No, it's not .. but, living in Houston, I watched seen this story unfold from the outset (it started about this time last week) and it is being way overhyped.>
People who have their panties in a wad over this thing have been led by the media hype to believe it was some kind of wild orgy and nothing could be farther from the truth.
The party had adult chaperons, police presence, NO alcohol and was part of a tradition at that school going back to when I was there (before dirt was invented) - senior guys throw a theme party every year.
The "scantily clad" females wore more clothing than they'd wear to the beach ... tuffydoodle's reservation not withstanding. If two piece bathing suits are too risque for some folks, they're welcome to clothe their children however they see fit ... what the parents of these kids do is no one's business but their own.
So, again, "nothing to see here folks, move along now".
"what the parents of these kids do is no one's business but their own."
Can't agree with this. Parents let their underage kids drink, drive, do drugs, etc., all with their blessings. There are lots of people out there who have no business being parents and their lack of parenting skills impacts lots of people other than their own kids.
Those boys could have had any kind of theme party that they wanted but they choice "playboy" for obvious reasons and the girls fell for it, hook, line and sinker. No way on this earth would I let my son throw a "playboy" themed party in our home.
And without a doubt, my high standards will be made to look foolish while the parents of the Playboy party boy will look "hip" and fun.
