I just found a link to this article that talks about a sex column in the campus newspaper for the University of Southern Mississippi. It’s talking about how the column is very popular with most of the students, but there are a few people that are unhappy and making some noise about it. Granted, I haven’t seen the column itself, but if the University is willing to let it by published, can it really be that offensive the the majority of the population? Anyway, my real reason for posting this was the quote below, which made me laugh very, very hard at it’s semantic stupidity.
“I’m aware that most young people do experiment with sex,” Burnette acknowledges, “but when you print it on a university campus, you’re just opening the doors to so much more.” She says college students already have enough issues to deal with. “They don’t need the pressures of sex involved; they need to concentrate on education,” she says. “I mean, there’s too much sex in today’s world anyway. That’s not what life is all about.”
Oh, so sex isn’t what life’s about? Makes me wonder how this chick got here in the first place then. Must be aliens. And frankly, you get a bunch of young people living together in tiny bedrooms where they are mostly unsupervised for the first time in their lives, there’s going to be the pressure of sex involved. There can’t be that many pheromones in the air without something steamy happening.
Anyway, I thought it was funny. Just my two cents.
Damn it, I knew I should have gone to college.
