Do people discuss sex on the radio in Germany? We can talk about sex on the radio at any time of the day or night if it is done so in a scientific manner, such as would occur if you consulted with a physician or a psychologist. And I think the standards are more lenient late at night.

There is a radio program I listen to occasionally in the car where the sex talk is of a more humorous, ribald nature, but it comes on rather late at night - certainly after 10:00 p.m. The theory is that children won't be awake then. And there is a warning that the program is of a sexually explicit nature. I find the show amusing, and there is a doctor who is very knowledgable.

I have observed simulated sexual intercourse on the cable TV late at night. This I find embarrassing, and turn off immediately, especially because the kids are wandering around, and I don't want them to think I sought it ought, just to avoid uncomfortable conversations. They already think I am weird enough. "Mama watches porn" is not an image I want to project. At any rate, I have seen breasts, female genitalia, and buttocks of both sexes. These are cable shows for subscribers only, but not on stations dedicated to sex shows, e.g., Playboy. I don't know how closely the FCC regulates this.

Oh, wait, then there's HBO. Quite a number of HBO shows have simulated sexual activity, now that I think about it. I think they're all on after 9:00 p.m. I don't think of these as "porn" because the sex takes place as part of an actual story. The "porn" ones appear to be only about sex.
