Yep. Basically: simplifying words to make them easier for children to pronounce and thus learn: good. Avoiding saying words because they have to do with icky anatomy and sex: bad.

I'm just reminded of what a Cialis drug rep once told me at a drug rep luncheon. That viagra commercials are all about "Dudes getting dude shit done." Cialis commercials more often than not depict loving couples, because ED is something that affects both partners intimately.

What a waste of everyone's time and outrage

Isn't this guy also the dude from the DirectTV commercial with the giraffe?

the "you don't let a dry vag get in the way of your sexy-time" ladies over at the Osphena commercial.

I'm super careful to differentiate between vulva and vagina as well, and will correct Little BallofStress on it, though Mr. BallofStress recently requested that I not make that distinction in the supermarket after a conversation led to some very odd stares...

my son got in trouble in 1st grade when, while the other boys were looking at a book in the library with a picture of a mermaid and giggling at her "boobs", he said quite firmly "they're called BREASTS!" And we got a note home telling us our son said BREASTS in school. I gave him a high five.

Plus you just know that dude is going to grow up to become a selfish lover because no doubt he has also been taught you should never eat things you find on the sidewalk.

I'd tell them your daughter was traumatized by the thought that her vulva was for people to step on.

Poor Johnny.
