I just read the most recent review by OCS. This always strikes me strange how he keeps saying that people are portraying sex completely wrong. He keeps saying that people don’t just jump into bed with each other with out getting married. It seems that this is exactly how it act. It leads to loads of unwed mothers and fatherless children. I work in management with over 600 people and it’s such a norm for people to have children out of wed lock. I just assume that if a young lady is under 25 and has a child it’s out of wed lock.

I know that’s not what us conservatives want, but still to say this is not an accurate portrayal of life in our time is a mistake. It would be more appropriate to say this type of portrayal of life is what leads to heartache. It’s that heartache that never seems to get the attention it deserves. Or to say it glorifies the action and never really shows the consequences of those actions. I don’t like the fact that this is how life is but I also don’t hide my eyes from it’s reality.

Am I being too picky?

Topic on the other side
This has been pretty well debated on the other side. [Smile]

Hm. Me, I assume that is a young lady has a child without being married that it was out of wedlock. Age has little to do with it.

I though it was "OSC's recent review and [OSC's recent] sex"... 8-S
