Man Molests Girl in Plain Sight in Borders Bookstore

You can never be too careful when it comes to your kids. Sexual predators are brazen so parents need to be aware of who their children are with at all times whether they are at a the local playground, a family event or even the children's section of a bookstore. And, as an adult it's important to trust your instincts and err on the side of caution rather than dismissing something as a fleeting feeling and have your offspring pay the price.

A southern Californian girl was reading a book at Borders when she was molested by a sex offender who had at least one prior for the same offense. The five-year-old was in plain sight of adults, but the perpetrator used subtle tactics to victimize her. The man was caught on tape so watch the unsettling footage for yourself.

Moving Lines From Hillary Clinton's Gay Rights Speech

Speaking before the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took up the issue of gay rights. After reviewing the adoption of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the hard-fought victories achieved since for racial and religious minorities as well as women, Hillary said, "Today, I want to talk about the work we have left to do to protect one group of people whose human rights are still denied in too many parts of the world today." Here are some of the best lines from her speech, which some have called the "I Have a Dream" moment for the global LGBT community.

It starts at home: "Until 2003, it was still a crime in parts of our country. Many LGBT Americans have endured violence and harassment in their own lives, and for some, including many young people, bullying and exclusion are daily experiences. So we, like all nations, have more work to do to protect human rights at home."
LGBT rights are human rights: "Like being a woman, like being a racial, religious, tribal, or ethnic minority, being LGBT does not make you less human. And that is why gay rights are human rights, and human rights are gay rights."
LGBT people are members of the global community: "In reality, gay people are born into and belong to every society in the world. They are all ages, all races, all faiths; they are doctors and teachers, farmers and bankers, soldiers and athletes; and whether we know it, or whether we acknowledge it, they are our family, our friends, and our neighbors."
Religion is not an excuse: "Perhaps most challenging, issue arises when people cite religious or cultural values as a reason to violate or not to protect the human rights of LGBT citizens. This is not unlike the justification offered for violent practices towards women like honor killings, widow burning, or female genital mutilation."

Group Therapy: Are My Fiancé and His Sister Too Close?

This question is from a Group Therapy post in our TrèsSugar Community. Add your advice in the comments!

I feel like I'm overreacting, but I have a very creepy vibe about my fiancé and his sister. He is 26. She is 25. They know very personal stuff about each other - have conversations about people they have slept with . . . They text each other often and always say "I love you." On the phone, they are super cheesy. They will say to each other seriously, "I love you, brother" (my sister and I will say "I love you, sister!" jokingly). I realized early in our relationship that he pretty much kisses his sister's ass. Everything revolves around her. And he said, "When we were little, I was teasing her, and our dad punched me."

Once I brought it up to him that his sister talks to him like he's her boyfriend, he said, "Yeah she probably has a crush on me." Dead serious. Not grossed out or anything. Shortly after we started dating, he was on the phone with her, and she was CRYING, "Why is everything about HER?!" like literally crying because her brother had a girlfriend. He said, "Because I love her and am trying to build a future with her." I was embarrassed for his sister. It was not like some 10-year-old crying because she misses her older brother. His parents and sister still live where he grew up, but my fiancé moved about 10 hours away from them three years ago. I posted pictures on Facebook of a trip we took, and his sister commented on one of them, "You're wearing the hat I got you. Good boy."

He and I got matching tattoos of our lucky number a few months ago. He literally snuck off and texted his sister, "I got a tattoo!" Really?

For the rest of this girl's dilemma, keep reading!
