I see someone has things well in hand. And they seem to have a firm grip on the situation at hand.

Everybody does it, nobody admits it.

That goes all the way to the top of every organization in the world.

14-17 year olds in America just go to frat parties. So much safer.

"The scheme has angered Spain's Roman Catholics and conservative media."

The mind boggles at the implications of the Catholic Church being upset with masturbation. My fellow posters have already made all of the obvious jokes so I won't.

A real comment: Looking back at my childhood I remember how I learned and it was rather an embarrassing event. It would have been much better if someone had just told me how or if I could have felt comfortable enough to ask. Would have saved a bit of pain and discomfort from trying out a locker room rumor. Of course our society is so hung up about childhood sexuality that any adult even contemplating having an honest talk let alone a "show and tell" risks jail time.

The Catholic church would prefer any any masturbation of youths was done by its priests.

Extremadura????I thought it was a joke.....,or the name of a condom.

Funny isnt it? I think most people wont get the coincidence and therefore the irony.

In spanish "extrema" means extreme and "dura" means hard.

Sweet. Anything that annoys the Catholic Church is just fine with me.

Wait 'till somebody lets the Spanish religious authorities in on the evolutionary principles according to Tomlin:

There is vast scientific evidence that humans stood on their own two feet, not to run down elk, not to cool the brain, not to see over the grass, not to improve our swimming, not to gather fruit, not to throw better, but simply to free the hands for ...
