Jennifer Herrera sits at the back of a convertible car driven along Havana's seafront boulevard "el Malecon" during her 15th birthday "coming out" celebration June 9, 2011. The custom dates back to the Spanish colonial era and has survived in Communist Cuba, where debutantes dress up in muslin dresses that showcase their bodies and pose for cameras with uninhibited sensuality. Parents save up for the event, which can cost $300-500, a small fortune in a country where monthly salaries average $20. REUTERS/Desmond Boylan (CUBA - Tags: SOCIETY TRANSPORT)
