If anyone has a comment or suggestion, I certainly welcome all feedback.
See chapter 1 for an explanation about this series. Instead of repeating the whole explanation, I'll leave you with another selection of letters from the "It's Not Fair!" letter column, in "Boy Stuff" magazine. In them, more boys complain about how little privacy they are allowed, and about the double standard that makes it OK for people to see them naked but protects girls' modesty. The intention of this article is illustrating the attitude changes that the Conservative Resurgence has brought about: children, particularly male children, are firmly controlled by adult authority figures, who often make a point of emphasizing that control, to keep boys in their place and out of trouble.
(Remember the magazine responses are in italics, and I'll add my own observations between square brackets).
Many thanks to Jimmy, Michael and an anonymous contributor, who wrote some of the letters in this chapter. Please, feel free to contribute any similar letters if you wish to.

It's Not Fair 2
Brandon (14 years old)
I am still bathed by my mom even though I'm 14. Sometimes when she is busy she even allows my sister, who is two years younger than me, to bathe me. I think that's totally unfair, but mom says that boys can't be trusted to wash themselves properly, and that girls mature much faster than boys so it's ok. I always feel very embarrassed and ashamed when my 12 year old sister sees me naked and even washes my boy thingies even though I'm older than her. Sometimes when she is soaping my thingie she rubs it up and down until I get a woodie. She pretends to wash it, lathering it with soap, but I know she does it on purpose. Once, just before I turned 14, she rubbed my thingie real fast. I got a woodie and she just kept on doing it until my thingie got all stiff and felt funny. I asked her to stop, but she just grinned and kept on going, stroking my thingie until I gasped and a drop of white liquid came out. She just smiled and washed it off. I did not know what had happened and I felt so humiliated. She shouldn't get to bathe me. It's not fair!
We're sorry your sister's giving you a hard time, Brandon. Probably asking your mom to let you bathe alone will not work, but why don't you go gradually? Ask her to let you wash yourself while your sister or she just watches to make sure you're cleaning yourself properly. She'll like that you try to take responsibilities, and maybe she'll agree, since you'll be supervised anyway in case you do it wrong.
[[Having to be naked in front of females is a recurring theme in boys' complaints, and bathing is a common occasion for that to happen. Nowadays, boys are being increasingly infantilised, and more and more mothers are reluctant to stop bathing their sons when they are old enough to do it themselves. The theory is that the more they are treated like little boys the less likely they'll be of getting in serious trouble. And it works, too. Let's face it: boys do not think about rebelling and getting in trouble when they are being so intimately dealt with and controlled at home. Most of them are also given Puericil, which makes boys much more docile and easy to handle, with no major side effects. Boys don't get in trouble and they are more easily made to study. They are treated like younger kids, given Puericil, and the boys consequently act like younger kids, at least emotionally. If their modesty suffers in the process... well, why should adults worry about something as silly and inconsequential as boys' modesty, when the results are good?
By the way, I had to laugh at the unintentional pun: your sister's giving you a hard time... Indeed!
Also, note how the magazine's advice is always sympathetic but never criticizes adults. Obviously, it's supposed to be educative, otherwise parents wouldn't buy them for their sons.]]

Jimmy (13 years old)
I am aged 13 and live with my aunt. I like to go to the beach and when I come out of the water my aunt always dries me. She pulls my speedos right off and wrings them dry and then she dries my hair with a small towel, and then the rest of my body. When she is drying me I am bare all the time, and she is awfully slow about it. She says I am just a kid and very silly to make a fuss, but there are lots of people on the beach, and girls too, and they look at me grinning and sometimes they laugh. My aunt says if I keep arguing she will take me all the way home bare but I do not think she would. But sometimes when we get home she says she will teach me not to argue with her in public and then she takes me upstairs and gives it to me hard on my bottom. It's not fair!
It's too bad your aunt treats you like a little boy, and we understand it's embarrassing to be dried and changed on the beach, where everybody can see. However, our advice is not to argue or talk back to her, since that only makes matters worse and won't help make her see you as a young man. Try to be obedient and act mature, and maybe she'll listen when you ask her not to change you on the beach (but don't do so when it's happening, since she'll see that as arguing... choose a different time, when she is in a good mood and your behavior has been good). If you follow our advice, even in the worst-case scenario, you'll at least save yourself a spanking!
[[Once more, the magazine avoids any criticism of the adult authority figures, although its advice seems sensible. Young Jimmy should grin and 'bare' it, if you'll pardon the pun, since his attitude is only making the situation worse.]]

Ernie (11 years old)
My mom still bathes me. I think I'm too old for that, but I don't mind that much because all my friends are still bathed by their parents too. However, last Friday my mom was babysitting Kati, who is the 8 year old daughter of our neighbors.
That evening at bath time, mom asked Kati if she would like to help bathe me and Kati said yes. As mom slipped my clothes off, Kati stared at me intently. Even mom noticed, but instead of telling her off she asked Kati if she had ever seen a boy nude. She shook her head "no", and mom then started a long discussion of my boy things as she washed me.
I asked her to be allowed to watch Kati's bath, but mom laughed at me and told me not to be silly, that she was a girl and I wasn't allowed to see her naked. It's not fair!
Your mom probably thinks that, as a little boy, you don't really need any modesty, and it's not important whether your girl neighbor sees you naked. It's too bad that moms don't have the same opinion about little girls, but it seems girls are just different, or so most people believe. You'd think girls have it made, but being a boy has its advantages too. Next time you're having fun playing football or Indians and cowboys think about how boring it'd be to play with dolls!
[[Notice how Ernie's mother not only regards it as unimportant that her 11-year-old son is seen naked by his 8-year-old neighbor girl, but she almost goes out of her way to ensure it happens. I have mentioned that nowadays many adults, especially those of conservative leaning, believe that it's good for boys not to be allowed much modesty. However, some mothers seem to find real gratification in exposing their sons in embarrassing manners. Maybe it's just an educative practice, or maybe there's something more, some pleasure obtained in exercising the newfound control and power society gives them over their boys.]]

Craig (13 years old)
At what age is a guy too old to be spanked, or put in the corner? I am the youngest of four boys and even my oldest brother, who is 18, is still spanked, and spanked on his bare bottom, by my dad... and my mom! I think that is wrong. Just as I think it is wrong that after a spanking we are sent to the corner, right there in the living room, and left there until we are told we can leave. Bare and with a red bottom, and anyone can and does look. And look hard! It doesn't matter who's there, family friends or even mom's friends. I asked about this as was told that while living under their roof I will be subjected to their rules, and that if I don't want to be spanked I only need to be obedient and follow all the rules. But it's not easy to follow the rules all the time. It's not fair!
Dear Craig, since your parents are determined there's not much you can do, apart from accepting their advice to behave. They love you, and clothe you, and feed you, and if they are strict it's only because they have your best interests at heart. A boy is a boy while living on their parents' dime and under their roof, and it's true that they are in charge and make the rules for your brothers and you. So any punishment they deem fit, is the punishment they are going to hand out. This is just life. Sorry kiddo, but just deal with it, is the only advice I can give.
[[The "Boy Stuff" magazine never criticizes adults, as you know by now. It only makes sense, from a commercial point of view, since offending adult authority figures would be the best way to ensure they don't allow their young charges to buy the magazine.
Anyway, no one can deny that adult authority has enjoyed a dramatic strengthening with the Conservative Resurgence. Family discipline policies as described in Craig's letter would have been unthinkable in the beginning of the XXI century, but nowadays many parents think nothing about being very strict and dominant with their children, particularly with their sons, even up to their late teens or early twenties. Far from being frowned upon, these attitudes are regarded as good parenting.]]

Greg (15 years old)
For my whole life, I have been bathed by my aunt or the babysitter. Until I was twelve, I didn't mind so much, because I was a little boy. Once I said to the babysitter I was embarrassed while she washed my privates, but she just laughed as if I had said the funniest thing, and just kept doing it. She told my aunt too, and she (my aunt) said I was capricious and that I wasn't allowed to be in the bathroom alone. When I was 13 or 14, however, I would try to hide my privates, especially in front of the babysitter, but she would tell me not to be a baby and would make me put my hands on the head so that she could wash me. I protested to my aunt, and said I was too old for a bathing by a female babysitter, particularly when my most frequent babysitter was my next door neighbor, who was only two years older than me! My aunt decided that I would be allowed to be alone in the bathroom and wash myself, but only twice a week, on Wednesday and Saturday, and only if I had been very good. The rest of the time, I had to accept bathing by the babysitter, privates washing included, because she wanted to make sure I was clean and boys tend not to wash themselves properly if left to their own devices. I kept arguing, but she threatened me with a paddling every time I made a fuss, and she kept her word too! So in the end I submitted to the decision and I stopped protesting, even when this young babysitter washed my whole body. However, my aunt did not really keep her end of the bargain. I mean, she usually lets me get a bath alone on Wednesday and Saturday, but when my babysitter is here those days she always insists that I haven't been good enough and that she'll give me my bath anyway. I have complained to my aunt, but she doesn't even want to hear about it! She always talks about how girls are so much more mature, but she doesn't understand that it's too embarrassing for a teen to be bathed by a girl, little older than him. She doesn't understand why I feel humiliated when this teenage girl washes my privates. She says "an upright boy doesn't need to hide anything". So I am never allowed to hide my privates in front of her or the babysitter. It's not fair!
Be patient, Greg. You are not the only boy who has these problems. There's not much you can do about it, except trying to behave and act mature, so that your aunt will finally think that you are old enough to take care of yourself. Good luck!
[[It is worth noting how society regards girls as much more mature than boys of the same age. It's not rare for girls to be hired as babysitters for boys of similar age. Female babysitters actually younger than their male charges are certainly not unheard of. These arrangements are embarrassing for many boys, but no one else raises an eyebrow about it.]]

Michael (13 years old)
I have just turned thirteen, and I live with my mom and my big sister, Bettany. My mom is a nurse, and she is out often in the evenings, and my sister is in charge of me. When I don't do what I am told, or don't do my homework, she is allowed to spank me, and when she spanks me she takes my pants down, because Mom allows her to spank me that way. She does it hard, but what's worse is that the neighbors can hear everything, and can hear that I still get bare-bot spankings. And they sometimes make jokes next day, like, 'What mischief you been up to, Mike? We heard you getting that naughty bottom of yours made good and red last night!' Or, 'Can you sit down yet, Mike?' It's really embarrassing, and it's not fair!
It's too bad that your neighbors hear your spankings and then tease you about them. Have you tried telling your sister? Maybe she'll be sympathetic and try not to spank where you might be heard. Other than that, behaving seems the only good solution, although we know that sometimes that's easier said than done!
[[This is another example of girls being given authority over boys. Girls are regarded as much more mature and are treated accordingly. This young man probably has many years of bare bottom spankings from his sister to look forward to.]]
