[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Think back to the Kavanaugh hearings and the description of how the teen boys at Georgetown Prep treated the girls they interacted with. Girls who don't know how to handle themselves around little predators are at risk. [/quote]
This is an awful thing to say, "how to handle themselves" ? Girls from any background or with any amount of experience can get taken advantage of. 
Anyway, I went to an all girls school, was a late bloomer, and had some interaction with boys on a club swim team but not much. Very few of my classmates had zero interaction with boys outside of school because most of us did outside extracurriculars but few in my circle were dating.
I was awkward with boys my first year of college but if anything I was overly cautious, not at all reckless. Obviously this will vary person to person. I figured it out by sophomore year and had a great experience socially. Met my husband shortly after college and am happily married.

FWIW, I only have sons now and I wouldn't be keen on sending them to an all boys school but if I had a daughter I would have no reservations. [/quote]
