This is a cheap tactic, but does have some visceral monkey-brain appeal. “I am superior to you” is much easier than logic. Yeah, I’ve noticed this. I’ve also noticed that people denigrate any man who is known to not have had sex, and will denigrate any man _period_ by _suggesting_ that he has not had sex. ---

They’re typically sociopaths, who are actually highly adept at gaming the social system to stay free and able to exercise their will to violence. Serial killers usually ARE losers.

It’s crazy or at least ignorant people in a position to dictate what kind of sex education others will get, too. [The Chinese government](http://www.slate.com/id/2234600/) tried encouraging people’s cultural reluctance to talk about sex or contraception and censoring movies and the internet as a way of discouraging premarital sex. It… [ummm, isn’t working so well](http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2009-07/30/content_8489656.htm) in terms of making abortions rarer there. ---

I could be mistaken, but isn’t **Smartalx** a high school student? I thought I saw that posted somewhere - if so, I’d respectfully suggest that this pitting may not be merited. High school kids believe all kinds of goofy things, most of which are cured by college or the real world. 🙂 ---

High school kids believe all kinds of goofy things, most of which are cured by college or the real world. 🙂 Hell, I believed several goofy things last week, and I’ve been out of high school for far too long. One goofy thing I still believe - and please don’t try and convince me otherwise - MY parents never have sex for enjoyment or entertainment. And please allow my children to believe the same goofy thing. And certainly old people don’t like having sex for the fun of it… And I’m not old… See, lots of goofy things I still believe. ---

Aww - sometimes it is just a great deal of fun to strongly hint to our adult children that we are having lots of sex still. 😃 It doesn’t bother me that someone who is ignorant about it has all sorts of absurd opinions. He should, however, stop flapping his gums about it. ---
