Dear Teen-Ager

On a lovely sunny Tuesday, what can be more fitting than an excerpt from Mr. Mybug's favourite book in the library, Dear Abby's Dear Teen-Ager?

"I'm Not 'Stacked'"

Girls who are generously endowed can well be proud. But the source of their pride suggests problems. Be glad you don't have them.

I know what you're thinking: "Abby, you've flipped! Being stacked gets attention from boys!"

Well, I admit it: being stacked will make a girl sought after and whistled at. It provokes a boy's interest. But the kind of interest it provokes may be so darned healthy that it's unhealthy! Wolves and nogoodniks looking for pure sex will be cluttering up your doorstep, asking for dates. This is the kind of attention a girl can well do without!
