Are prom dresses getting too sexy?
HOUSTON (KTRK) -- This year, the theme for prom dresses seems to be less fabric and more skin. So much so that some Houston-area schools are going to new lengths to make sure the dresses are appropriate.

It's a theme shared by most parents of teenage girls.
"You shouldn't wear a dress that if you bend over, you show what God gave you," one parent told us.
But this prom season, girls are daring to wear dresses inspired by the catwalk, Hollywood celebrities. And get this, prom dresses even are copied off the dance costumes you see on prime time TV.
"It's not supposed to be taken literally, it's for film, it's for TV presence," stylist Stevie Bingham said. "It's not supposed to actually be worn at a high school prom."
In dress shops and stores all across Houston, battle lines are being drawn.
"Prom is supposed to be, this is your last chance, you need to show 'em what you got," senior Sophia Heding said.
We found Heding trying on a few prom dresses for her father, who was laying down the law.
But this year, parents aren't the only ones implementing strict prom dress rules.
HISD says each of its nearly 40 high schools creates its own prom dress code. Chavez High School administrators say their rules are plain and simple.
"We don't want them to show too much cleavage and too much sides and the back it should not go below the waist," assistant principal Reesa Turner said.
For short dresses, students must follow the finger rule.
"As long as the dress comes right here, at the tip of her finger then that's an appropriate length," Turner said.
Some parents feel schools should go back to the rule known as "the floor test," where you kneel down and if your dress doesn't touch the floor, it's out of prom dress code.
But when it is too short, too tight or shows too much skin, who's really responsible for policing the rules -- the parents or the schools?
"I think the parents," one parent told us.
"The parents, they are the ones that are paying for it, they're the ones that can say," another parent said.
"I think its parents No. 1. That's my own opinion. I'm not going to let my daughter go out in something that I haven't approved of," a third parent said.
School officials we spoke to say they're aware that the styles are sexier than ever; so, this year, they're hoping to work with parents, making sure prom season is full of good memories and good taste.
Heding's father says he couldn't agree more.
"She is 19. She is grown, in a sense, but, like I said, this is her last 'hurrah' that she may have to hear my mouth about anyway," he said jokingly.
If you're battling what's appropriate for prom with your daughter, we've got some expert advice from a Houston family therapist.

'Getting sexy' survey: Swedes don't come first

While Swedes' supposed penchant for sex may is a recurring theme in popular culture, a recent survey calls into question just how eager Swedes may be to get in on when the lights go off.
In addition, a bevy of Swedish actresses have been picked to depict voluptuous "Bond girls" in 007 films throughout the years.
As it turns out, however, Swedes deliver a decidedly limp performance when it comes to a new measure of what people from different countries do when the lights go off.
Instead of looking to caress their partner in a loving embrace or get kinky between the sheets, most Swedes, 55 percent, would rather reach for the remote and zone out in front of the television after dark, a survey carried out for Bj?rn Borg-brand underwear shows.
By comparison, only 46 percent of Swedes indicated that "getting sexy with someone" was their preferred activity when the lights go off.
According to the survey, Spaniards are the most hungry for sex, with 75 percent claiming they preferred getting sexy in the dark to anything else.
Meanwhile 61 percent of Germans, and 52 percent Americans said "getting sexy" was their top after-dark pastime.
In fact, of the nine countries included in the survey, Swedes ranked dead last when it came to the percentage of respondents who preferred to turn up the heat when they turn off the lights.
The survey also found that only 37 percent of Swedes usually had sex with the lights on, below the 44 percent average for all countries survey.
Meanwhile, Germans topped the Bj?rn Borg survey's unofficial "kinky league", with nearly half indicating they used "tools and gadgets" during sex, more than any other country.
By comparison, only 31 percent of Swedes said that sex toys "made it more fun", with only the United States and the Netherlands ranking lower.
Swedes, rather, prefer romantic music when it comes to accessories for having "a better time in the dark", while tools and gadgets came in a close second on par with premium bedding.
The survey, released ahead of Earth Hour on March 31st and meant to promote Bj?rn Borg's new line of glow-in-the-dark underwear, included responses from over 1,700 18- to 30-year-olds in nine different countries across the globe.
