How much should we control sexual expression in teenage girls?

I did when I was 14. One method is to not require them to stand up when they are called on in class or leave immediately when the bell rings. Sexual expression comes (cums?) easily in teenaged boys.

Years later a friend tried to set me up with a girl who had sat next to me in Algebra and might still remember the time I had to unzip and shove it back into my drawers when it tried to escape. Maybe she had fond memories of my sexual expression, but I didn’t think so because at no time in high school had she treated me me with more grace than she would a bad smell.

What the everloving fuck are you talking about?

I’m not sure how the second instance is comparable to people getting hot and bothered by girls wearing short skirts.

Girls often like looking at shirtless hot guys or hot guys in suits, but most don’t really like looking at our junk.

I’ll tell you a little story that you should remember when you reach puberty ;): When you are older and your other head realizes it now has sooper-secrit powers all its own it will seek every opportunity to show off or even escape, even if it embarrasses your main head. This often happens two minutes before class ends, which precludes you from using your normal method of showing it who is boss, and can be physically painful if you are wearing briefs, so you need to sneakily unzip and push it back where it belongs.

Oh, wait! You aren’t Anonymous User and should know about this by now! :smiley:

We don’t get what your story about your dick had to do with the subject of this thread.

I was responding to:

and added an illustrative anecdote that has EVERYTHING to do with young girls in short skirts. Or did you go to high school before or after when skirts that stopped mid-thigh or higher were the norm? :rolleyes:

Uh, is there any answer to that question that will not result in more anecdotes re: your dong? Because if there is, I pick that one.

And how is this relevant to me? :smiley:

Why did you quote me, then? Just not good with quotes?

No, not ever, and certainly not in front of a chick in Algebra class. Christ.

Oh, wait - you must have a huge penis.

I didn’t quote you originally, only after you misunderstood what I was responding to.

Well, you may have been impotent, and I’m sorry to say that. :wink: But accidents happen when you are an adolescent; I mean, there’s a comedy meme based on it. I was extremely careful because I was an even bigger prig back then. I’m positive she saw nothing and simply didn’t like me, though I have trouble understanding that.

No, just one that was more expressive 45 years ago. You’ll be happy to hear it’s less unruly now. :rolleyes:

you could have worn boxers instead dude

If you are over the age of 6 or so, and not mentally disabled, there is no excuse for unzipping your pants and fiddling with your dick in public. Period.

In an emergency, go to the bathroom. That’s what it’s for. Anything else is unfathomably disgusting, and borders on sexual harassment. Frankly, messing with your erect penis while leering at your seatmate is over that line, in my opinion.

As for the OP, if the teacher in the article wants to value girls beyond their hemlines, she should do just that, and quit with the concern trolling and JAQing off. Almost all of the girls will outgrow that sort of behavior. Obviously dress codes should be enforced, but leave the slut shaming out of it. The teacher is as much a cause of the attitude she hates as anyone. Change starts at home.

To build on what Miss Elizabeth said, I don’t see how a girl deciding to wear a short skirt to school is remotely comparable to a guy deciding to pull his dick out in the middle of class and start massaging it.

I also doubt that even the most endowed of male porn stars are so large that they’re forced to do so.

Standing would have made my situation much more obvious and embarrassing. But I know women never adjust their underwear, ever.

Did I say that I was “messing” with it, much less “leering?” No, I said I was trying to NOT expose myself to anybody, and she was the closest person who might have seen me with my hands in my lap and nothing more, but since I was a shy and easily-mortified kid I assumed the worst.

Jesus, kids. I’ve been here for 13 years. Have I ever made any of you think I’m a sexual pervert? Please try to NOT imagine the worst out of me, at least not seriously. I mean, I will feed you a straight line now and then, but that’s just because I have a self-deprecating sense of humor.

See? SEE? THIS is how it’s played! You take it over the top and bring it home with a gag said with a straight face.
ETA: Um, you were intending to be funny, right? Because you did it well. :confused:

Adjusting your underwear is a WHOLE lot different than unzipping your pants and adjusting your dick.

Honestly, I don’t recognize you as an individual by your name, but I am willing to extend the benefit of the doubt and say that in your effort to relay your story in a humorous manner, it ended up coming out wrong and was misinterpreted as being skeevy. To the extent I contributed, I apologize. Your post rubbed me the wrong way (ha!) and I’m sorry.

Nonetheless, I think unzipping in public is wrong. Sure, you say you were just adjusting to prevent further embarrassment, but that’s also what the guy masturbating on the subway will say. Just… no. Go to the bathroom, and buy undergarments that prevent the problem from them on. It’s unacceptable for people over kindergarten age to fondle their genitals in public. I don’t think this is a particularly controversial stance.

And, again, the teacher sounds like an idiot.

In my defense, guys’ junk is a lot more external than women’s, and men’s underwear is designed to easily get it out and put it back. My penis found a chink in the armor and, along with how my pubes were being pulled, it hurt like a motherfuck. I can see your point about skeeviness, but I was young and naive and didn’t know some guys did that, though I’d seen the jokes about guys in trenchcoats and pantslegs that only went up to their knees, but I thought they were just in it for the exposure and didn’t do anything else.

Thank you. And I’m glad you found an opportunity to make a joke. :slight_smile:

Now that we have gotten all the early teen humor out of the way, everyone needs to take this thread in a better direction.

Knock it off.

Yes, a slow, downward wilt seems appropriate.

Ambivalid: stop it.
