Fasting

I think you are imprinting your own wacky childhood experiences on the rest of america to make whatever kooky situation you had when you were young feel more normal to you.

Ah, haha! Hardly my friend. In fact, I was a virgin until I was 20. Just like other discussions we've had, you have this notion of "normal" that just doesn't exist. Yes, granted, a large number of children have no sexual experiences until their late teens or later (though of course, many of these do self-sexual stimulation). But I think if you pic up any psych literature you will find that many children do have the experiences I've described. I feel a bit like whateverman42 here, whereas he feels like some moneyed interest is controlling things behind the scenes, I think there is more than the usual social mores going on behind closed doors. Psych surveys are notoriously difficult because people don't like answering questions about this sort of thing. But if you look into some of the literature, or even the Kinsey report, you'll see there is some truth in my claims.

[glennjridge]

you said 1 in 5 girls have their first sexual expeirence at the hands of their own family.
you or this kinsey report are saying its happening, its just hasnt been reported.

1 in 5, why not 1 in 3...why not 1 in 100, 1 in 500,000? we wont know.its not being documented as its apparently not being reported.

Glenn, it's just another one of his ways to try and instigate a full on argument, as he cannot go down the road he usually goes down to get his kicks. Quite scary really for someone to come up with such a bizarre statement. You have to question the kind of websites he is visiting.....

Whatever turns some people on, i suppose

I believe it's your statement that it trying to provoke. At least Glenn is honest in his misguided judgments. And yes I make some out of the ordinary statements. But if it actually scares you, if you think because I discuss something I participate in that activity, that's not a good judgment to make of anyone. I don't expect people to be able to discuss a taboo topic openly. There IS to much fear. There can't even be a discussion. There are a lot of 0 tolerance people. But I live in a country where a 16 year old texts a picture of boobs to her bf, it gets shown around, and all of a sudden she's labeled with sex offender for the rest of her life. I don't know if that upsets other people, but it upsets me. You can say she was not so smart to take those pictures, but in what way can we equate her with a guy who forces himself on an 8 year old? That is what is truly scary. I get a pit in my stomach when I think about the lives ruined.

This always makes me wet myself. I think it's the way they use the Challenger footage. I reckon that whole episode is the funniest thing ever.

lol @ Paul Daniels' stress when he spoke out about that episode.

How much weight did you lose on your fast, Firth of Forth? Oddly I have just partaken of an involuntary fast of my own as I have had norovirus. After the best part of three days with zero food and drink I have lost a big fat four pounds.

It's hard to tell because the scale at my gym isn't the best, but it looks like around 6-7 pounds (Remember, I'm over 300 pounds, so that's 3-4 pounds for someone half my size).
