Nearly An Urban Assault Victim

Customers Suck, and this one almost got kicked in the chops.

… And girls shouldn’t read big books like that. It’s too thick. Boys don’t like girls who read thick books. You want boys to like you, don’t you? …

Miss B has just finished reading the sixth Harry Potter book (and if she asks me to read the part where Harry kisses Ginny again, I may scream), and all I can say is, if big books make girls into lesbians, then get in the car, honey, we’re goin to the library! Lesbians won’t make you a teenage mom.

But seriously; what freaking kind of freaking mother would tell her daughter that? You’re supposed to freaking nurture and teach, and model, you complete and total yutz. I haven’t read the Traveling Pants books, but I hear they’re pretty good. Miss B seems to enjoy fantasy, though, so I’ll leave her to whatever she finds. In my house, whatever she wants to read she’s allowed; some of the books I’ve “proofread” ( just like my dad proofread my comics ).

    When I was young there was a sign on my librarians desk that said “Never apologize for your reading taste”. I’ve taken that to heart. Read whatever you like as long as you keep reading is my position with the kids.
