well let's see.....i wouldn't be on here if this was the sex & music list. i joined this list to find out about upcoming releases, facts about artists, discographies, references, reviews & or comments on releases & shows & so on & what have you. & if i did want to discuss sex at all, there would be nothing mature or unperverted about it. how many people do you know that want to have "PG13" discussions about what they do with their genitals when they listen to ae? how many people on this list really give a fuck about my sex life, perverted or not, bola spinning on the table or not?
