Sex for Girls, circa 1960

Parents, be a cool cat and buy this record so your pre-teen daughter knows the jive about the birds and the bees.

I have to wonder what today's equivalent would be. There's so much trashy clothing out there I'm not longer surprised when I see sixth-grade girls at the mall wearing stuff with words written on the butt like "Sexy" and "You wish". We're oversexualizing children at an age that is just too damned young.

I showed Stef and Monk a picture of my mom's anatomically-correct gingerbread people that she's been making for the last several years, and she simply said "that explains it". I don't really know what I'd have done if Mom had started making that kind of thing when I was still in grade school. I'd probably have taken it in stride, but I was always advanced for my age in that regard.
