[quote=Anonymous]I was team teen girl from the start, and commented to that effect earlier. But coming back to this thread made me think about whether I would really confront an adult joking this way to my daughter. That led me to a mental exercise, in which I tried to picture myself joking with the neighbor's teen boy (fully grown and handsome and 19). I tried to picture myself joking "so, do you have a girlfriend?" and then following that up with "what, are you gay?" It is just SO inappropriate and so far from the realm of possible things I can picture saying, even to a boy who is legally an adult. So, yeah. I'm more strongly than ever in the camp of damn disturbing thing to say to a teen (or to anyone), and dad owes daughter a sincere apology, with reflection on his attitudes. [/quote]
