oral sex in local high school

[Tink]

Sorry Janet, the name came from a book about the topic. It was a major controversy when a couple of sex ed teachers tried to use it in their classes a while back. That's how I heard about it.

There's an article on the book here:

OMG!!!!!!!! I had no idea this kind of thing was really going on...I mean I knew they were thinking if they had oral sex they wouldn't get diseases (wrong), but I had no idea they were doing this "rainbow party" thing. How horribly disgusting for young teenage girls to be doing this.

disgusting on both counts. the girls for giving and the boys for accepting. makes me think hubby's right for not wanting to have kids.

i've read serial polls of high school students who believe themselves to be virgins because oral sex, hand jobs, and anal sex don't count as "sex". doesn't help when a former president of our nation fails to recognize anything outside of vagina sex as "sexual relations", ie, oral didn't count.

This is so horrible! Seriously it makes me want to keep my kids sheltered until they're 18! But I guess all I can do is talk to them until they're blue in the face and hope they listen.

It's not just talking to them. It's also being aware of where they are, who they're with, and what's going on in their lives. I believe that the more involved you are in your children's lives the less likely they are to get into trouble. I don't mean keeping the kids busy with activities but being involved with them. Interacting with them. Also, set an example for them to look up to. The time you put into your kids is not time that is wasted!!!

What you're referring to above are called "rainbow parties". The girls are each to wear a different color lipstick so each guy goes home wearing a rainbow on his genitals. YUCK!

If the 60's were called the age of free sex, I dread to think what this new insanity will be called.

Yes Tink that is what its called Rainbow and its disgusting!!!
