I think some people are being a bit too hard on this couple. I mean, from my perspective, they were living in a state of innocence. I mean, they may be quite intelligent, but simply ignorant of sex - ignorant is not the same as stupid.

It's sort of like how in grade and middle school it's always akward trying to figure out what the different sexual terms are. You don't want to be on the receiving end of some twit saying "I can't believe you don't know that!!! You're such a little kid!!!".

Give 'em a break.

Well, I have to confess that these things were not as awkward for those growing up in a public school. You tended to hear more than you really wanted to.

Now, it's a little different.

Unpleasant knowledge is, typically, preferable to pleasant ignorance.

"Well, just how exactly where they expecting the pregnancy to happen?"

Osmosis? Who knows - the point is, this doesn't make them bad people.

No, not bad people. Although i would call their upbringers bad people.

I just have a hard time wraping my mind around it. A couple just siting there waiting for a pregnancy to magically happen.

I'd imagine they'd be lying in bed, snuggling or some such. Who knows - they may have even had oral sex, thinking that that would somehow transmit bodily fluids to create a child. I guess you'd have to ask them.

I never received the intimate details of other peoples' experiences in middle school, or even well into high school, and then only rarely. But then again, I hung out with a bunch of geeks and we didn't exactly see a lot of action. I don't know who you were hanging out with but it was obviously a bad crowd - a bunch of no-goodniks!

Even if a guy went through his entire life without knowing about sex, he would still have urges to put his penis in various places. They would have figured it out eventually.

the first humans figured it out after all.

Like wow- that's real edgy, maan.

Looking forward to the Marilyn Manson video and song cycle of 'Ben's Friends', the forthcoming feature film by Larry Clark, and the searching expose by Tama Janowitz.

I bet some of your friends don't even floss, eh?

I'm sorry, sometimes he makes it too easy. Still, at least it helps feed his martyr complex.

I always liked Patsy's comment to Saffy in 'Ab Fab':

"You may dress like a Christian, but the similarity ends there!"

Ooohhh, I bet- 'anti-trinitarian', 'Jansenist', 'gnostic'- all the real mean ones.

.


Oh Ben, what a shock, you're not well pleased in molly?
Imagine my keenly felt disappointment...

As usual, your obtuseness makes you miss the point- neither the Amish nor the Mennonites are trying, oh so desperately hard, to look happening, now and with it, whereas the catalogue of haberdashery disasters above just screams out:

'Missed the plot!"

Christian rock or the Velvet Underground, MC5 or Iggy and the Stooges?

No contest.

Steady.

Better dilute the milk to half strength with water, otherwise it might rush to his head, and who knows? he could be sighted at Vancouver airport in saffron robes, trying to sell flowers.
