The wealthy, high-society
mother of
a 17-year-old girl was concerned that her
daughter was having
sex. Worried the girl might become pregnant, and adversely impact the family's status, she consulted the family
doctor. The doctor told her that teenagers today were very willful, and any attempt to stop the girl would probably result in rebellion. He then told her to arrange for her daughter to be put on birth control and, until then, talk to her and give her a box of
condoms. Later that evening, as her daughter was preparing for a date, the
woman told her about the situation and handed her a box of condoms. The girl started to
laugh and reached over to hug her mother saying, "Oh
Mom! You don't have to worry about that! I'm
dating a woman!"
