. The game works the same when a boy wears the bracelet.
"If successful, the person wearing the bracelet is supposed to perform a sexual act that's determined by the bracelet's color.
"According to one Web site, black represents sex, green represents outdoor sex, orange represents a kiss, red represents a lap dance and clear is anything goes."
Bracelets carry hidden meaning. Mother: School isn't responding to kids' sex game, by Renee C. Lee, Houston Chron, December 3, 2004 (via skimble)
Goddam kids today. Why, in my day, we had to walk 11 miles in the snow to get outdoor sex.

this all stems from a report in the NYPost where an eleven year old in more makeup than I wear in a year informed the public that these bracelets were definitely tokens for sex and then acknowledged that neither she or anyone she knew (all of whom she'd sold bracelets to) had ever had sex.
Arrant bullshit, I think.

Well, damn, Julia, I was hoping for Southern teens running amok and having way more SEX than anyone in the history of the Southland.
Sigh. Another dream lies shattered on the shoals of modern life.
Goddam kids today, at least get some, however you do. Safe sex, use a condom, no means no, drunk sex is a not good sex, both of you must be conscious, etc, und zo on.
Oh, thank you God, I'm not young anymore!

Happily I saw the story before the notice came home about the bracelets from school and HM's teacher told me that she'd had to confiscate her bracelet.
The wonderfullest part was explaining to HM why, which the school neglected to do.
My favorite part of the whole Post story was the part where little Tammy Faye's mom (did I mention that the makeup covered far more of her than the rather abbreviated undershirt-like spaghetti strap top she was wearing in the quarter-page picture in the Post?) waxed mournful about how this sort of thing is why she spent the extra money to send her kid to Catholic school.
Her kid, self-reported, had been making a nice profit selling the bracelets to her fellow students. As tokens of sex. If a boy grabbed one off you, you had to perform.
I'm trying to imagine the form The Talk took, or is some day going to take, in this house.
