Appropriateness

Steve, who I'd met once before at another dance event, was at dancing last night as he was still in town from the festival. He taught a dance that I thought was pretty pointless. But that is besides the point of this post. He was there wearing a shirt that said "Not Guilty" on the front and "She told me she was 18" and a little smiley face on the back. I was a bit shocked, but didn't really want to say anything: for all I knew, other people thought it was funny. But zodiacmg shared my opinions, as did another friend of ours. It was just a strange thing to wear- it made it sound like he thought that having these sorts of legal protections for kids was silly, for one. And for two, it made for some very odd connotations about his own private life, something I'd think one wouldn't want to share with strangers. ANd close-knit as the IFD community is, he Couldn't have known everyone in that room before he came... It did not make me think too highly of that aspect of the gentleman's judgement...

And I just ut myself on my own hangnail.
