One boy, one scene by accident. One wise-ass remark by him. I would love to see evidence that child viewing of the primal scene or even fellatio injures them. I would have paid all my savings for good sexual pictures when I was trying to learn about sex. I can assure your that some accurate films of male-male fellatio or sodomoy viewed along with some decent male-female pornography would have settled my doubts about being gay when I was a teenager. A few art books with ridiculous distorted mannerist nudes were not what I needed. My junior high school (age 12) general science teacher (Charmian Howell) had a sectioned human head in formaldehyde in a jar. It was the coolest thing I ever saw. I drew detailed pictures. She had countless photographs of autopsies and boxes of human bones. A very large number of my classmates became physicians and surgeons. She was warned that teaching evolution would disturb the Baptists, but taught it to us as a secret. It was a special treat. She dared not show us sex laden pictures or she would have been accused of corrupting us -- as dirty a bunch of little boys as ever existed, I suspect. Far more than current percentages engaged in group sodomy and fellatio at 13 and 14. I never observed sodomy, but one kid (Michael XXXX could flip on his shoulders and fellate himself for our amusement. He never had any trouble getting someone to share a tent with him. He's a retired surgeon now. I was interested when reading Skinner's autobiography about similarities to these childhood scenes. Some similarity to Rousseau's confessions. Very few men care to discuss sexual activity (especially "perverted sex" in childhood or youth. It took me many years to understand that what I experienced was quite common for many kids. I wanted my kids to be less obsessed and shamed by sex than I had been. I had to experiment. I still think it went better than I could have expected.
