Guns and Sex

Guns and Sex. Two topics that are guaranteed to raise ratings at the box office. Two things that people find of such interest that human culture seems insanely preoccupied with them.

Isn't it strange then that the left wants to teach responsible use of sex while totally banning guns, except for government use, while the right wants to teach the responsible use of guns while banning sex outside of marriage. This despite the evidence that neither approach seems to work well, while those cultures that have banned both have become irrelevant. At the same time those cultures that have taught both, such as the Victorian,  have flourished. Don't tell me that the Victorians had prohibitions against sex. That was only in the context of marriage. There were plenty of brothels available.

It leaves one wondering about the control issues of both sides, as well as the similarities between marriage and government.
