Fleaman:I'm not aware of there being a problem at all. Why should there be??
Can't a guy make an honest observation?
The defensive reaction is interesting, though...
who was DFd because of "immorality"?

You're not. They're just poking fun at your apparent obsession.

Do you feel as if your time spent in the WTS was sexually repressed?
Yeah, very much so. But you've gotta admit their doctrine goes against all natural feelings that we have programmed in our minds and bodies. Which only creates a bunch of hypocrates who act as saints but harbour all sort of "immoral" feelings.

It's the Entered Apprentice from the Cremaster Cycle. I'll leave you to do the research.

exactly, which is one of the main reasons I rejected the bible and any repressive brand of religion - it's a sure fire recipe for breeding all types of emotionally stunted individuals

LT, I count myself amongst the ranks of the emotionally stunted, I think it takes a while to see how people in the real world deal with things outside of a 'theocratic' framework.
S'funny, I was chatting to my kid sister last night (who da'd recently) and the main thing I noticed was a lack of maturity especially when related to sexual relationships. She's not particularly grown up anyway despite being 21 but has a very stunted view of male/female relationships overall, not just in relation to sex but in the way she operates around men. It's almost as though the witnesses remove any chance of operating in a normal social environment so kids don't know how to relate when they break free. I know I wasn't so devoid of social skills but I do remember feeling awkward around people and finding it difficult to work out how to start conversations for quite some time after leaving the dubness.

And would that be a general bible and/or religion thing, or just a dub / fundamentalist thing?
Most people have some kind of religious predilection, and grow up just fine, IMHO
