Is there some kind of implied "horrible" in waiting?
You didn't read what I said. My Dad said he wished children were born without their sex organs. He scared the Hell out of me. He did not believe in sparing the rod. For all I knew he believed in castration, though I really wouldn't have known what that was. All I knew was that I should never act like I knew anything about sex and never speak to a girl if I knew what was good for me.
