2. Sounds good to me.
"Well fuck, we can't just be letting people feel good whenever they like can we? Where's the advantage in that? At least they ought to have to pay for it."

4. The pamphlet was addressed to teachers and other adults, not pupils.
I'll check it out (sounds more fun than the average government leaflet!) but I do rather suspect that it's another case of the Murdoch Press stretching the facts in the service of their crusades against eeeeeevil left-wing modern education.

5. Studies show that "once a day" limits the consequences to near sightedness
and complete blindness can be avoided.

6. Best to read article before making reply - I assumed they were referring to , well, you know,
SELF stimulation - I didn't think they were talking about actual sex.

I think teenagers are under enough peer pressure without adding any additional pressure to that. I am against teenage sex for the most part - too many unintended consequences for too many.

7. Shades of Wilhelm Reich! There is hope for the world.
Edited on Mon Jul-13-09 06:12 PM by Grinchie
For those that are trained to think Pornographic thoughts whenever someone mentions Sex or Orgasm, you should probably read Wilhem Reich's "The Function of the Orgasm" first.

I think when you finish the book, you will be dismayed at how closely he described the current social disaster we are in at the moment.
