4:02Now Playing"A Virginia homeschooled girl is speaking out about recently being kicked out of a local homeschool prom because a group of dads were allegedly lusting after her.
The story originated on Wine and Marble, a blog run by Hannah Ettinger. Hannah's sister Clare, a 17-year-old homeschooled senior, wrote of her recent prom experience on the blog.
According to Clare, her boyfriend had purchased them tickets to the prom in advance, and she was really excited about her dress choice for the evening. She complied with the homeschool association's dress code, which stated that a girl's dress must be "finger length." When she arrived at the prom, one of the organizers stopped her to tell her that her dress was too short. After showing her that it was finger length, the woman allowed her to continue on into the prom, but unfortunately for Clare, that was just the beginning of her problems."* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.
