I went downtown to get a prenatal massage today, and it was lovely; just what I needed. As I was basking in my post-massage glow, waiting at the bus stop, and eavesdropping on the women sitting next to me, a family of tourists paused in front of me

See, this is why I have four hard rules for my daughter's attire. She CANNOT buy anything if I can see:

1. Asscrack
2. Asscheeks
3. Nipples or
4. Boobs*

If any of those are visible, she can't buy it. Or if I find that she bought it, then it goes in the trash. And honestly, it's becoming harder and harder to find clothes that don't show off one of these body parts.

*BTW, when she told her friends this, they informed her I was vulgar. Yeah, I don't put a lot of stock in the opinion of 13 year olds.

Oh my god, I am going to kill my daughter's friends with my "vulgarity."

My mother wouldn't even let me show my bellybutton. Which was maybe a good line to draw, because I felt like I was getting away with something wearing a belly shirt and it never even entered my mind to go around with my boobs or ass hanging out!

When I was a preteen, I had to do the stretch and bend test for all clothes: I had to stretch my arms up to the sky, and if belly showed, the shirt was too short. I had to bend over and touch my toes. Lower back showed, shirt too short. NEVER MIND ASS CHEEKS. It goes without saying that underwear, or any of mialoubug's four - those were showing and the clothes didn't happen.

Oh My God BUTTCHEEKS????? In front of her GRANDFATHER???? How was she not mortified?

Pardon me while I spend time in the corner being OLD and muttering about how glad I am to have a boy.

And I'm also thinking, "Did she sit down on any public item? Because EW EW EW EW EW."

I mean, seriously? WITH HER GRANDPARENTS? I'm embarrassed *for* her. :(
