I did not make any such analogies, nor did I call it a loosening of standards. When you called Americans more uptight than the rest of the world, I mentioned that we do not eat dogs, which I thought showed the limits of using foreign standards to judge our society. When someone said that breast were used for nourishing infants, I mentioned urinating in public to show the limits of the "natural function" argument. I have not mentioned public intercourse at all. And I referred to a general loosening of standard of dress and decorum, which may be a good or a bad thing...
