Re: Sex Scenes
I think there are several issues here- You can say no sex scenes, etc. but I was driving in downtown DC last week and followed a bus for about 3 miles (no choice, traffic). The advertisement on the back of the bus had a picture of two men, in a clothed, yet sensual position saying "Every BODY deserves love- get tested today". I was appalled, disgusted, and thinking, if I had small children in the car I would not want to explain it to them. It's everywhere, unfortunately.
We are considered "over the top" by my kids friends, concerning what we do and do not allow, but our kids don't seem to mind that much as long as we explain our reasons, they usually don't complain too much.
On another note- I had a talk recently with my daughter about Harlequin romances (and similar novels), I explained to her that they are essentially "porn for women", they create expectations that our husbands cannot live up to- so we need to be aware of what we put into our heads and hearts, not just HOW we put it in.
