When was the last time you thought of the internet as a weird and wonderful place? I can feel my anxiety climbing as I try to find current news stories about sex.

The USA are really weird in that regard. On the one hand very progressive, but in regards to everything sexual they (as a country/culture) are completely prudish. Why, though? They also like to fuck. Why are they so childish that they can’t look at a nipple or even - god forbid - genitals? And, even worse, why can’t they even talk/write about it? One of the central things of any living being, and they treat it like a disease that needs to be purged.

Germany is an outlier in the world when it comes to acceptance of nudity in public and in the media.

Sure? I would at least extend that to Europe. The scandinavian countries, France, Spain, … they are all quite open with nude presentations in media, from what I can tell.
