In a letter to parents Friday, Piedmont High School’s principal revealed the existence of a “Fantasy Slut League” where varsity athletes collected points for sexual activity with female classmates.
"It has been reported that students on some of our Varsity Teams have set up a "Fantasy Slut League" in which our female students (unbeknownst to most of them) are drafted as part of the league," Principal Rich Kitchens' letter said. "Male students earn points for documented engagement in sexual activities with female students."
The letter failed to specify what teams participated in the practice, only that “over the past 5-6 years such a league has existed in one form or another as part of ‘bonding’ for some Varsity Teams during their seasons of sport.”
Commenters on Piedmont Patch identifying themselves as current and former students argued that the sexual activity would have happened even if the league never existed. “What the Parents need to understand is that you should be blaming the parties your 15-18 year old daughters go to not the league,” wrote someone who claimed to be a recent alum of the school.
Other commenters were dismayed by the principal's claim that the participating students now know the league was wrong because the possibility of discipline may damage their prospects when it's time to apply for college. "It is incredibly SAD that PHS students are most concerned about how this might affect their college applications and NOT that they regret harming another child," wrote a mother of two children in Piedmont schools.
The principal’s letter noted that the idea behind the league “was not unique to Piedmont High School.” What do you think? Could something like the Fantasy Slut League be part of Lamorinda's high school athlete culture? Are parents and guardians too permissive when it comes to alcohol at high school parties?
“over the past 5-6 years such a league has existed in one form or another..." I think "5-6 years" should read "50-60 thousand years." Also, I suspect potential plagiarism in the whole piece. It is a nearly verbatim copy of an article published last week in "Duh Magazine."

"Fantasy Slut League" ... it's all the same. We as parents hope they dont drive drunk and they use condoms.
Having said that, this story is about EVERY high school, not just Piedmont. The end game is the same, only the players and the rules differ.
I think the over-reaction from the administration was formulated in the shadow of the PC Beast that threatens to lash out at anyone who doesn't go "all in" to denounce anything will keywords like "bully," "teenage sex," "alcohol," and "coerce."
Is this young lady also trying to point out she is a fully knowledgable individual, so therefore not a victim if her name shows up on the blog? And am I correct in understanding that she is updating the rules as stated, to ensure we know that the girls receive the points, not just the boys?
It's not just the music, it's easy access to contraceptives, television, porn, etc. All combined. Plus sex if you didn't know is actually a quite enjoyable activity. People today aren't so constrained by religious dogma around the issue like in the 50's. I believe the rules today are don't get pregenant and don't get an STD.
From the CDC: Even though symptoms of chlamydia are usually mild or absent, serious complications that cause irreversible damage, including infertility, can occur "silently" before a woman ever recognizes a problem. Chlamydia is the most frequently reported bacterial sexually transmitted disease in the United States." It's believed that Jackie Kennedy's miscarriages and premature labor may have been caused by JFK giving her chlamydia. So, Ladies, marrying the young stud with a lot of sexual history might not be a great idea if you want to have kids.
