When I look through all the postings here, I sometimes see these images of cute young girls posing for the kinds of
pictures that have come to be known as selfies. Just yesterday I saw this one of a young woman - I assume she was a
teen of legal age somewhere, but it was obvious she was young-ish. Then I noticed a date on the image; '3-01-2004.
I thought, if this gal was at least 16, the age of legal consent in about half the places in the world that have legal age to
give consent to sexual acts - federally in the U.S. it's 18, of course, although in several states it's 16, this young miss
would be 26 today, and if she was 18, she'd be 28. Pardon the math lesson, but by that age she could have easily grown
from a bold, exhibitionist young girl luxuriating in her newly discovered sexuality to a veteran slut. She could even, by
now, be a mother!
My own daughter, whom I assume is anything but a slut, had her first child when she was 20; she's 32 now and she's the
mother of three - the youngest about to turn 3 years old.
I mention that because, when Bonnie was 14, we took a trip to Las Vegas. I was a newspaper editor and thought I'd
combine business with pleasure so I took my wife, son and daughter. I was having amazing success on one slot machine
- I eventually won enough to pay for the whole weekend, but that is beside the point. At one point, my wife and I had
ventured up to the room on the fourteenth floor of Treasure Island to check on the kids. When we let ourselves into the
room and what do we see but our 14-year-old daughter with her shirt pulled up to her chin, flashing her pert little boobs
to god and anyone else who happened to have his or her eyes pointed at the hotel.
Of course, she whipped her shirt down quickly and I had a pretty good chuckle. I actually told Bonnie not to worry - she
wasn't in trouble, that in fact, what she did was probably pretty healthy self-expression - that if I were alone in the room I
would likely have done the same thing.
If she knew that picture were floating around on the Internet where enlightened people like you and I could see and
enjoy it I think she would be mortified. The Internet was still pretty new to the general consumer in those days of dial-up
modems and very few Internet access providers - and no hotel WIFI - she probably lucked out. If she did that today she's
have to assume someone snapped a shot of her heavenly hooters and she could probably find a picture of her enl
