"A lot of our ancestors left places such as France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands and more to get away from the societies there"
That's true. But my point is that even with their more open attitudes they don't have the obsession with this whole issue as seriously as America does. It seems counter-intuitive but the discrepancy still exists.
Perhaps "America" is just more curious. It's fascinating just how wrong some of our history is, and how little a lot of people know about what is proven or at least now suggested as to human history.
I think it's just plain old curiosity that motivates a lot of people about these things...how civilizations were formed and by whom, when, reformed again later, etc.
Sorry, previous, I meant as to curiosity in civilizations and originations of groups of peoples, not the thread theme of "pornography."
I was writing about a tangent, anyway, so, having just reread what I wrote earlier seems to wrongly suggest I was discussing the thread theme ("pornography") when what I was discussing, rather, with you was as to civilizations and such, history or known history of how people migrated, settled and founded civilizations.
