  1. Interesting article about Puriteens. Young people are right to be leery and resistant about being used simply for the sexual gratification of others. As a Boomer, I can say that Puriteens know what's going on, whereas we didn't when we were their age.

  3. "The world has made sex weird for them." Sex is pretty weird right out of the box. The world didn't have to lift a finger.
