  • A parent not talking about something is the equivalent of a parent saying that that thing is bad to talk about. I think if you are THAT reserved, THAT much afraid of sex and violence, then you have probably never lived. IT'S JUST A MOVIE. It doesn't have to be real life. Being squeamish is BAD. It's also not normal. It really doesn't let you experience things that you might find awesome if you would go out and do them. And to answer your final question, "why should a parent talk to their child about sex", ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. If a parent doesn't teach their child about sex, then the child will ALWAYS be scared to bring it up with them, and will likely be uneducated about birth control. It is a danger because they will likely either go out and have unprotected sex and get pregnant (see Bristol Palin) or be too timid about it to enjoy ANYTHING related to it (see YOU.) Bottom line, you're sheltered and will probably raise sheltered children.

    • Ok so my life is fucked and I might as well give up? I can't change my childhood.
      And I would have thought being squeamish is a perfectly normal reaction. It should be disturbing to see someone with their insides hanging out. It's a warning that there's danger nearby, a natural human instinct. Surely?

      • What about sex? It's a natural human instinct that when there's sex nearby, you should be turned on. Surely?

        • I'm not saying I'm not.... I just don't acknowledge it because I don't want to. I WANT to be innocent.
          That doesn't explain the squeamish thing though.

          • Read William Blake, particularly The Lamb and The Tyger. You may understand now, you may understand years down the line. You're lucky that you have retained your innocence but be warned.. that can make it even harder when you finally lose it, and it would take a miracle or a mental handicap to retain your innocence through the entirety of your adult life. :/ Sad to say, but thats the world we live in.

            • Just to clarify, I'm not trying to be asexual. I just don't want to watch other people having sex.
              And I don't see how it's bad. I don't want children. It isn't upsetting me in any way, if anything is it's that everyone else all seem sluttier to me than they should be. I'm perfectly happy with myself. I feel really healthy and pure and happy. When I'm on my own anyway.
