Frederica Mathewes-Green sees the same phenomenon. In her brilliant essay published in the August/September 2005 edition of First Things, Mathewes-Green describes this new reality with striking clarity.

The title of her article is Against Eternal Youth. A copy of that article can be found here.

A list of other articles by her can be found here.

I'm glad I read the article. This line made me laugh, because this morning a poster took a major snit when a couple of us asked the moderators to remove a reference to defecation that the person had added to an article title.

Somehow the word "butt" has become hilarious to young and old. There doesn't seem to be a way to stop this, but if it's any comfort to you, it was probably the same in the time of Chaucer.

I should have realized he was just being Chaucerian :-).
