I think leading a conservative family-oriented life would require an understanding of the evils out there and the necessity to protect children from them
It is naive to think this man did not know what sodomy is. The standard locker room language would have made him plenty aware of all nature of behavioral descriptions.
There was a time and place where sodomy was not discussed at all. Where the concept of ‘rape’ wrt men-men, was not understood....even in a locker room. We have become so desensitized that we forget.
