3. Sounds like the Mormons are stuck in the Fifties...

Maybe even the 1850s.

I write that while sitting here watching "Masters of Sex," the Showtime series about the sex researchers Masters & Johnson in the 1950s.

Jebus, what you said about the Mormons applied to the whole damn country back in those days. Nobody knew anything about sex and even talking about it was verboten.

One of the fictional characters is a woman doctor trying to get the Pap smear established as a common procedure. This is not considered important by the mostly male medical community.

The series also gave a small part to one of my favorite atheists, Sarah Silverman. So it's a big win all around.
