Your name calling simply confirms your (lack of) position. You deny the impact society and culture have on sexualizing youth. I know of my own experience that it has a huge impact. I've seen youth raised in the modern culture engaging in sex acts at an age that is shocking. I've also seen my own children and others raised in familes that reject and restrict 'pop culture' and have NOT seen such acts.

As I said, you are welcome to your views and the modern world. I reject them. And I laugh at your silly name calling.

Do tell, are you a teacher?

Name-calling after you put words in my mouth is a KIND response. Being called goofball is far, far less offensive than what you have said about me. It's also a convenient method for you to ignore what's being said and to paint your opponent as some kind of deviant or "defender of modern world."

The only person lacking a position is you. You're the only one dumb enough to think that a toddler from a rather sheltered family is an example of "pop culture" corrupting the youth or that a 5 year old in 1982 is an example of the sexualization of our "youth."

Yours is a false dichotomy, where either children are angelic and utterly non-sexual creatures until puberty or they are mini-deviants twisted by popular culture.

I assert that the truth would find a home in neither extreme.
