Its kind of a mixed thing. On one hand I have a couple of mid-teen relatives and the dances they do today are basically sex with your clothes on. Having said that, I lived in a small midwest town for several years during my early teens and I can say they are heavily conservitive - as we have seen with the last election.

I guess I'm a little more liberal. My view is; Elivs was considered too sexy at one point and now his moves seem rather tame. If you tell a young adult they can't do something, that's the same as saying try it, its exciting.

I don't know, I guess I call somewhere in the gray area on that one. I beleive that at some point, there are gestures that are not appropriate no matter what, but I also have seen schools and entire towns deem something completely innocent as "evil" or a "sin" and that just burns me.
