Oh! MY GOD!  Boys are curious about sex!!  What is this world coming to?

I think sarcasm is the only appropriate response to such paranoia.  One
sure way to get kids looking at and looking for pornography is to try to
block it.  How many of us adult males snuck looks at Playboy and othe
rsuch magazines when we were kids?  I know I did.  Of course I only read
the stories.  ;-)
