Jeesh guys, what I wrote is nothing compared to what some Jewish commentators have written about it. There was a time when the book wasn't taught to anyone under 30 years old in rabbinical schools because of it's content.

I hope you're not serious, because if you are, I might have the inclination to bop you over your virtual head. It's not about being "inhibited."
I would have the same reaction if some guy at church had spoken the same paragraph out loud in my presence. e.g., "It's GROSS to hear you TALK like that." Very crude. You can have an adult conversation without being crude and crass. At least, I think it SHOULD be possible. So far on this thread, a few have proven they don't have that ability.

Part of the problem is the public nature of this thread. I do personally know of a young teenager who visits and posts.

Unless that teenager has been home schooled forever, the topics discussed on this thread is not something they have never heard others talk about in much more vulgar terms.
Besides, talking about stuff, in a mature way, allows folks to THINK on their own.
Free thought is a God-given gift.
However, there are folks who I hold in high esteem that wish for the demise of this thread. That knowledge is kind of getting to me.
