Terrifying Tween Trend: Jelly bracelets aka sex bracelets... they're not as innocent as some teens pass them off to be

Once again it seems that teenage girls have found a way to downplay their self-worth and morals and invite all interested boys to take advantage of their bodies.

Jelly bracelets used to be popular back in the ‘80s when anything that was neon or super colorful just HAD to be worn, but in the early 2000s, these bracelets started experiencing a comeback for a very different reason.

Nicknamed ‘sex bracelets’ these jelly bands indicate – according to their color – what acts – from kissing to sex – a girl is willing to engage in or already has experienced.

And that’s not all, folks. If a guy is able to snap a particular bracelet off a girl’s wrist, he’s allowed to demand that she engage in whatever sexual act the color stood for with him. 

Is it really THAT important to tell the world how easy you are? Are teen girls nowadays really willing to sleep with someone just because he’s strong enough to break a bracelet? Maybe we’re old-fashioned, but we just don’t get the appeal. Why does being sleazy signify that you’re awesome? It sure doesn’t in the real world. Anyways for the sake of the story here what the colors of the bracelets are supposed to mean:

Yellow - wearer is willing to HUG 
Pink - wearer is willing to give a hickey 
Orange -  wearer is willing to KISS 
Purple -  wearer is willing to kiss a partner of either sex 
Red -  wearer is willing to perform a LAP DANCE 
Green - wearing is willing to receive ORAL SEX 
Clear - wearer is willing to do "whatever the snapper wants" 
Blue - wearer is willing to give ORAL SEX 
Black -  wearer has regular "missionary" sex 
White - wearer will "FLASH"
Glittery Yellow - wearer is willing to HUG and KISS
Glittery Pink - wearer is willing to "flash" 
Glittery Purple - wearer is willing to French  kiss 
Glittery Blue - wearer is willing to perform anal sex 
Glittery Green - wearer is willing to "69" 
Glittery Clear -wearer is willing to let the snapper "feel up" or touch any body part they want 

Because of the rise in sex bracelets’ popularity, many schools in North America banned them and although some may have thought this was an exaggeration, the bracelets’ true dangers were fully brought to light when, in 2010, a 13-year-old girl in Brazil was raped by three teenage boys after one of them managed to snap the bracelet she was wearing.  

Come on ladies, isn’t it time to class it up... at least a little?
