i dont want my daughter to get raped or sexually assaulted. ideally i’d like her to be better than me & wait until marriage. but if she has my genes that’s gonna be next to impossible. so hot take:

i only want her to have sex at home, and only when me/my wife are home. thoughts?
to clarify:

1) i understand she can sneak guys around me regardless. when i said “only” i didn’t mean it as an ultimatum i meant it as a preference. i prefer to see her friends as well as boyfriends. this is for safety not control. she can do whatever she wants in the end.
2) i’m not gonna sit there and watch, i’d be in the living room or my room. it’s more of a “presence” type of thing. my presence would hopefully deter any rapey behavior. if something does go wrong i’d like to be there for her. ik it’s not 100%, but it’s something at least.
3) when i said wait until marriage i wasnt implying that rape doesnt happen after marriage or if ur promiscuous. i was saying that as a minor she’s my responsibility so it’s my job to mitigate her assualt risk and if assult DOES happen then its my job to get the people who did it
4) this goes for my daughter AND son. i wanna see his friends and his girlfriends and i want him to tell me who and when he’s bringing people over so i can have a presence in the atmosphere. again this is SAFETY not control. they can do what they want in the end.
5) if something bad happens i will make sure their voices are heard. i’d be able to confirm the story and backup my child’s claims. me being in the house is a stronger support system than them going to some strangers house somewhere where anybody can gaslight them.
6) at the VERY LEAST even if u don’t agree with my views. u have to admit it’d be REALLY hard to kidnap/traffick a girl in her OWN home while her parents are in the living room. i‘d have those worries if she was at another person’s place, but not in my own home? while i’m there?
7) i’m also not saying that this will prevent anything 100%. OBVIOUSLY anything can happen. i’m saying that adult presence will mitigate the RISK of rapey behavior. while my kids are minors it’s my job to mitigate risk. once they’re out the house or grown everything is on them.
8) i’m also not forcing them to obey me lol. if they choose to follow my wishes fine, if not, fine. i’m just giving them an option for a safe space.
