Really?

[ithildin]

Am I just seriously out of touch with the modern world? I was waiting for my mum in the doctor's office lobby, and this girl exits the elevator with her mom and little sister. Typical emo teen sorta kid. She's wearing a way too large red t-shirt, that hangs down past her butt, but she has the front tucked in under her belt buckle -- a huge rhinestone belt buckle that says 'BITCH'. I was a little nonplussed to say the least. Is this a common fashion for teenage girls? Seriously?

I like to think the teenie-bopper girls come by it honestly, by way of queens proud to bear the title. But I, too, have NO idea what was going through the mother's head.

I had a conversation today with a 13-year-old girl who came to me to ask for a 2nd opinion on her skirt.
Her - "Is this too short?"
Me - "It looks a little too short to me. If you sit down, I think it'll ride up more. Could get pretty embarrassing."
Her -"Yeah, Mrs. X and Ms. Y got on my case about it. But look, when I put my arms down, the skirt's past my finger-tips!"
Me - "That's true."
Three minutes later she sits on the heater, which blows her skirt up it ripples around her.
Her - "Mrs. H, look, how cool!"
Me - "I think you should either avoid the heater, or make sure your underwear matches the rest of the outfit."
Her - "ACK!" *retreats to seat, tugging her skirt down as far as it will go*

Yeah, usually the underwear showing does get them. Although there are a number of them wearing low-riders and thongs, which gives a bizarre back view...
