You can thank the Christian Right for that one.

Aren't they dandy?

My friends talk openly about it.

Yeah, most of my Social Group and closer friends are very open about it, and most of us are close enough that were all Friends with Benefits as it were (Benefits as in: Oral, Casual sex, Makeouts, etc) with no real strings attached.

But on a whole its taboo to the general population, at least of America, because of the Christian Right.

Who says it's taboo? I thought Americans were generally accepting of sex. Aren't we? I sense it all over the place, maybe not with my nose . Then again, I have noticed an eerie silence grow over a crowd in a movie theater when sex is introduced to the screen. That could just be everyone secretly fantasizing about getting some though?
