YOU'RE INVITED TO A SLUMBER PARTY ?

A reader sent in a link to this article about a book being withdrawn in Spain.

A Spanish guide for young women that includes frank talk about sexuality was withdrawn by the Women's Institute of the central northern region of Castilla–La Mancha after a storm of controversy erupted over some of its more suggestive content, which included encouraging girls to try out mutual full-body massage, Agence France-Presse reports. For its proponents, it was supposed to be a woman's pocket guide to relaxation and discovering one's inner self. But Paloma de Castro, chairwoman of the regional Federation of the Family, called the guide a "perversion without precedent" that "incites the practice of homosexuality among girls not sufficiently mature to have any kind of sexual relations."


It occurred to me after reading that paragraph, that such activity might take place at a girls slumber party--the kind of party that takes place when young girls are just discovering what sex is all about.

When my daughter was young it became obvious that some parents allowed their children to watch movies that I would never even consider allowing her to watch. Which meant that when she was invited to a party, I had to find out if a video was being shown, and if so, what video, before I could decide to allow her to attend. Sometimes getting that information required a phone call to the parent of the girl having the party. It was somewhat embarrassing.

I'm sitting here trying to fathom how I would go about making such a phone call to find out if there would be lesbian activity at a slumber party. What on earth would you say?
