I remember Dobie Gilles show would not allow a
pregnant girl to be shown because it would infer that she had sex.
I don’t think Americans could ever become quite that prim, proper and naive again. We know too much and it’s so easy to find out more. Woody Allen’s book would not need to be written today. “Everything you ever wondered about Sex, but were afraid to ask!” It was an international best seller!
That would be an entirely correct inference.
“it would infer that she had sex.”
Imply. People watching would infer.
