I would be curious if the architects of the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan "disgust" you. Hopefully, the mutilation of human bodies in war "disgusts" you worse than a child seeing a penis or even having sex with an adult. I don't advocate the latter two examples either but I know of precious few examples of clergymen and women denouncing those invasions as ferociously as they will denounce "unholy" sexual pleasure. Heck, you can film a movie composed of nothing but scenes of human mutilation and land an R rating. Put a penis or vagina in it and they'll rebrand it as a more restrictive X. The world is a fucked up place and religious institutions are no less the standard bearers of it than despotic governments. Hypocrisy.
Words fail me.
I'm not a female, perhaps you can say a few enlightening words here? Is there something about sex that damages women? A young male in high school wouldn't stop bragging if he got seduced and "nailed" by his attractive female math teacher or something. If an underage female sees a penis, will it traumatize her or worse?
By high school, I had seen Playboy magazines. They looked pretty good to me, much better than a bag of jolly ranchers from a candy store. We all got into this world somehow. At least it generally doesn't involve blood and gore if it's consensual. Rape is an entirely different matter, certainly, but if it's just exposing oneself, then it certainly doesn't seem worse than armed robbery or something. You do know that in the US there is a "sex offender" registry that is free and open to the public to easily learn if any of one's neighbors have committed unlawful sexual activities? If not, now you do. No such registry exists for armed robbers or even drug dealers that I know of. You'd have to dig a bit more to find those offenses from your neighbors.
I've never laid unwanted hands on a female or made sexual advances toward a minor in my life. I'm golden in that department. Most people on this forum including you have probably committed more "adultery" than I have. I've had sex once in my life with a 30-year-old woman who basically jumped on my lap and got the proverbial "balls rolling." If you tell me how it damages an underage girl to see a penis or even have consensual sex with an overage male, then I'll be very happy to recant my previous words.
