Songstress Kenny Saint Brown, has revealed the age her daughter will be allowed to date.
Speaking with Saturday Beats, Kenny, who was formerly married to One half of popular 80’s group, Remedies Eddy Montana and bore two kids for, revealed she her girls will be allowed to date at the age of 15.
In her words:
‘Penis Envy’ is a stage theorised by Sigmund Freud regarding female psycho sexual development, in which young girls experience anxiety upon realization that they do not have a penis. However, the singer said that her Philosophy lecturer in school defined it as a stage in a young girl’s life when she realises that she attracts the member of the opposite sex.
She continued:
“When I was in the university, I took a course in Philosophy and they taught us that there is a particular age that girls start dating and they call it the age of ‘Penis Envy’.
It is not that the girls are necessarily looking for sex, it is just a stage in their life whereby they realise that they are pretty and they can be attractive to a guy. For me, once my daughter is 15 years old then it is okay for her to date. It is not that they would be walking around holding hands but it has to be a civil and responsible relationship. I am not a regular parent, I feel it is okay for a female child to be aware that she is attractive to guys and she should also know that the guy would woo her.
That was the age it happened to me and I would be a wicked mother to expect that at the age of 15, my daughter would not have someone wooing her or telling her the usual lies guys tell ladies.
“So for my boy, if he is 17 and I notice that he is always talking to someone on the phone and always smiling, it is okay. It does not mean that they are going to be practicing sex; it just means that they are understanding matters of the heart and love apart from the love they get from their parents,” she said.
