My former pastor tells the story of the family standing in line at the grocery store. His wife and daughters exclaimed "gross" at a particularly provocative Cosmopolitan cover showing a nearly naked model. The pastor said he happened to glance at his teen-aged son and gross was not what his son was thinking.

As a girl I can say that what the girls thought was gross was the male reaction cosmo intended to elicit

Sex has a revered place and that is not in the mind of a pubescent boy on a supermarket checkout. If his mother or his sister dressed like that he would object.
