Essentially, the folks who go on about are essentially just can't stop talking about sex. :D

And a McClatchy study none the less! Thanks for that .. great information there.

Now if we as human beings could just get over the hurdle of perception vs. reality. Religious leaders, politicians and media NEED the bogyman and the evildoer. Homosexuals are the evildoers and internet predators lurking around every corner are the boogymen.

I think you are asking to change human nature there.

Our perceptions are our own realities. But on the other hand, if you can better understand how other people see things, you can better understand them, and work from there.

And, of course, make the better and just case.

Which came first, perception or reality? Perhaps it's not a matter of human nature, but the nature of being?

That's a wonderful tool that's complimented well with experience and face to face interaction.

It's unfortunate that in America parenthood is mired with insecurity for so many. So many entities feeding on this fear make billions on the backs of our families, not to mention running down the spirits of our youth at such a young age.

Perhaps this McClatchy study will make a difference and take a big bite out of the fear mongers fat bellies.
