Colourful Bands... Careful What They Mean!!!

These colourful rubber/plastic bands are the hippest fashion accessories in town. However, do anyone really know the true meaning behind these bands?

I was watching the news last night and came across this news about a 13 year old Brazilian girl being raped by 3 teenagers. Police was called in and the teenagers reason for raping the girl was because she was wearing a black band of such and it broke.

This story got me interested i did some research on the net and came across a definition for this bands, on Urban-Dictionary.com. These bands are known as "sex-band"s or "sex-bracelets". They originated in the 90's and the idea is that depending on the colour, when the bands get broken, the person wearing that band is obliged to commit certain sexual acts.

Meanings Of Different Coloured Bands:

black: sexual intercourse
blue: oral
green: outdoor sex
clear: whatever the snapper wants
orange: kiss
yellow: hug
red: lap-dance
purple: full-on snog
white: flash
pink: love-bite
glow in the dark: using sex toys
gold: all of the above

Many Brazilian schools have already banned their students from wearing such bands. Some Brazilian states have also restricted selling such bands to people above the age of 18, to protect the minors.

Many teenagers in Singapore are also wearing such bands.But how many really do know the real meaning behind it? Or are they just following the trend, wearing these bands because many other teenagers are all wearing it?

Nevertheless, it would be wise to do some research on such accessories, and know the real meaning behind some of these accessories, before you wear them...
