Can we please move past this puritanical fear of the existence of sexual acts between consenting adults?
Edited to add:
I doubt this person has ever had an honest conversation on the subject. Aside from that, "I don't understand this" is not an excuse to vote against something, either bring in someone to explain it to you or abstain from voting because you aren't qualified.
"Never got a clear answer" is just code for them admitting they never cared enough to understand
Yep, in my experience "I don't understand this" means "I don't want to understand this."
"Never got a straight answer" would have been perfect.
I don't understand how gears work and never got a clear answer either.
Nobody understands how magnets work either, we should ban those too.

I'm really resisting the urge to post a question on !asklemmy@lemmy.ml on your behalf :)

I'm sorry for writing this, reading back I feel it's in bad taste. Sorry, again.
Better ban 'em.
None of this newfangled machinery to enter our lives. Toil & the Lord shall provide!
