Get PINKDOME Merchandise!

Catty. Chatty. And Occasionally Trashy.

What's With All The Prudes?

Scenario: Teacher takes 5th grade class to museum. Museum has nude artwork. One parent fuh-reaks out. School board responds by freaking out.

A woman who's been a teacher for 28 years is getting grilled because she took her students to the museum where they obviously have art that depicts nudes. What was that parent thinking? Didn't they sign a permission slip for the field trip? Have they never been to a museum? Did they believe John Ashcroft would come in and hang cloths on the marble boobs and fig leaves on the granite cocks?

Fer crissakes people, it wasn't like the kid wandered into some girl-on-horse porno flick downtown, he saw a work of art. Honestly, I'd worry more about what little Jimmy is doing in the bathroom for 30 minutes with his mother's Victoria's Secret catalogue.

Seriously. This makes me insane. Some people should homeschool their children because they are just ruining public school for everyone else. Ugh.

It's like having our own little slice of Kansas right here in North Texas!
