LaFonduh...

If you haven’t met her yet, I’d like to introduce you to LaFonduh.

 

LaFonduh is a lovely girl and she desperately wants to fall in love. She is the:

 

The Popular Cheerleader

The Unseen Poet

The Quiet Genius and

The Rocker Chick

 

She is short.

She is tall.

She is gorgeous

and she is plain.

Sadly, she is often

Every Girl.

 

LaFonduh quickly falls in love 

with guys at different schools. It doesn’t take long for LF to attach herself to a guy.

The more sexual stuff she does with a guy, the tighter the grip and the harder LF falls. Kissing, making out, whatever, LF is sure she is ready, certain that this guy is THE one and so she gives a little bit more of herself until she’s given everything away.

 

When that relationship doesn’t last, LF quickly surveys her school for the available guys. She’s on the prowl again, looking for a new boy to love and so the pattern repeats itself.

 

If you haven’t noticed, LaFonduh is a piece of tape; a piece of transparent packing tape but honestly she symbolizes what we see all the time as we go out and speak in schools about sex and stuff.

 

Although LaFonduh is tape, she really exists, if you know what I mean.

 

And when LF gets dumped, parts of her and that guy are left behind. She’s got some of him on her; he’s got some of her on him. There are tiny pieces of each other still left.

 

You should see how eager the guys are to get rid of clingy LaFonduh. She has turned

jealous and obsessive. She drives the poor guy crazy! Her whole world revolves around him and he feels like he can’t even breathe!

 

Recently when we were speaking in a school, one of the teenage guys ripped LF off his arm so fast you could hear the hairs being torn off. He was really hairy and look at what he left on LF. Ew!

 

And as gross as it is seeing all that hair, honestly, for some students, the residue left behind is far more intense and physical…pregnancy, sexual transmitted diseases and infections. 

Hooking up with someone is not as carefree as some would like you to believe. 

 

Sex, making out, really everything in between is a big deal. Kissing, touching, messing around, even doing sexual things with another person it's kind of like tape. It connects people and when a relationship is over, the stuff left behind is emotional…heartbreak, embarrassment,

and regret. 

In our next post, I’ll share with you a story, edited for privacy reasons, of what recently happened to a girl who has felt like LaFonduh in real life.

Sex and Chocolate?

Since starting this blog, I am even more watchful of the messages that celebrities decide to share. So it comes as no surprise that another Hollywood star has proclaimed more stupid stuff for the world to hear.

Teri Hatcher, actress in the hit series Desperate Housewives, was interviewed for the October issue of Glamour UK and has a few things she wants her daughter and the world to know. 

I like a few of her suggestions.

Eat chocolate (brilliant!)

Floss your teeth (cha)

The sun will rise tomorrow (slightly cheesy and kind of reminds me of the movie Annie but ok...)

Don't sit on public potty seats (ew!)

But there was one piece of "wisdom" Ms. Hatcher gave which I question. This Desperate Housewives star apparently tells her daughter, "have great sex."

Oh boy, I can only imagine the hugs and joy that Emerson, her 10 year old girl, had when her mama gave her that little nugget of knowledge! I mean, we all know 10 year old girls LOVE to have awkward conversations with their parents about VERY intimate things, huh? What child do you know that wouldn't want to hear, "have great sex" over "I love you" and other cornball words like that? 

Another thing Ms. Hatcher recomends is not sitting on public toilet seats. This is interesting to me. I bet the reason Teri Hatcher advises her daughter not to sit on public potty seats is not only can they be very gross but also because you can catch a disease like hepatitis from a toilet seat and not even know it was there. Hmmm...according to the Centers for Disease Control, one of our every four sexually active teenage girls contracts a sexually transmitted disease. Most STD/STIs don't even have symptoms and many can't be seen. Do you see a similarity there? 

So let me see, Ms. Hatcher tells her 10 year old daughter to have great sex but has she given her any boundaries? What do you think are the chances that this single Hollywood mom has bothered to tell her little girl that the best place to have great sex is in marriage? I'd wager a big bar of Ghirardelli chocolate that she has conveniently overlooked that part of the sentence. 

There are some missing parts of that conversation, Ms. Hatcher. Sure, sex is a good thing but in case you haven't noticed, it can also be really complicated. Sex is intense and wonderful and also very serious. There are consequences and risks that extend far beyond pregnancy and diseases. 

I'm sure Ms. Hatcher is a loving mom but if she wants to impart helpful advice to her daughter or anyone else for that matter, she needs to floss her brain before speaking and tell her the rest of the story.
