smx, sex or what ever you call it... i want to know if the abounding presance of it in out socioty bothers you...if you are on the younger end of life does it bother you that when you go to a movie it will most likly with out a doubt have some form of kissing or inuendo or any thing implyed? and if you are on the older end of life compaired to when you were younger have things really changed and if so is this a good thing or a bad thing?

I suppose I'm on the younger side of the scale - I'll be 18 in October - and to answer your question, no, it does not bother me.

If you don't mind my asking though, Antikythera, how old are you? And where have you ever heard someone refer to sex as "smx"? Infact, how is "smx" even pronounced?

iam 17 (18 in feb).
Smx is pronunced sm(as in smile) x ( as in x) so its smx. and yes amoung my friends and i( as well as most of the kids in our school) smx is a common term for sex- its runover from the gamming forums that we visit where the filters are set to catch the word sex.

It's a pretty silly word...but if you'd actually wrote "sex" the thread would probably get deleted, such is the draconian state of NSG moderation these days..

Anti, you're good so far, no worries.

Look, people, there has been a HUGE upsurge lately in thread that exceed the PG-13 limit. If you feel the need to post something that is adult or mature and feel you need to warn of it -- then it's very likely not suitable.

The addition of the PG-13 rating

Prior to 1984, when two films associated with Steven Spielberg triggered calls for yet another addition to the list of ratings, other films had been released that suggested there needed to be a middle ground between PG and R. The summer of 1982 featured Poltergeist, which was highly frightening for a PG-rated film (yet not severe enough for an R). [1] Violent scenes in the 1984 PG-rated films Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (which he directed) and Gremlins (which he produced), were the final straws. Public outcry about the violence led Spielberg to suggest a new PG-13 rating to Jack Valenti, who conferred with theater owners and then introduced the new rating on July 1. The rating still allowed children under 13 to be admitted without a parent or guardian, but it cautions parents about potentially shocking violence or other offensive content. The first movie to gain widespread theatrical release with a PG-13 rating was 1984's Red Dawn (although the first to receive the classification was The Flamingo Kid). It took a year for the PG-13 logo to shift into its current form. The initial rating, instead of using a line of boldface text followed by explanatory description below, bore the wording:

* Rated PG-13: Parents are strongly cautioned to give special guidance for attendance of children under 13.

With the PG rating still being used without a change, it was unclear to some parents at first whether PG or PG-13 films were intended for older viewers. Until 1990, some of the same content that prompted the creation of the PG-13 rating was still being observed in some PG films. For example Big, Beetlejuice, and Nothing in Common were three late 1980s widespread PG releases that contained a sexually-derived expletive in their dialogue (Big and Beetlejuice used fuck while Nothing in Common used dick). The ratings board reacted quickly to parental protests, and over the next couple of years, the number of PG-13 films finally outnumbered the number of PG releases, as standards were tightened for PG classification. Around the turn of that decade, standards were also tightened for PG-13 films, at least for violence, as the ratings board became more likely to issue an R rating for violence that involved bloodshed and/or the slaying of policemen. Except for a brief reversal in 1994, the number of PG-13 films has outnumbered the number of PG films ever since, and the proportion of R-rated films (starting with the boom of home video product in the late 80s) has generally increased at the expense of unrestricted films.

I'd say I'm young (16...17 in November:( ) and romantic scenes are pretty fun though its far better for the guy to not get the woman strait away thus adding a plot and building tension near the end when the guy runs into the church screaming “I love you” or something (it also needs to be a musical for me too love it)

The lack of responsibility in connection with sex bothers me, a lot.

Also, the inability of some people to realize that there is more to life than just sex.

The young age at which people today have sex is also troublesome to me (14 year olds are no longer virgins?! WTF??) simply because I think with sex, especially your first time, there is a lot that goes on emotionally there, and it is better, i think, to wait until you are older and more capable of dealing with those emotions.

But in general, sex is a good thing, there is nothing wrong with it.

Do what works best for you. :)

Just keep in mind that what works for you though, might not be the best choice for everybody.

You are, of course, entitled to change your mind at any time, but if that's honestly how you feel, don't let people pressure you or try to make you feel like there's something wrong with waiting.

If nothing else, it cuts the chances of pregnancy or STDs to nil, barring accident or crime.

It's everywhere.. You can't hide from it. But I don't really mind to be honest. It's just another part of our soceity now--an annoying truth.
Btw, I'm 16 so I'm guess I'm on the younger end.
