I am going with Brian on "harm reduction". If we can vaccinate all the boys and girls against the cancer causing HPV virus, then we can have a discussion on sexual mores. I'm old and to me, oral sex is most definitely sex but I wish the Guardisil vaccine was mandatory. Colleges all require menigitis vaccination, realisically the chances of a college student having oral sex are much higher than getting menigitis, yet the HPV vaccine is not mandatory. Give the usual religious exemptions and move on, please. Sorry, I know I am preaching to the choir here at OCF.
Keep the Faith
