In all of this, what I find more astonishing is that we've normalized violence and made sexuality taboo.
I'd love to know why we've done this. This is fairly unique to Americans, this normalization of violence and shaming of sexuality. I really don't understand where our culture got this notion and why we perpetuate it.
Not that I condone what happened, but puberty is nature's way of telling us we're sexually mature and nature trumps nurture any day - just ask Siegfried and Roy.
