Starkiller, even though I'm as young as I am, I too have had my mouth washed out and have been spanked many times over the years. I was sent to my room, but my parents paddled me or gave me a tongue-lashing first, so I would go to my room with enough of a heavy conscience that I couldn't bring myself to read or do anything else. Today, being in college and seeing the utter lack of discipline rampant on my campus, I greatly respect how my parents disciplined me, and realize things would be a lot better if other parents did the same thing.
And Jimbo, please quit accusing those of you that disagree with you on this point as being gay or female in an attempt to put holes in their argument. Just because someone put his hormones under control doesn't make him gay or anything else. It just means he's not horny.
