"Same-sex affection" is so ... euphemistic.

Well... yes. But I have spoken with the Rev. Dr. Peter Toon (he lives not far from here), and believe you me, he can be directly blunt (to Americans) in a way only a Brit can achieve.

I understand why he would be oblique, rather than gross, in his title, especially since I'm sure he spends time discussing the urge, as it were, as well as the activities, but still ... "same-sex affection"? It reminds me of when Anoreth read an article about "same-sex unions" in our newspaper and wondered if that meant we shouldn't participate in Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts!
