Yes, I was shocked to say the least. Everybody, and especially parents, should see this show. It will change your world view forever.

I see this as a consequence of the puritanical element in our society which would have us feel ashamed to talk about sex. If we talked more freely and openly about sex and it's proper role we would be better served as a society. Instead we consider sex a "hush" subject and some people don't get the right message.

Sex is good...in the proper context. **cue Cyndi Lauper's She Bop**

@nap- maybe that's the problem? Try being a little more discreet. Just an idea ;)

Really though- it's an important topic.

I know we have a mix of young and not so young here, so keep in mind that trust is something that shouldn't be given too easily. I'd be uneasy if any of you youngsters thought it would be totally harmless and OK to meet one of us oldies privately in real life.

You don't know us that well. (I believe I'm mostly harmless, but you don't know that, do you?)

Here are some cyber safety links:

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children

From the same place, but guidance for safer online use-
For teens

And from the Washington State Attorney General
Tips for Kids

That's why you don't be a n00b and don't do dumb stuff on the web.

I treat the online life almost like real life when it comes to safety. Don't ever meet someone online in real life. (duh) I wouldn't want to go to a stranger's house, or have them come to mine in real life. I wouldn't want a stranger to know all my info.

Obviously don't give out personal info etc etc the normal stuff they always say.
