ugh, 'growing up' doesn't mean 'no sex please',

growing up is understanding how complex narratives about the human experience sometimes include a sexual nature, and that some people just enjoy that aspect in general and that's okay.

I don't know if this an American puritanism revival thing or what, but it's odd to see the absolute rejection under the banner of i guess "that's just for kids"?

Sex-negative mindsets are dumb. It's a core functionality of our nature. People mistook modesty for anti-sex and here we are.
